                2 months ago I bought 2 sets of Mis UT7 cartridges 
for my 2200.I did so after checking with many exprets on this site 
and ohers that there were no clogging issues with those inks and was 
told there were no. For the first 2 weeks ,I spent so much time 
paper and ink trying to fix the clogs that I ended up throwing  my 
used set and a brand new unopened set in the garbage in TOTAL 
DISGUST! I have no clue how anyone can recommend those inks unless 
you are a clog maniac! The cassettes are poorly constructed and they 
leaked all over my desk. Since I started using QTR,I have renewed 
interest in an ISOLATED ebony black but I wish someone would tell me 
how to PREVENT/TREAT those clogs
