Digital BW, The Print

I am going to retire my 1280, fitted with an MIS UT2
CIS, due to persistant striping probably due to a
printhead failure.  I see that the Stylus Photo 900
uses the same ink set as the 1280, so my question is,
has anyone used a 1280 UT2 CIS in a 900?  What was
your experience?  Has anyone used this CIS in any
other Epson printer?
