My prefilled carts were refillable.  I also bought the neutral and warm carts and I switch 
them all the time.  The only hard part is using the chip resetter insofar that it requires 
some trial and error to get it to register full. Reset the chips before refilling the carts.

I tried the Photo K with the Kirkland photo glossy, nice look, but the cart was always 
clogging.  However, I pretty much stay with EEM/HRag papers and Eboni ink.

Some ink tone observations with EEM and HRag Papers:

Neutral,  I use Eboni - Neutral - Neutral -Neutral
Very slightly warm, I use Eboni - Neutral - Neutral - Warm 

It seems to me that on EEM paper, the E-N-N-W ink positions looks about the same as the 
E-N-N-N on the HRag paper.  The E-N-N-N ink positions on EEM appear ever so slighlty 
cool. But, that is only how it appears to me.

The Paul Roark acv curve for EEM works rather well.  I use it most of the time on EEM.
