| The 1160 was the last 13" 4-color Epson printer using unchipped carts,
| making them ideal for CIS/CFS mods. They are quiet, feed thick paper well,
&
| have a 4 picoliter droplet size. I have 3 1160's running 3 different
inksets
| plus a spare in waiting; my 1200 sees very little use anymore. I use the
| original MIS quad for BW, & get prints that look as good (or better) than
| anything I did in the darkroom.
|
| I don't know what they cost now, but I would weigh that expense vs the
| increased cost of buying a chipped CIS & two extra bottles of ink for one
of
| the newer printers.
