Re: CIS

2006-09-26 by Richard Orban

I used (AAubreyBodine.com) a CIS on my 1280 and my four 890s from 
NoMoreCarts, MediaStreet, and InkJetArt for several years -- wore out 
the printers but the CIS worked flawlessly.  I was printing A7 size 
note cards (6.75" x 4.75" image on 7" x 10" card stock).  Dropped the 
ink cost from $0.35 per card to $0.005 per card (Black Only - couldn't 
tolerate the metamerism of color printing on the 890s).  If you're 
doing volume printing, it is the only way to fly (IMHO).
