Digital BW, The Print

Yes, I use UT7 with 2200 and have to unclog between uses, even if only
after a day. That's an expense I accept because I like the looks of
UT7. I don't know if that's typically 20% but it surely is sometimes,
when multiple unclogs are necessary...which means each cart costs an
extra $2-3 if one compares to OEM.

From the beginning I knew/believed  clogs were certain with MIS and
every none-OEM, and I've not seen any credible report to the contrary.
I've had a grand total of one clog with OEM in that machine in several
years. 

Is Piezo any less clog-prone? I can't think why it would be and I'm
not interested in experimentation.

than enough to offset any price advantage, at least with prefilled
carts. Maybe with a CFS it would still be worth it for me, but I
haven't the time to spend just getting the nozzles to work.
