I was refilling my R2400 carts using MIS supplies - I had only 1 leaky
cart & I just quit using it. I had a few bad chips also. I finally
laid in a big supply of extra carts, chips, syringes, and an extra
bottom fill adapter or two so I could set up an assembly line at
refill time. This made things go faster but no more pleasant.

What finally turned me off was the need to refill often because the
carts for the R2400 are small. My Sundays went: drink coffee, read the
paper, pp photos, print...oh wait can't print need to
refill....sigh...Seems like I was refilling more than printing. It was
a such a hassle that I found myself not printing as much...hmmm that
is the opposite of what I wanted.

I switched to an inkrepublic CIS system - wonderful decision! I bought
an empty one and just used the MIS inks I had on hand. I've had other
brands of CIS systems in the past but this one is an engineering
marvel. No affiliation...but very happy customer. And their customer
service is beyond good.

Sorry to hear that MIS is having QC problems - I like those folks. If
you print alot and your time is important, a CIS pays for itself very
quickly.
