Re: What's with MIS?

2007-08-17 by matt@matthaber.com

For what it's worth, I've been using the MIS inks (K4)(first, a set of carts, then bulk inks filled into those same cartridges) in my 2400 for almost 2 years.

I find that I generally have had no clogs, except under two circumstances: 1) when the printer has been unused for several weeks and 2) right after I refill the carts, I generally must run 2 or 3 cleaning cycles, and then I'm fine.

I have had several chips go bad, but I've simply replaced them with other MIS ones or Epson chips that I have around.
