RE: [Digital BW] MIS Newsletter

As I understand MIS, they are going to be very cautious.  So, no more carts
until the dust settles.  Assuming Epson prevails, MIS will not be selling
carts until it can obtain ones that are not covered by the Epson patents.

 

If carts are purchased on eBay or otherwise available, then MIS will sell
the inks.  I think they'll also sell all the necessary accessories.  I'm not
aware of any prohibitions relating to re-filling existing carts from any
source.

 

For those of us who have carts, it's business as usual.  For new customers,
they'll have to get the carts from somewhere else.

 

Hopefully the forum members will be able to help prospective B&W ink users
with information needed to get the carts.

Am I correct in reading today's MIS Newsletter to say that they will
no longer honor orders for Epson compatible cartridges -- either
filled or empty, but they will continue to sell refill kits including
the ink and tools necessary to fill the carts? That would mean that
if you do not now have the cartridges, you will not be able to get
them from MIS. However, if you have or can get the refillable carts,
you still would be in business. Any ideas about what that means for
chip resetters?
