Ferdinand -
I've wondered the same thing at times, but it's probably more that  
most on this
list simply use the other ink choices - no conspiracy :-)))))))

I've used Cone's inks since they first came out - that must be around  
seven years
now.  They have improved considerably, no longer clog, and the extra  
cost has always seemed
worthwhile, to me. (I have them in my 2200, and use a 2400 for color).

If you can still get them, Jon's carts for K7 can be refilled, even  
though he didn't
advertise that, so last month, I bought a couple sets of inks from  
him (basically
to have extra cartridges in the future) and bulk inks in 4 ounce  
bottles. That
brings the cost down considerably.

Just one man's opinion!
