Great.  Glad it's working for you.

I agree with FinnK.  Buying the bulk inks is so inexpensive there's no
reason not to use a good pigment ink.  The Piezo matte black or Eboni
from MIS will both do great.  I think in a 1200 you can use just about
anything - someone else maybe will step in here with more on that...

Regards,
Clayton
