different.>>
 
Thanks for the warning. I'll keep my eyes open for this possibility. I  think 
I got lucky in that regard, since the set of prefilled EB6 carts I got  seem 
to be producing prints exactly as described by Paul Roark in his PDF  article 
on the subject. In any case, I just ordered the 4 oz size bottles of  Eboni 6, 
as well as the refill "hardware" you listed. 
 
By the way, is it just me or do others here find the MIS website  rather 
difficult to navigate? The part numbers and links provided by you and  others on 
this forum have been quite handy, since I personally have been almost  entirely 
unable to find any of them by simply navigating the site. The Epson  1400 is 
not even listed in the printer choices when one is looking for inks. 
 
<<Go to inksupply.com -> Refill kits -> Refill instructions  -> Refilling
Epson R260, R380, RX580 Series Cartridges (these are the same  basic
type as the 1400's)>>
 
EXACTLY what I was looking for.
 
Thanks again.
 
Rob
