I don't keep track of where all the carts come from.  I use MIS and inkjetcarts.us as main suppliers of such.

The problem was with the 1800 carts that had small sponges in the air inlet.  It interacted with the Eboni-6 base.  Other ink bases were OK, including the C6 base I often use.  The same cart type was used for the C84 on, and 2400.  I think MIS is finally out of this batch of carts.  

Many of the older MIS 2200 carts had foam in them, but it appeared to be OK with Eboni-6.  

I try to avoid all foam in carts.  It actually can work well, but I often put in lots of different versions of the ink in the same cart, rinsing out the old as I go.  So, whether foam works or not in general, it does not work for me.  Both MIS and inkjetcarts.us have totally foamless carts that seem very similar at this point.
