The open, but highly relevant, question for me is if the lousy Dmax comes from the microbanding you mentioned or that this happens because the HP PK is just not designed for use in an Epson. Does anyone else have experience?

Actually, originally I was considering to use MIS PK iso undiluted HP PK for cost reasons: I still have MIS PK in stock and in the HP 70 cartridges HP PK was more expensive. I dropped that idea as in HP 91 cartridges HP PK is much cheaper. But your experience could bring that idea back on the table. 

I only just subcribed to the Aardenburg database, so have not yet had to opportunity to delve in the data: Is MIS PK worse than HP PK in terms of longevity?
