You can get them for about $10 at media street. If they don't have them,

Thanks for the leads on that. I decided to just order a complete new
CFS from MIS. For $120 it includes the ink (I got FSN) and a
completely new kit. Otherwise I'll have to buy at a minimum a vacuum
syringe and virgin carts. This alone would be $45, and then inks about
$52 (total: $96). And then I'm still not sure if I'd have all I need.
For only $24 more dollars I get an entirely new kit to start with from
scratch with clean tubes and complete instructions, etc. Since I've
never set up and used a CIS/CFS before I thought this would be best. I
have two 1160's so once I get this one going and feel I know what I'm
doing I'll consider buying the parts for the other CIS and go from
there.

Thanks again people.

Best regards,
 Richard
