Dimitri,

You can use the Nomorecarts CIS with any of the ink sets available including
all the MIS inks. I have been using their CIS on my 1280's for a couple of
years now with MIS, Piezo and PiezoTone inks. Just be careful that the arm
stays up and doesn't let the tubing droop. I added an extra Velcro strap on
the right edge of the printer housing that goes over the top of the end of
the support arm and tubes to keep it in place. Also watch out for the lid
support bumpers coming loose and dropping into the printer. My only
complaint about the CIS is that the adhesives they use don't stand up over
time.

It absolutely can. Used one for years.
