Two CFS?

Two CFS?

2004-02-03 by Steve Kale

I have not used a CFS before.  Would it be possible to have two CFS, one for B&W and 
one for colour, and swap them in the same way that one could swap cartridges?  or 
are the tubes fixed to the printer in a manner that would make doing so a pain?

Consider two printers or refilling carts instead. My experience with
CFS' is that it takes a bit of tweaking and diddling to get them
working perfectly again each time you lift up the carts from the printer.

Thanks.  I currently have a 2100 but would like a 4000 for the extra size.
Two 2100s is not too absurd but 2 4000s would be a bit much for me (they
will be £1,750 each...when they are available).  Ok two more questions.
Could the 2100 CFS be used on the 4000 if I get one? If I were to get a CFS
for colour, is it is easy to pull the CFS cartridges place them to one side
and insert B&W cartridges (without CFS) for B&W work or do the tubes get in
the way etc?
