When using an MIS syringe to refill one of the new Epson 21/2200 carts is the syringe and 
bottom fill adaptor (MIS-BADP used to draw out 1ml of ink to prime the cartridge) the only 
thing needed?  Can the adaptor be used to fill the syringe and cartridge in the first place?  
Can the syringes just sit on a shelf or in a bag between use?  Should I get the 10ml 
syringes or 30ml?  Also presumably one needs 8 of these - one for each cartridge.

(Of course I also need to buy the chip resetter.)

Steve,
I only have one syringe, just wash it between colors and after when you finished using it.
Yes, the bottom fill adaptor can just be left on all the time to fill the syringe as well as filling the
cart.

What I have is:
one bottom fill adaptor
one syringe
one resetter

Did you buy the new (clear) refillable carts from MIS?
I have the older ones and have nothing but trouble with foam buildup. I just ordered the new clear carts
today. There supposed to be more refill friendly and not have the foam problems.

Thanks Jake.  I have not yet bought anything - just wanting to make sure I
get everything I need in one go.

You also need a 1/2 inch needle tip for the syringe--the bottom 
fill adapter does not work for injecting the ink into the fill 
hole on the top of the cart. MIS sells the needle tips, of course,
part number MIS-NEEDLE-3000.
