Paul,

I've never heard about this problem with the MIS cartridges before. I've
used them for a long time and have never had that issue. Was that the clear
refillable cartridges with sponges?

They do seem to wear out more quickly than Epson cartridges though. After
severall refills I'm having problems getting good nozzle checks on some of
them, always after removing the cartridges from the printer and putting them
back in. Once I get a good nozzle check it usually stays good until I have
to refill the cartridge again.

I'm going to try a CIS from Mandev now, It uses spongeless cartridges and is
supposed to be easily replacable so I an still switch between BW and color
inks when I want to.
