Yes. 1430 is a 300 dollar printer . . . head tech is very different than the R1900, so curves (either direct Piezo .quads or descriptors, etc.) must reflect that different dot size in the K.

Piezography curves, both K7 and P2 (K6)  from the x880 printers work just fine in the 1900 (and 2000), once you reorder the contents of the .quad files to reflect the order of the ink shades in the 1900.  So the head technology in the 1900 is quite different to the 1430 but identical to the K3 printers.  If that's true for the 1430, then I suspect that it's also true for the older 1400/1410 models as well.
