For what it's worth, I spoke with someone at InkjetGoodies yesterday
about the Septone system, which they resell, and they reported
poor results trying to refill the carts that ship with the
Septone system. I didn't ask them to elaborate, unfortunately. 
I got the impression that print quality suffered in some respect.

Of course, that's second hand. If R9 or others are reporting that
refilling is a reliable option, I'd be interested to know it. One
of the downsides of the system seems to be that, without refilling 
carts or using the CFS, you're spending $18/cart. Based on that
conversation, I had decided that if I purchased the Septone system,
it would only make economic sense with the CFS.
