I've been trolling around on the group a little for the first time today and I've seen a lot of mention of the MIS inks. I'm curious about people's experience with the K4 inks with an Epson 2400 and how you guys feel about them compared to the actual K3 inks from Epson. Also how well do the spongeless carts work? If anyone knows. Thanks. Brian

I'm using K4 in my 2400 and can tell no difference from the K3, except when it comes time to pay for them. I'm a fan of the spongeless carts. They almost always worked well for me although others have had a few glitches. If you want 100% hassle free, no matter the costs, Epson K3 is the ink for you. If you want the same results and don't mind refilling carts to save some money MIS K4 is what you want.

I did have to make new profiles for color prints for my R2400 but I expected that. I had no problem refilling the spongeless carts and I am woefully inept at that sort of thing. I am a very happy camper with this setup. In the past I had a CIS (on an 1160), and am delighted with the ability to refill now that the process is so simple. Linda

I can't speak for spongeless carts, but I've been using the MIS Pro inkset with sponge-filled carts in my 2200 for around five months now and have experienced no problems -- and I have refilled the same black and gray carts at least 4 times.

Question: can I replace my K3 carts with K4 as they get empty or do I have to buy a whole fresh set? Norman Miller Bob Michaels wrote:
