I had problems with MIS refills in my Epson Stylus 900 - color match
problems - but their Canon ink for my i960 is so close in color tone to OEM
ink that I would have difficulty picking out side-by-side prints from the
same photo. MIS was very cooperative in trying to help with the Epson
problem and subsequently comped me their Canon products to compensate me for
the problems with the Epson. I would stresss that no harm came to my Epson
printer and the downside was some frustration and wasted paper (from Costco,
so not much cost). To answer Measekite's response - I am not a regular
heavy user of these inks. My work goes in spurts. With OEM carts refilled
up to 8 times I finally had one that didn't feed well after sitting for a
week unused. I replaced all of the refilled OEM carts (8 months of use with
many refills) with MIS virgin carts I filled with their inks, and everything
ran just fine. After the printer sat idle for more than a week I did a
dozen 4x6's and 2 8x10 prints. No problems. MIS resells inks under their
own label. Neil Slade said, at one time, that they were Image Specialist
inks. I haven't tried to verify that info, but I've found the product to be
excellent.
