I had the 1280 and MIS inks for a while and had loads of clogging
issues. If you don't print *every day* with that combination it will
clog. Well, I like printing fine but not every day. 

I only use Epson inks in the 1280 now and it no longer clogs. For B&W
I moved to the C86 with the MIS EZ cartridges and have had no problems
at all with great results. I wish they could figure out as cheap and
easy a package for a bit larger printing though.
