That's what I use too. MIS now has some "clear cartridges"
that make refilling a very simple task. It appears to be so
easy that the market for their "Continuous Ink System" (the
external bottles) is more or less gone. I use the CIS, but
I print so much I don't have any problems with air getting
into the system or clogging. It just churns them out. I've
made literally hundreds of letter-sized prints since
January. Not a single problem (and it's still not time to
refill ... soon, but not yet).
