Dave,

Check out the "Ink Conservation" section of the review of the new HP
9180. It's interesting how they deal with clogging in that new printer.

Conserving ink is good since it isn't cheap. Check out the comparison of
MSRP Ink Costs per ML for various manufacturers half way down on this
page (green section).

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.<<
