CIS - continuous ink system.  The only way to fly.  I had one on a 
previous Epson and totally loved it.  Ink cost was about 15 times less 
than carts.  So cheap it was no longer a consideration.  Paper cost 
became far more dominant.  I replaced it with a newer Epson but have not 
purchased a new ink deliver system yet.
