I've used the 1270 with MIS UT2 cartridges, and it worked very well.   
My best results were with the
quadtone rip.

I recommend cartridges over CIS systems---like mehrdad, I used a CIS  
(except on an 1160)
and ended up hating it because of clogging issues.  It needed to be  
used quite often (like daily)
to avoid ink sucking back through the lines, apparently letting the  
head dry out and causing clogs.

This setup gives excellent black and white results with surprisingly  
little effort.
