That makes a lot more sense... that would be the 2000P technology being 
used in the 5500.  Being that the 7500 wide carriage is a 7000 with new 
heads for the pigmented inks, I suspect you are correct.

Now, what worries me is that the 1290 sounds like the 1270 ink set, 
which means potential failure of the cyan dyes again, 6 colors (I want a 
four color system) and that darn "intellicartridge" meaning it can't be 
refilled.  Hmmm....
