Getting the 1160 ink counter...

2002-02-26 by Austin Franklin

I believe this procedure will give you the ink counter:

1) Make sure the printer is turned off.
2) Make sure the printer has paper loaded.
3) Hold down the load/eject button, then press and release the power button.
4) When the power light starts to flash, release the load/eject button.

It should print one page with the ROM version number, ink counter, and a
nozzle check pattern.

5) After the page finishes, turn the printer off.

Let me know if this works...  I tried it on the 1270...and it printed out as
stated, with 6 number fields, which is the ink count number, I don't know,
but that shouldn't be too hard to figure out by printing a page after a head
cleaning ;-)
