Re: [Digital BW] (Newbie question) - Using a 1270 with MIS VM cartridges

2002-03-06 by Martin Wesley

Tom,

I have had the NoMoreCarts (same as Niagara and Conetech) CIS on my 1280 for
6 months and all that is required is to answer the Epson driver's question
to whether you really want to use none Epson cartridges with a "Yes" each
time before you make your first print after turning the printer on. Not a
big deal at all and the cartridges always reads full. Running Windows 2000
BTW.
