Re: Refillable carts & auto reset chips

2013-02-18 by Michael

Distributors chime in.<br><br>Pursuing this issue of ARC carts a little
further, I emailed the  customer service representatives at both Ink Owl
and Precision Colors.  Here's what they say:<br><br>From Ink Owl (<a

href="http://inkowl.com"><span class="yshortcuts"
id="lw_1361205147_0">inkowl.com</span></a>)<br>A couple of questions
about your ink and cartridges for my Epson R2400.<br><br>a)  Do your
empty carts with auto-resetting chips work with the Epson  printer
driver to show the declining level of the inks in the driver's  ink
cartridge graphic? Or, do they only show full when they reset and do 
not show the ink declining in the Epson graphic?<br><br><b>They show any
accurate level.</b><br><br>b) Is your ink made by Image Specialists in
Michigan?<br><br><b>NO, the ink is made by GSC Imaging in the USA. It
works fantastically.</b><br> <br>Thanks,<br><br>And from
PrecisionColors:<br><br><b>On these, the ink levels will move down as
the ink is consumed. When it  goes to zero and it is refilled and reset,
they are both coordinated again.<br>On  this particular iteration, the
ARC resetter can reset to full on  demand, if you decide to top off all
at the same time. This way all  colors are refilled and all reset to
full at the same time.<br></b><br><a id="yui_3_7_2_1_1361141185244_4739"

the ink levels in the  carts as declining in the graphic in the Epson
printer driver.   Comments?<br>
