Re: Epson 1430 and MIS inks

2013-02-23 by rossfmj

I am using MIS Auto Reset Carts in a 1430 (well, it's called a 1500w in the UK).  And as Paul says, they go out of sync with the Epson Level thingy.  Topping them all up at the same time seems to cause issues, as they are not recognised or do not recognise themselves as being full unless they were showing as empty or near empty.

Ideally, it may be an idea to have two sets of carts, with a full set always at hand and only replace each one when it is showing empty, or just refill the one with the indicator light on.  I have not had the printer stop midway through a print, with an empty cart, it always stops at the end of a print.  I think there is also a difference in the chip for the 1400 compared to the 1430 and if you have the wrong ones this causes more issues.
