Re: Epson 1430 with MIS cartridge - easy way to reset empty status?

2013-02-27 by jcphoto52

Funny that following a thread (Can I top of...) and seeing that I'm not alone, comfort me in a way!
I'm still trying to find a simple way to a decent monitoring of the inks but that CIS system (whatever the brand) seems a very good idea.
I looked at some tutorial videos of how to install a CIS system; seems pretty simple but at the same time a bit dangerous.
Still thinking...

I (along with Paul) ignore Epson's graphical depiction of ink levels.  The "above-ground" CIS ink reservoirs clearly reveal when I must add more ink to them.  I've recently been toying with the idea of switching to refillable cartridges (why, in heavens, I don't know) but I think now I'll give up the idea.
