Re: [Digital BW] CIS and CFS carts

2002-11-24 by Jerry Olson

Epson's chips are glued on and you have to pry them off. THird party
chips are in a little plastic holder that just slide in. Much easier.  I
don't think you could interchange them, unless you are very handy at
that sort of thing.

The cartridges are slightly different in the way that chips are installed.
