The ink order is the same on all Epson hextone carts, I assume.

If the cart was new, there is no need to re-set the chip.

Epson is conservative.  If the right amount of ink was put in the carts, the
monitor will say you are out before that actually happens.  (I think there
is a lawsuit in Europe alleging Epson is cheating customers by this
practice.  Epson's response is that running the printer head when it's dry
damages the head.  So, it's better to leave some ink in the cart.)

Happy printing.
