Re: [Digital BW] 7600 UT7 problems (a new wrinkle)

2004-09-27 by Hogarth Hughes

The printer isn't reading the chip on the cart well. It want's you to 
pull it out and reseat it. If it can't read the chip, it's not going to 
let you use the cart.

If you put a UC ink cart. in that slot, do you get the same problem? If 
not, then it's not a problem with the printer, it's a problem with the 
cart. Talk to MIS about it. If the problem persists with a UC cart, call 
Epson for warranty service.
