Digital BW, The Print

My CFS system from MIS Associates came today and I set it up. I'm
impressed with the package. Everything you need except for the screwdriver
and a pair of scissors.

I like the prints. I'm kind of wondering if I shouldn't have gone with
Photo Black and Epson Premium Semigloss instead of Eboni Black ... but
live and learn. I like the prints as they are very much.

But I ran into a glitch ... the chip on my black cartridge is defekt and
signals empty no matter what I do. I pried off a chip from the cartridges
that came with the C86 and put it on instead and that worked ... but
unfortunately I let my daughter print out A4's to her hearts content to
empty out those color cartridges that I wouldn't be using. So all the
available chips I have are almost "empty".

I've heard there was a "Swedish trick" to reset the chips. Does that not
apply to the newer printers? Or can someone point me in the right
direction?

Can I use any Epson chip (Like from a gloss optimizer cartridge for the
R800?)

I'm antsy to print out and with all of the full bottles of ink sitting
beside the printer it feels a little frustrating not to be able to.

Best,
