Re: [Digital BW] 2200 - MIS cart problem

2005-03-12 by Carl Schofield

Bruce,

I've been using three sets of the clear carts with different inksets 
for the past few months.  I haven't contacted MIS about this problem 
with the Epson carts yet.  Next time I make a cartridge change I'll 
check more carefully to see exactly why the Epson carts will no longer 
fit.  I assumed it was because the pins were bent, but I'm not really 
sure so I'll inspect and see if that is really the source of the 
problem.
