I didn't at first but did after trying the Epson included carts. Now
when I do a nozzle check, I get a good pattern from the magenta slot EZN
cart but nothing from the others. Since the Epson carts are working
perfectly, it seems I may have done something to the EZN carts by
running them with the foil on. Is there a way to fix them?
