Thanks Matt,

Would I need a Y OEM cart? (Just my luck, I have empty carts in every
color except Y!)  I switched the LLK chip and now it is ok (using an
OEM LLK chip).  Can a M chip be used on the Y spongeless cart?

Steve, you use a lupe to see that it is aligned?  How are you seeing
the contacts within the printer?  The contacts on the cart are
certainly large enough to not require magnification to see them (this
isn't nanotech).  I probably don't understand what you are using the
lupe for.  Because the Y chip isn't even resetting, I don't think it
is an alignment issue.

I've tried realigning the Y cart, it still errors.

Jeff,  I think it is great you can afford the OEM inks and I'd agree
they are great.  However, I'm  extremely happy with the quality of
both Cone and MIS inks, and minor inconveniences such as these, though
annoying, would never make me consider switching back to OEM.  I no
longer worry about ink costs, I print as much as I want, as big as I
want.  The only sacrifice in my mind is a small amount of convenience
IMHO.  But as you said, mileage varies.

Thanks again everyone

Guhan
