Digital BW, The Print

Chances are the chip is not being read correctly in the Cyan position  
and can actually cause another position to give false too. Try  
reinserting it a few times and see what happens, wiggle it around.

I have just spent the last week with the same issues on a 9800.  
Cardboard wedges, tape on the bottom of carts, stand on one foot with  
finger in ear....whateverittakes.
Damn that Epson!
