Epson large format cart refilling (was Effect for Europe of US ruling on Epson cartridges?)

2007-11-03 by Paul Roark

Does puncturing the backflow valve affect performance?  

 

My general impression was that the pressurized carts were an improvement in
some way over the others.  So, if we could keep all the advantages of the
carts and simply refill them, that might be better than these funnel fill
carts.

 

I'm assuming MIS must have some 3800 chips if they are looking for beta
testers.  They may be like the 260 chips - auto reset.  There are worse
things.  I just re-fill when they reset.

I have no 3800 but isn't the chip resetting not the first 
hurdle to take ? Didn't follow the messages on that subject 
but I believe the resetters that could reset the 9600 + 
10000 and the later versions that reset the 9800 model do 
not reset the 3800 chips. Hardware wise it is probably a 
back flow valve that has to be punctured by a key hole 
operation like needed for the 10000 and 9800 carts. John 
Dean must have the instructions for that.
