      Hello,



I've read on a forum (sorry can't remember which one) recently about someone, when using refillable carts, was getting some bad nozzle check patterns. Switched to OEM carts and "magic", nozzle check is perfect. Switches back to the NON OEM carts... and bad nozzle check again.



Supposition from this person was that, when the Epson print driver detects and warns us about "not using genuine Epson cartridges", it also "tweaks" the printer into printing badly (a bit) in order to give bad reputation about NON OEM inks and discourage people from using third party carts.



Could they be that evil?



Maybe it's just an urban legend. But I wonder if any one here has heard a similar story. I do not have the computing skills to dive into the driver code to confirm... ;-)



If it might be true, placing OEM chips on NON OEM carts might be a good idea after all. 



Thanks,



Denis
