Default Epson refills - 03-30-2007 , 06:14 PM






Do you happen to know if it is possible to refill and reset the chip on
cartridges in the Epson DX5000 printer.
Cartridges are the T0711 / 12 / 13 / 14 respectively.
Cheers,
Jim.

Epson cartridges are at least partially refillable, depending upon the
model number and how tricky you need to become.

there are diagrams showing where holes need to be added, etc.

I cannot see why you would want to risk the permanent printhead on your
printer to a printhead clog.

I'm using JETTEC and so far so good. They are supposed to contain 30%
more ink than Epson's.

P.S. Unfortunately, the dreary M............ is bound to have a
comment again that we all must only use Mfr's ink or ........ He's a
complete nuisance on this group.

For what it's worth, I've never used Epson ink (other than the
cartridges that came with the printer) since I bought it 18 months OK.

Unfortunately, due to the legal situation, the importer no longer
imports that particular make of cartridge -- but just before they
stopped, I stocked up on cartridges and so I should be OK for another
year or so.

(Price per cartridge? About £1)

I've had no problems with the printer (Epson R300) in the 18 months I've
had it, and the prints and CDs/DVDs look just as good as those made with
the original inks.

regards.

Jim,

If it's of help and I see you are in the UK, www.proprint.co.uk sell the
re-setter you are looking for.


I've just looked up the site you said and although they sell a universal
chip resetter for Epson they say it will not do for the DX5000.
Thanks anyway.
I tried numerous sites now and no one has yet come up with a resetter for
this model. They all say they will produce one in the future.
Cheers,
jim
