I'm at the banging the head on the wall stage with my Epsom (
think it's a D88 or D90 or summat like - I'm not at home to confirm).
But even buying alledgedly genuine Epson (teddy bear) cartidges from Tesco/Boots/Staples, the printer software still keeps telling me that I'm using non-genuine Epson ink and tries to throw wobblies.
Then, it reports "ink low" when there is only 10% left. OK, fair do's for the warning/reminder, but not for every goddam print being done that day!
When it does report "out of ink", then what's the stuff sloshing around inside the cartridge then? Scotch Ink? (mist)
It's all a con / rip-off.
I've tried Tesco own-brand ink and never again.
Smears!
I haven't ever tried re-filling my own cartridges - anyone managed with success?
