Hi Dr. Alaa
First of all, contact your supplier..
Durning shipping your ciss could have been inverted, draining ink from the cartridges to the tanks.
Inserting empty ciss cartridges would induce air, to the ink tubes in the printer.
The ink in the printhead and tubes would allow you to print...
The market is flooded with CISS.
This is what I look for in a CISS and the company I buy from.
1. Design (barometric tank design)
2. Quality build (tanks, fittings, tubes, cartridges, reliable auto reset chips)
3. Most importantly the ink used, (I do not want to profile, just pour it in and...
Hi guys
Thank you for the nice words.
We switched many models from the Piano Book to the Deluxe tank for several reasons.
1. Wide base, less likely to tip over.
2. Better ink flow, ink tubes never raise above the tanks...
3. We hand fill these ciss with a Japanese formula very similar to...
Check your the ARC chip version numbers.
I have had several customers buy the newer Artisan printers. (725, 835)
The ARC version 6.0R chips sets work without issue.
The older 5 series may not. (this version was unstable)

I have several Epson Artisans, models 700 thru 835. All very good printers.
Print quality is superb.
However paper tray and paper holder is of light construction. Some people have complained about that.
I have a 700 running daily for over two years.....

The Epson Artisan 700-835 uses Dye base ink.
However others have come up with a pigment formula.
I prefer to stay with the OEM style dye.
The Artisan produces a great photo...

Hi there
If your CISS doesn't have a reset button, you have the multi chip version. (chip on each cartridge)
Wait till your printer calculates that the cartridge is ready to be replaced, at that time you see a warning on the printer's lcd.
Ignore operating system low ink messages.
Make a...
Hi there
You cannot force a reset of your ink levels.
Printer will calculate usage, giving you a error message when it is time to take action. (ignore OS warnings)
With the multi chip version 6.0 revised chip set, you power down to reset, only the cartridge that has been exhausted will be...
You have to setup a new Artisan with the oem cartridges.
Both the 700, 710 thru 835 use the 98 cartridge, yes your ciss should work.
Check you chips.
Your black cartridge chip will be numbered 981R V 6.0
This is a version 6.0 revised.
If it doesn't work contact your vendor for an upgraded...
Thank you for the post.
This is my old gray mare......
I still use my Epson 2200 as a back-up pigment printer.
Great for roll paper
The add-on cutter has worked great for all my panorama shots up to six foot wide. ( 13 inch by 6 foot wide, wow )
You are right about being slow, but it has...
Hi Blackout
Our ink is a "non" OEM formula.
Our ink labels are merely for reference, different font and graphic. This is so our customers can match ink to the right CISS or cartridges.
These are the things I look for in our third party ink solutions
1. Easy of use
2. Great results
3. Price...
Thank you ghwellsjr, good explanation.
That post is correct, we are are a graphic arts house first, we use continuous ink systems in our business and offer them to our customers.
We install and build custom ciss, check out the video on the r2880 on the website's FAQ section.
We prep and...
I have used R-JetTek's OCP's Printhead Recovery fluid.
Had a Epson 2200 that needed to be cleaned and flushed out.
Had not printed anything with this printer for over three years. (found in my storage)
This stuff worked great.
I am sure others have suggestions on flushing the ciss..

Hi there
I have a R2880 with a pigment ciss.
I make sure to print something every week.
Would not trust flushing a pigment ciss, I would alway worry, did I get it perfectly cleaned out.
Replace your ciss or go to refillable cartridges, sounds like you do not use this printer very much...
I have several Macs.
If I have a problem with the cups/tmp file, I just delete the printer then add the printer back again.
Do not reinstall software, just go to your system preferences, select printer & fax, highlight printer and click the - minus sign.
Then click the + plus sign to add...
Hi there
The page counter on the k550 in 8 months was about 12k increase.
Regarding your links to ebay, the HP Black is pigment not dye, so they (eBay sellers) cannot claim the same results.
I have not tested this companies extended cartridge.
However the one I did test like this did not...
