I'm installing a CIS on the Epson RX700 and am getting two bad issues.
First - the printer claims the yellow (and sometimes all) cartridges is defective / missing. I found that there is a continuous stream of ink (black / green) that has coated the chip contacts on the cartridge. I cleaned that off multiple times. The printer may recover and print a few pages before reverting.
Second - besides the above leak the printer has dumped several ml of ink onto the printer table. Most of this is on the right side. A couple ml have leaked on the left side.
This is a brand new CIS. I tried another CIS that had been sitting for a year with similar results but the printer never printed. I ordered a new CIS that took a week to arrive.
I initially removed the plugs for the tanks and recycled the printer power about three times. The initial priming action caused the tanks to overflow. After cleaning the mess up I re-plugged the thanks and got some initial success printing. At that point the printer started fussing about the yellow cartridge and the leaks began in earnest.
Thanks all.
