epson r200 cartridge error

[Guest]

I have an Epson r200 which worked fine up until recently.
Now it reads that all ink cartridges are empty, even after replacing
every ink cartridge with new.
Anyone else having the same problem?
Or does anyone have any ideas or solutions?

thanks in advance

Martin

Does it print?
if yes : re-install the monitoring prog.
if no : you did follow the replacement procedure, didn't you?

I don't have a solution, but you are not the first to note this. I
suspect it might be a programming error or defect in the firmware.

It may also be a nice "play" on Epson's part to confound the printer is
3rd party or refill inks are used with a chip resetter... Are these OEm
(Epson cartridges, or 3rd party or refill?

I would contact Epson since your printer should still be under warranty.
