Not sure if this is the right group for this, but all the printer groups seem dead. so I will risk being flamed.
I bought the EpsonPhoto R265 about a year ago, complete with a continuous ink system and after some fiddle got it working. It worked OK except for needing a lot of clean cycles for almost every use. I recently got a leak in the Yellow cartridge and took it out to replace the rubber sealing grommet. On putting it back the status monitor showed the yellow empty and all the attempts to reset according to the book failed. Took all cartridges out and replaced on a replace cycle, now I got all cartridges showing Xs and a message that the cartridges were incompatible. Bought some standard clone replacement cartridges of good make and replaced the CISS cartridges, but still status monitor puts red Xs on all cartridges and message tells me cartridges are incompatible. Any ideas???
I've read up on some of the forums and find that the reset software for my R265 isn't commonly available and that maybe I have too much ink on the ink cleaning pad which needs replacing. Anything like that makes the printer repair uneconomical by third party. Please help!!!
PS What is a good Photo printer to buy nowadays that allows Ink systems/refilling.
