Well…I am still a little amused when I replaced the ink tanks in my Epson printer with generic ones and got essentially that message when I hit the print button…that using non Epson inks will probably ruin your printer, anything you’re printing, and start WWIII. But, I decided to chance it since I got all 4 tanks for less than one Epson tank…and that is just nuts…I know that the printers are just loss leaders to get you to buy the much more profitable ink, but there is no way they have more than a buck fifty in each tank…and they charge almost 25 bucks for each one…and that is only 10 bucks less than I paid for the printer…the weird thing is they have a little button in the printer software that says to “continue printing” even after the dire warning comes up. I will say this about this Epson…when I fired it up for the first time after not using it for a few months and it barely printed since the nozzles were dried out and clogged, all I had to do was run the head cleaning program twice and it prints like new…something that the the three Canon printers I’ve had wouldn’t do…once they were clogged, that was it…there was no bringing them back and I just had to throw them away…I was kind of hoping for an explosion and ink flying everywhere…that would have helped alleviate the boredom…<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
