I c it's RW Data Cartridge. Does that mean its ReWriteble or just Read Write once only? ? Thxs! !

It is a magnetic tape and uses a specific drive mounted in your computer. It is re-writable as much as you need until the tape wears out. I've never worn one out and probably have some tapes which have been 40 times.

I have been using these tapes for data backup for about 10 years. They are rewriteable tapes, though you can lock them to keep them from being over-written if you want to preserver their data.

The printer printed one time with the Remanufactured Ink Cartridge and then that was it.It would not print a thing after that one time !

Ink pig is a mild term. I printed about 12 pages of text and labeled 10 or so discs. The ink cartridges that came with the machine are practically empty. What's the deal? I have had an Epson R200 now for a couple of years and have only had to replace the cartridges once. I would hate to pay for high capacity cartridges and only get double output. I guess I need to take O'Shaughnessey's advice and gripe out Epson!

Contact the company. They replaced the one my machine did not like, no charge. The other cartridge I had ordered worked perfectly. No complaints at all. Great price, great service.

I'm sorry Robert I have long since used that cartridge and to tell you the truth it worked fine on my printer and that's the one it called for.I have since switched to another company for my cartridges.Sorry I couldn't be of help.

No, you can just replace one cartridge and keep on going, good question, its not like a ink jet printer it's different, So you will like this printer and it works well as a Fax, Copier and an all in one

If the price is about $85 it is a new cartridge. I would NOT purchase re-manufactured cartridges...they are not worth the money.

We're having a similar problem. It keeps telling us it is "Write-Protected." Tried reformatting several times under different OS's and same problem.

It can save pictures. What you have to be careful of is: RW stands for Re Write. You can easily copy over top of any pictures you have on the disk. I sometimes use it to send pictures to my son. You can use these disks over and over.

No idea but the if the cartridge has a chip, and you cannot reset it, then it's not going to work. My case is even with the refillable Lexmark cartridges, it still refused to work after the refill. Nothing wrong just the printer detected the refill and 'refused' to use it.

Yes, that is what reading means. Plug it into a computer and it works just like a built-in disk drive would. That isn't a stupid question. I have seen a lot of drives on Amazon that are only writeable, and descriptions can be unclear.

No, this a burn once type. You would need it to say RW to erase and reburn. This is not that type.

Thats the exact ink cartridge my HP printer takes, and it worked fine! Please note (this was very frustrating to discover) that ink cartridges have a computer chip in them and are pre-programmed for how much ink was originally in it. It won't read a refill of ink. You can override the warnings that printer ink is low for only so long-- i was only able to refill my cartridge once before my computer refused to use the cartridge. I bought a new cartridge and plan to only refill each cartridge once. Still saves a ton of money, though!!

If this was the first time this has happened to you then you might want to ask for a replacement as that particular cartridge might be defective. I have never had a problem with a remanufactured cartridge.

Not sure what you mean by "already formatted" but these are blank media CDs. There is nothing on them so technically when you put data or whatever on them you will format them at that point depending upon your burning software. These are not RW meaning that once you burn something to them you cannot burn anything else--they're one time use.

As far as I know you can. There are kits you can buy and or have a vendor that specializes in doing that.They test the cartridge then load it then test it again. I only bought some refilled units back several years agobut I have not for quite awhile. Wish you the best.

Works fine for me as well. One cartridge was not recognized but then it worked fine. For the cost it works just fine.
