What tricks have you used to get these to work? I have the Artisan 810 and it won't recognize this ink. I tried switching the chips but it didn't work

It's been awhile since I installed the cartridges from that purchase. The printer may have asked me to confirm that they were 'epson' cartridges (which I probably would have said yes) or there may have been a warning about nonepson-ness where I had to say yes I want to install them. Seems like the clips or tape preventing ink leakage needed a 2nd look. Rebooting he printer before and/or after installing the cartridges may also help. Otherwise it sounds like a faulty chip(s) in the ink cartridges.

Artisan 810 is the same model I have. All I had to do re-seat the cyan. I screwed up and removed the film over the ink hole which I think caused my problem. I did remove the protective tab. The film is pierced by the printer and I forgot. The cartridge wouldn't seat properly (no click). After pushing firmly it clicked and off it went! Hope this helps.

I didn't have to do anything. I just peeled the sticker off and installed the cartridges. I have the Artisan 710.

Ive had really good luck with these ... I've stocked up on them like you can not imagine. I am still on the first set. They do not recognize them as authentic cartridges but they still work! it just warns against them ... but for the savings, I'm not worried.

I found I couldn't mix and match them with Epson cartridges. I had to use all of one or the other, and when I used these, I put them all in at once and they worked.

I had the same problem, I took them out and then put them back in again. Once I did that a couple of times then a question mark appears on the front screen, but the printer will print it won't acknowledge the cartridge cause it is a refurbished one, but the printer will print. Try that and see if that works for you. Hope so :)

Sorry I cannot provide a more helpful response, but ... it's been too long since my purchase. I think I ordered my FIRST box of ink from Amazon, but thereafter I've bought the ink locally. I CAN say that these inks don't seem to last very long.

I did firmware update before installing. And the cartridges do not recognize. Which company did you purchase from? And what do the chips look like on yours that do work? Mine look like wavy pattern, while genuine Epson have 9 island pattern. Thanks for response!

It seems that XP 310 will reject at least some of the generics. I'm experimenting with the ink and the printer does not seem to recognize the new cartridge. We shall see how it pans out later... One thing for sure is that this does not seem to be plug-n-play. :(

Well I don't know about the 810 but at first they seemed to work on the 600. Then they totally ran out really quickly and messed up my print quality . It took me months to get the heads clean even using genuine epson ink. I'm sticking with the epson ink now. Don't buy the headache.

Thomas; I can not help much because I don't know about a chip resetter. I can tell you that some cartridges will be recognized by the printer (810) and some may not be. I can also tell you that soon when the ink level falls a bit they will become unrecognizable. Epson put a lot of time and effort into their precious ink system and their printer will hound you until the day you or it dies about using genuine Epson ink. You will get so many messages that you may give up and buy Epson inks at exorbitant prices just to shut it up.

Hello Kate. I just clicked on the link for the ink you bought, input your printer information and it stated that this will not work on your printer. Contact your seller to see what return options you have.

I have been using the Ink X Pro system for several months for this same printer. Several times I have had an error message, but when I reseat the cartridge then it has been accepted. You might try wiping off the contacts with a microfiber cloth and be sure nothing is on the contacts. If these are new cartridges and this is the first use and you cannot get them to work then contact Ink X Pro.

I have used them on my Artisan 835 which uses Epson 98 (T098? where ? varies with the color). I would assume that if your printer uses the Epson 98 cartridges, these would work.I hope this helps you.Mike

That is a good question. I have not continue to mess with them. I found the stem in the fountain pen is weak. Some broke off. I used a small narrow nail to poke the hole but it will not go into the pen. So I am not recommending them for purchase unless they include the proper ink with them. I will revisit them today because you asked. I will get back to when I figure this out. Take care Bill

Is anyone out there a Macbook Pro owner with this issue? I've bought the ink and refilled my cartridges but I can't figure out how to reset them. I would love your help if you know the answer... (I'm about to spend $29 to buy a gadget that resets the chips but who knows if that's another crazy scheme!)Thanks, Samantha B

I use it for an artisan 837 - I do have challenges with the "ribbon" that runs from the cartridge to the ink - it runs under the lid and sometimes the sensor thinks the lid is up and/or invalid cartridge - a little bit of an annoyance for saving the landfills

Does this often. It's just something you have to deal with. What's even worse is when it dies in the middle of an 8x10. Best thing to do is make sure they are in tight. I am happy with a few failures to save so much on ink. The real reason is the chip set in them. They are making it harder and harder to use none OEM inks.

They did not work in my MFCJ450DW. Received error message that says it cannot detect ink.

you might have to turn the chip. put the right side to the left. most of the refill cartridges i ordered did not work
