Epson Printer Cartridges Inkjet

[gharknes]

I brought my C84 printer with me from UK because I had room in my suitcase, when I went to look for inkjet carts they only have for a C83 which is quite obviously the same printer but for the ASIA reg, I assume the reason for this is to stop the flood of Asian ink cart into the EU as they are so much cheaper.

Has anyone got any idea where I could get my hands on a compatable cartridge that I can buy in Thailand, is it perhaps possible to change the system on the C84 to C83 by changing cmos or inserting program chip, any help would be appriciated

Not sure but if you have the old C84 with a little ink remaining this utility might be able to lock your system and then you might be able to hot swap the other cart and get it to work.

u cant refill and reset the carts u currently have?

Get a chip resetter from Pantip.

Swap the chip from your working but empty cart to the new one, reset it, print.

Repeat as necessary (just don't lose the chip).
