chip resetter for epson r230

[grant walker]

i have purchased an epson r230 with a continuous ink system and a resetter
chip.

i have the instructions for the continuous ink system but there were no
instructions on how to use the resetter.

i would be pleased if someone would post instructions on using the resetter
chips.

with thanks,
grant.

The one I used to have was really simple.

You just place the chip on the pins of the resetter, and press the red
button.

The light blinked twice, and that was it.

All done.

hi Stryker,
the printer arrived with a continuous ink kit and also two little plastic
blocks each with 3 electric connections that match the ink carts.

there are instructions for the ink system but none for how to install the
resetter. i can get the resetters into the cartridge carrige but i dont know
if i have to push buttons or wait for red lights to appear or disapear or
turn the printer off or what.

Some of them reset by themselves automatically after a certain number of
usages, and some reset each time you turn on the printer, but always
leave them a half full setting. There may be other schemes as well.

These instructions are typically for people using OEM or 3rd party
cartridges which do not have a resetter chip, but have a standard chip.
Most resetter chips keep themselves set so they do not ever read empty.

Thats what you get when you get crap.  Return them to the seller.  You should only buy stuff that has documentation.

Grant,

Just out of sheer curiosity, have you tried to ask the retail outlet
source
you got the printer, continuous ink setter, and chip resetter from,
how to
use the chip resetter? (Why not???)

I'd certainly try the supplier first. Maybe a packer was taking
a break or simply not looking at the work.

As for anyone who thinks posting here is dumb somehow, I certainly
cannot agree with that. The whole purpose of this newsgroup is to
be useful; perhaps who cannot respond politely to a question does
better for everyone else, just not to post.

I apologize for not being available to answer questions over the last
week or so. I am slowly going through the assorted postings and emails
in order to attempt to answer whatever I can.

I am not quite clear about this. Usually, the chips (either reset type
of not) are attached to the corresponding cartridges, in a specially
designed recess in the cartridge(s).

I strongly suggest you contact the manufacturer or retailer of the CIS
and ask them for an instruction guide to make sure the correct procedure
is followed.
