[QUOTE="dchyde, post: 215641, member: 13870"] Hi and welcome to the club of frustrated printer customers. I too, have done lots of research into this matter and as much as you try, you can not go backwards with printer firmware. Well actually you can but the process is more difficult than brain surgery. I gave up after removing the skull, missing several meals and crossing my legs busting for a bathroom stop. A colleague of mine successfully went through the process but in monetary terms could have purchased two more printers. I have a two year old Epson XP-900 and will not use compatible or 3rd party cartridges because of my previous experience with two Canon printers and non genuine cartridges. Both only two to three years old and needing new print heads. New head, $130 NZ, new same printer $120 NZ. Now both in the scrap yard. A set of five new genuine Epson cartridges - $104 NZ, new same printer $225 with an $80 cash back. In NZ we have a Cosumers Guaratees Act whereby all goods sold must be of good quality and fit for the purpose or replaced if they fail. Well all compatible or 3rd party cartridges fail in all printers. I had them on about it but the jury is still out on this one this one and the only option now is to involve the Ombudsman. If I was younger and had more time I would try this option as there must be thousands of people out there in the same position. Are you not able to buy sets of cartridges at a cheaper price where you reside? 50 pound for one genuine cartridge sounds a bit much. I hope your drawing board produces a brighter future. David.
