[QUOTE="cebtoo, post: 220609, member: 16103"] I replaced the refillable cartridge with a cheap compatible cartridge and it cleared the error message. I put the refillable cartridge back in and the printer still doesn't detect it. I noticed the refillable cartridge is leaking excessively from the nozzle. Put the compatible cartridge back in and printed a full color test page successfully. It appears the refillable cartridge went south on me. Over five years is a good run in my book. $9.98 for a 5 cartridge set is OK in my book, so I will stop refilling when each cartridge goes empty. Just a note however... after printing the test page, I got a BK cartridge not recognized error message. I removed and reseated the black and the error message cleared with no problem. The printer seems OK with three auto reset chips and one compatible chip. I will return here if I find otherwise. By the way, this Brother printer is the best inkjet I ever owned. I expect it to reach planned obsolescence any day now, so I'm going to nurse it along as best I can. Decent Brother printers have dried up on the market right now, so I can't replace it. The models currently available (all brands) are crap. I used to be with a computer manufacturer in QA testing, Datapoint, and dealt with a a lot of different printers, including Datapoint manufactured printers. I still don't understand them. [/QUOTE]
