Before starting the installation, print a good nozzle check print using the existing inks installed on your printer.

Write the date on the print and keep it. No warranty claim regarding the refillable cartridge system will be

accepted unless it is supported by a good nozzle check print produced before the system was installed. The

utility for producing a nozzle check print can be found under the ‘Maintenance’ or ‘Utilities’ tab of the Epson

print driver software supplied with your printer. A good nozzle check will look like the image below:-

STEP 1 – INSTALLING CHIPS FROM ORIGINAL CARTRIDGES

As mentioned above, the Ink2image refillable cartridges for the Epson Pro 3880 or 3880 require that each

cartridge is fitted with a chip from an original cartridge. The original chips are coded differently for each color

and it is very important that correct color chip is fitted to the correct color In2image cartridge. We strongly

recommend that you work through this process color by color, removing the chip from the original cartridge

and installing it on the corresponding Ink2image cartridge one at a time, so that no mix up can occur. The

Ink2image bridge chip that comes with each refillable cartridge is also coded differently per color, so it is

important that you install the correct color bridge chip on the correct color cartridge. If you do mix up the

Ink2image bridge chips, then the cartridge color is written on each chip i.e. PK for Photo Black, Y for Yellow

etc.

You can use original chips from empty cartridges without issue. Unlike other types of bulk feed device for the

Epson Pro 3800 or 3880, the Ink2image system works fine with fully depleted cartridge chips.

IMPORTANT NOTE If you are going to use chips from original cartridges that are currently installed in your

printer i.e. an original cartridge has just run empty on the machine and you are going to remove the chip from

it and install it on an Ink2image cartridge, always close the cartridge bay lid after removing the cartridge and

before installing the Ink2image cartridge. This will not harm your printer and you can open the cartridge bay

lid again when you are ready to install the Ink2image cartridge. This process of closing the cartridge bay door

each time after removing a cartridge or cartridges is important in making the Ink2image bridge chips read the

ink levels correctly.
