Warning, this is a spoof video. The ink level indicator is controlled by the green computer chip. Doing anything else on the cartridge itself (as shown in the video), will not change the ink level.

Tip 92 - How to get beautiful Black and White prints from your inkjet printer

By giving the command to your printer to only use the black ink to print, you will get rid of any colour cast in your black and white photos, which is by far the most common problem in black and white prints. However, side effects are peppered highlights (dots spacing out in light areas). But hey, it doesn't cost us an arm.

Tip 91 - About Epson new cartridges T073/73N etc

Since August 2008, Epson released a new range of printers and cartridges (like T073/73N cartridges) which will only work with each other.

For example,
CX9300F made before August 2008 can take T0731, 732, 733 and 734 cartridges, and T073/73N cartridges.
CX9300F made after August 2008 can only take T073/73N cartridges.

If you are unsure when your printer is manufactured, just check your user manual and see what cartridges do it need.

Tip No 90 - Pause printing

If you often print large photos, you may wish to purchase a printer which allows you to pause the printing and change the cartridges halfway when they are nearly empty. Ask the salesperson on which printer they sell have this feature.
