Hi Daniel, > Epson got the US to outlaw third-party cartridges and that made my > printer bit the dust. I can get 3rd party cartridges for my three Epson printers. They are a few years old at best (1280 being the newest). I'm not sure it's the cartridge that could be banned, but perhaps the electronics on the cartridge that they use to count the number of droplets used. I do remember some huffing and puffing about that a number of years ago...but I hadn't heard it was determined by the courts that this could stand.
