    Does the error message stop the printer from working?

    Hope the new cartridges solve it

    Refill by post is worth a look if your cartridges are suitable. It has a standard £7 for the black cartridge and £9 for the colour cartridge.

    http://www.refreshcartridges.co.uk/refill-by-post.html

    " If you send us a standard capacity cartridge then by taking it apart, removing any restricting material and replacing the sponges we can often turn your cartridge in to a high capacity equivalent. "

    I get cartridges for an Epson from them and they have always been prompt and contactable for the rare event of something needing to be exchanged.

    Worth asking if you can send XL cartridges for refilling.

    Thanks for the update.
