Computer/Printer Question.

[kitesurf_phil]

Could any of you learned computer literate types help me. My old printer was a Hewlett Packard. My new one is an Epson Stylus Photo RX520. Do I have to remove any tape or anything from the ink cartridges before I plug them in? It doesn't mention it in the destructions. I just wonder where the plastic film goes to when they are plugged in.

Ta very much.

there r normally 2 options ...1 there is a tab to pull the plastic off.....
2 the plastic jus breaks when u insert the ink

[kitesurf_phil]

Cheers. There is no tab. Just a thin plastic covering. I'll shove them in and see waht happens.

Phil I just bought an epson printer the R300 thingy that prints discs and if the ink carts are the same...ie 6 individual ones then yes you have to peel off the little plastic tabs before clicking them into place...HTH

I just put them in. I know I bite my nails, but there are no tabs to get hold of and sharp needle thingies that look as if they puncture the platic membrane. We'll see what happens. I am about to make a test print. Whoops!

Wahay! It works. It's the first peripheral that I have connected to this computer that hasn't made me

I am very , so far. Now all I have to do is read up on how to print photos, use the fax, use the scanner/copier bit.

Thanks for your help guys.

Don't know what you mean Vince...

It's still doin' it.
Or is it my monitor?

[kitesurf_phil]

Nothing to do with me. It looks perfectly normal to me. It must be yours eyes playing up. Something like that, anyway. I hope it gets better soon.
