Why a chip decoder?

P800 printers sold in North America will only accept the use of non-original products one time. When you first install a set of refillable cartridges, the printer will accept them, but after 80ml of ink are consumed by a single color, that cartridge will stop being accepted. At that time, you can go back to using original EPSON ink on that color, or you can install this chip decoder to gain an additional 30 resets of the cartridges. The decoder works by connecting to the printer's motherboard directly, bypassing the cartridge chips altogether.

How does the decoder work?

When the decoder is first installed, all ink levels will read 100%. The ink levels will decrease normally as you print. When an ink level reaches 0%, the cartridge will be marked as unrecognized. At that point, you can press the button on the decoder to reset all 9 ink levels. The decoder has 30 sets of serial numbers programmed into it, allowing you an additional 30 resets of your refillable cartridges.

How do I install the decoder?

The installation does not require any special tools or hardware. However, disassembly is required, so you must exercise the utmost care during the process.

If ever you need to remove the decoder, it is possible to uninstall the decoder and restore the original connection between the printer's motherboard and the cartridge chip reader.
