Epson T54V700 UltraChrome HD Light Black Ink Cartridge - 150mL for SureColor P Series Printers | High-Quality Photo & Graphic Printing | Ideal for Professional Photography & Fine Art Reproduction

Notes:

Due to the continuing chip shortage, Epson UltraChrome HD and HDX ink cartridges of all sizes transitioned to a different design with new part numbers on June 1, 2023.

Epson is committed to the quality and performance of its printing solutions and there is no chemical or formula difference between the old and new inks. The current ink cartridges have a chip that notifies the printer to send a low ink warning or to replace cartridges. The new ink cartridges will operate without that chip. Ink levels will instead be determined by an internal droplet count done by the printer. This measurement method may lead to an earlier indication of low ink levels than the previous cartridges.

To use these new cartridges, the Epson SureColor P6000, P7000, P8000, and P9000 printers require new firmware BEFORE installing the new cartridges in the printer or running out of ink in the current cartridges. For that reason, it is critical that all customers update their printer to the latest firmware as soon as possible.

If a customer fails to perform the firmware update, the printer will not accept the cartridge once an ink cartridge with the new chip technology is inserted into the printer. This will include any new UltraChrome ink cartridge purchased after June 1, 2023.

Once the updated firmware is installed, the SureColor P6000/P7000/P8000/P9000 printer can accommodate both the older ink cartridge design and the new ink cartridge design.
