Yes.

My old printer would try to pull the out of ink but not really scam on me too. I discovered that if I removed the cartridges then put them back in, the printer would go ahead and use them after all. Don't know if this trick works on all printers, but it wouldn't hurt to try.

not with the epson, the cartridges remember that they are supposed to pretend they are out of ink. The chip resetter erases the data on the chip.
