January 4, 2018
The chip manufacturer has launched replacement chips for use in Epson 702XL/378XL series and HP CF500 series.
Epson launched the 702/802 series ink cartridges and corresponding business inkjet printers WF-3720/WF-4720 in North America in April 2017. The 802 series cartridges have a bigger volume than the previous generation.
In August 2017, Epson launched 378/202 series ink cartridges and corresponding printers XP-8500/XP-6000 in Europe. The cartridge structure is the same as KUI series released in Japan and they have six colours and five colours. The printers in this series have a smaller size.
Apex’s first announcement is for “first-to-market” ASIC designed replacement for use in Epson 378XL/202XL/702XL/802XL cartridges. The chips are for use in Epson Expression Photo XP-8500, Epson Expression Photo XP-8505, Epson Expression Premium XP-6000, Epson Expression Premium XP-6005, Epson WorkForce Pro WF-372, Epson WorkForce WF-4720/WF-4730 and Epson WorkForce WF-4734/WF-4740.
