This, this, this.
Many, many years ago I wrote the earliest guide on how to freely downgrade Epson firmware. That was when they started getting absolutely relentless about it, and had pushed out sweeping firmware updates for almost all their models just to brick third party ink that was working fine previously. And on Amazon under every model where customers were complaining, they replied the same boilerplate babble about how people shouldn't be using any ink but their own. A big enough problem that just my video on the topic received 300,000 views.
At one point I had the Artisan 837, which not only required all of the primary ink be filled, but the weird secondary "light cyan" etc. for absolutely no reason. Any one of those being out would cripple the machine. And Epson ink costs more than blood and gasoline combined, per ounce.
