Another question that pops to mind is: was the ink actually from the OEM or
from a third party?
I ask that because:
(a) I have never -- so far -- experienced such a dramatic color shift in my
Epson 2200 after changing a cartridge;
(b) a third-party ink will almost certainly be off somewhat when compared to
those from the OEM. Not to mention that the third-party ink may mix for a
while with that from the OEM, creating an unprofilable "bastard mix" until
the lines are thoroughly flushed.
