A month or two ago I bought a refill for the cartridges on an Epson 777i.
It came with a floppy disk of software to install in WIndows to reset the
chip so the printer would accept the refilled cartridge.
I returned the entir package because
(1) Rebooting to WIndows every time the printer runs out of ink
is not acceptable
(2) Without a floppy drive on my computer, installation was
a dubious prospect.
