hello,

When installing the CIS for the R260, did every cartridge click into place? This is very important to insure that the printer efficiently reads the chips. Once its installed, press the button on the Epson printer that allows the cartridges to be removed. Do not remove the cartridges, just have them in position to be removed.

Once the cartridges are in place, press the button located on top of the cartridges and hold it for 7 seconds. Release the button, then press the button on the Epson printer that allows the cartridges to be read again by the printer. Once they have been read, unplug the power of the printer, wait 2 min and restart the printer by plugging in the power cord and pressing the power button. At this time the cartridges should be read.
