    Received the redsetter, a question

    Hello, last week I ordered the redsetter for the 9500 mk II cartridges. However the seller sent me the PGI-72 v2 redsetter. There's a chance that this resetter is compatible with PGI-9 cartridges of my 9500 mk II too or is a seller error and he have to ship me the correct one?
