An FK100 flight crew used the wrong SID chart for departure out of ewr, using the old ewr 6 departure procedure versus the newer arthur kill 2 departure procedure. They had 'obtained' their pre departure clearance via their ACARS.

Narrative:
Captain received ACARS clearance and programmed FMS. First officer does this more frequently. On return from exterior aircraft inspection by first officer, captain was having some difficulty establishing DME for ewr departure. We resolved difficulty and established where we could read ILS DME for departure. Captain then thoroughly briefed ewr 6 departure and then we were into ATC communication, taxiing, etc. While complying with ewr 6 departure, ATC asked if we had turned to intercept the solberg radial (100 degrees). We quickly made the turn, as he gave us a vector. Further scrutiny on our part revealed our clearance for the new arthur kill 2 departure, not our previously always standard ewr 6. I believe the absorption with setting DME allowed us to follow habit.

Title: AN FK100 FLC USED THE WRONG SID CHART FOR DEP OUT OF EWR, USING THE OLD EWR 6 DEP PROC VERSUS THE NEWER ARTHUR KILL 2 DEP PROC. THEY HAD 'OBTAINED' THEIR PDC VIA THEIR ACARS.
Narrative: CAPT RECEIVED ACARS CLRNC AND PROGRAMMED FMS. FO DOES THIS MORE FREQUENTLY. ON RETURN FROM EXTERIOR ACFT INSPECTION BY FO, CAPT WAS HAVING SOME DIFFICULTY ESTABLISHING DME FOR EWR DEP. WE RESOLVED DIFFICULTY AND ESTABLISHED WHERE WE COULD READ ILS DME FOR DEP. CAPT THEN THOROUGHLY BRIEFED EWR 6 DEP AND THEN WE WERE INTO ATC COM, TAXIING, ETC. WHILE COMPLYING WITH EWR 6 DEP, ATC ASKED IF WE HAD TURNED TO INTERCEPT THE SOLBERG RADIAL (100 DEGS). WE QUICKLY MADE THE TURN, AS HE GAVE US A VECTOR. FURTHER SCRUTINY ON OUR PART REVEALED OUR CLRNC FOR THE NEW ARTHUR KILL 2 DEP, NOT OUR PREVIOUSLY ALWAYS STANDARD EWR 6. I BELIEVE THE ABSORPTION WITH SETTING DME ALLOWED US TO FOLLOW HABIT.
