Digital BW, The Print

I forgot. Epson support will ask you if you are using genuine Epson
inks. Learn to set aside all you inherent honesty and say "yes, I am
using genuine Epson ink". Epson service will accept no other answer.
Until you tell this white lie, they will go no further. I was finally
"coached" into realizing I had to say yes by the customer rep in Long
Beach who agreed to a warranty replacement.
