[Digital BW] Re: Problem with Epson 4000

2006-02-04 by jamesdsteele2001

Somewhere on this list you will find instructions for for resetting
the Epson 4000 Maintenance Tank with the control panel.  I believe you
turn off the  printer and then while holding down the left, up, and
down arrows simultaneously, turn the printer back on.  You will be
presented with a different menu in the control panel.  With a little
searching you will find a reset for the MT.
