[Digital BW] Re: Was: R2400, NOW: waste pad replacement and warning.

2010-01-20 by wlh_1

FYI Ink Republic sells an ink pad replacement kit for several printers which involves some tubing and a bottle and instructions to install it. Basically it re-routes the waste ink to an external bottle which can be emptied from time to time. The mod is simple and I install it as a matter of course in new printers.

Then all that has to be done when the printer says that the ink pads need to be replaced is to re-set the waste ink counter either by the actual maintenance program for the printer or various 3rd party apps. or even on the Epson website.

Cheers
