Digital BW, The Print

Hello.
Does anybody know if there is a specific key combination on the R340
printer that can be used to reset the waste ink pad counter?
If not, can anybody confirm that the SSC Service Utility (latest
version 4.20) does support the R340 (it's not listed in the version
history, but apparently, some say, it does support it...).
Has anyone (using a Mac) successfully reset the counter for the R340?
Many thanks, Gordon.

Hi Gordon;

The R340, 300, 240, and 200 are essentially the same printer, so if 
any of those are listed, it will probably work. You'll have to use a 
pc to do the reset, but once that's done, it shouldn't make ant 
difference which paltform the printer is used on. 

I just reset my R1800 with it, worked fine...

I tried the SSC utility last night; it would not work on my R340.

FWIW, there is a 'new' autoreset chip coming into the US for the 
latest firmware version of the R340. Timeline is indefinite, but 
should be fairly soon, I think.  I'm also going to see what I can do 
to get more information on reset codes today.  Both of these are NIB 
machines 'under warranty' except 
for the non-Epson ink usage.


I have a CIS setup in two of these machines--and I am dead in the 
water on the color machine for now. I've held up using the B&W 
machine very much until the new chips are in sight, so to speak.

Meanwhile, the B&W printing I have done meets all my expectations so 
far--thanks, Paul and Clayton.
