This video is missing the most important information: you can empty the tank of ink ejected and then reset the internal register which raises the alarm with a special software. In this way, you can avoid the need for servicing.
Using this technique I use an Epson printer continuously since 2006.
I have downloaded the software to reset the internal register of the printer from the Epson website itself.
I emptied the tank without dismantling the entire printer.
I used a large syringe to extract the ink, with a little alcohol as a solvent if necessary.
Let me be clear that this operation will void the warranty if it is performed during the coverage period.
At this point I would like to do some personal consideration:
- I find it unacceptable to throw a fully functional device in the trash. Do this would help to further transform our planet into a big dump! I print about a hundred sheets in a year and my printer is almost new but the rules of planned obsolescence try to force me to change it continuously (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Planned_obsolescence http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Planned_obsolescence)
- Why is it so difficult to build printers with a removable exhaust ink tank? Buyers should demand it to manufacturers of printers.
