  Thanks John, You saved me alot of time and frustration dealing with that idiot I was talking with at Ebson, he didn\'t know sh$t about my printer, he began by telling me that my printer was like a human body and I was like WTF???, well anyway I eventually told him he was stupid and hung up on him, I called the place where I purchased my printer from and he gave me your website, everything is working fine now and you saved me from any down time I would have had taking to the service center!... What a fantastic job guys!!! absolutely astounded that it works and how easy it was. thank you again!

  It worked fine. It was just that we didn't know where to start with opening the program. I couldn't get it to install so there was an icon that took us into the whole program. I found out that if I clicked on the one icon it opened the one we needed. The service manual will be of great help for later when the ink absorption pad needs changing. Thanks for your prompt attention. Regards, Ruth

  Hi. I tried to reset printer Epson EP-901f (japanese model). I tryed everything possible I could - SCC utility, soft reset,.... so far no luck. Then i bought this and it reset my printer just in second. Thanks for good job. My printer is back to life again. I paid for this printer about $550US. Now I can use it again just for spending extra almost 10 dollars. It\'s worth it. Thanks for your great job. Well done!

  John. Your a star and just saved my bacon. Needed presentations printing and this reset was just what I needed for me to complete the job on time. I wish I could have found you more quickly but as they say better late than never. Cheers

  Ja sam prezadovoljan, kupoprodaja je uspesno zavrsena a stampac Epson Stylus Photo P50 je odmah po resetovanju proradio.Ovo prvi put radim ali svakom preporucujem saradnju sa ovom firmom, zaista su korektni.
