  Hello, my printer PX700W is back in business after downloading the reset key for about 10 dollars. Greetings from Borge in Norway :-)
  Margaret Scheperle 2013-01-04 01:13:05  
  Sure wish your live support was online. I could understand it being down on New Year's Eve, but not today. I sent an email to this effect also, but no reply. The reset key worked, thanks. For just half a day, however. Not what I expected for $9.99. Please advise.

  realy worked. Thank you!

  Perfetto! Qualche difficoltà nel registrare la chiave ma dopo mezz'ora dall'acquisto è stata "digerita" dal software! 9.99$ ben spesi!!!

  I got the flashing lights and Service required message on my Epson R2400, as many others have before!
I spent hours online and eventually managed to download Epsons own Adjustment Program. It showed me the waste ink settings but would not let me reset the counter, although I had disconnected the feed tubes and re-routed them to an external bottle.
Today I found 2Manuals.com and downloaded their WIC reset program. I thought It probably won\'t work but one key is only $9.99 so what the heck!
Well that was the best $9.99 I have ever spent - as soon as I entered the key and hit RESET the printer whirred into action, ink pumped into my waste bottle and I am back in action!

This has saved me a lot of money and the hassle of sending the printer to an Epson service centre. Truly a 5***** product! Chris Porteous, Prestatyn, U.K.
