  This worked a treat, many thanks. Epson, just like most other printer manufacturers just want to rip us all off. Thanks to you guys it can be avoided in part. All the best

  This fixed my Epson R2400 printer! Whew! Thank you!

  The trial key is key (pun intended). It unblocked my EcoTank right away through Wi-Fi. Soon I'll have to buy this key. This software DISABLING of the printer should be illegal. It's programmed to actually brick the device. Unbelievable. Talk about planned obsolescence!
