Epson Stylus Photo R300 My printer has stop working because of the error message ' Error service required. Parts inside your printer are at the end of their service life' Does anybody have any idea what this relates to or is it the usual ploy to get you to pay for an inflated cost service by the manufacturers. Are there any button pressing sequences to over come this message?
Hi,
I apologize for a delayed response as i was not at my desk.
I am sorry to hear regarding the problem.Unfortunately, this is a common problem on this printer.There is only one reset procedure that might work. Press and hold the ' Stop ', 'Maintenance ' and ' Power ' buttons for about 10 seconds.Then turn the printer off, and back on.
Note - You still need to get the ink absorber changed.
The repair is not economical as Epson would charge anywhere between $100 - $300 for repair. You could look for the below procedure to DIY :
