This is the normal product life cycle for highly mechanical devices like printers. At some point, the product will reach a condition where either satisfactory print quality cannot be maintained or components have reached the end of their usable life. Like so many other products, all Epson consumer ink jet products have a finite life span due to component wear during normal use. Please explain the message I am getting in my printer driver that says parts inside my printer are reaching their end of service life.
