I jut started up an old HP 7550 plus plotter this afternon, works splendid!
The pen's in the carousel hadnt been touched for over 2 years, works splendid!

Epson printers works for 5 months then the "inbuilt ink patron MCU declares:
time-to-buy-a-new-Epson-printer-you-silly-and-dumbfooled-user!!
(i have newer own a epson and newer will either, but tried to
repair several, newer sucseeded to get them work properly again).
