What do the ink pads look like?
If you do choose to disassemble your product, the ink pads may appear completely saturated with ink or may still have some white areas that have not been completely saturated with ink, depending on usage patterns. A very high-volume user will saturate the pads more quickly because ink evaporation will not be as effective. For a low-volume user, longer evaporation periods may result in portions of the pads appearing unused. The ink pad life counters are designed to prevent risk in all cases. At what point should a user expect to get this message? Epson products are designed to last a significant amount of time. However, the length of time a printer can be used before this message occurs will vary depending on the model, and on the amount and type of pages printed. Is anything being done to change this situation? Epson continually strives to increase the durability and longevity of our products. This is done through ongoing improvements in design to reduce the amount of ink being deposit
