I have an Epson R280 printer, running on OS X 10.5.8.

I have seen software for PC (shocker!), but not for Mac.

The software is called "SSC Service Utility."

Is anyone familiar with a reset software for Macintosh?

Basically, the software resets the printer when it displays the following dialog:

"We need some more money from you. We have installed software on your printer to make it play dead. We hope this entices you to buy a NEW printer. The money we overcharge you for ink is not enough to line our pockets."

This dialog, of course, is slightly paraphrased.

Any ideas, Mac gurus?

Thanks!

I've never seen such a warning. (I have an Epson 740.)
Why is it doing that? Attack the source of the problem, not the symptom.
