Paul, I had the same problem a while ago and have been trying to find my own notes regarding the button sequence you mention. It worked for me without problems. Regarding the ink pads, I decided to investigate and had no problem getting into the base of the printer. I found three (I think) layers of absorbent material totalling around an inch thick, to soak up waste ink. Only the bottom layer showed any signs of being used, the top two being virtually pristine. It may be worth finding out if Epson will supply new pads, in particular, the one under the head when parked, which probably needs changing more often. I hope someone on the list may be able to help me with a problem concerning print head rails on an Epson 2100. I think the lubricant on the guides has dried up and may be causing judder as the head travels from side to side. Does anyone know where I can buy the 'grease' from that manufacturers use, or alternatively, has anyone used other products like WD40 successfully. Image quality appears fine at the moment.
