Is my printer finished?

not all the time epson printers have a huge ink pad along base to catch excess ink and the have a counter built into them this will have a max number of times the unit goes back and forth calculated by how much ink is sprayed. i have fixed thousands of these and all u need to do is get hold of the service tool and reset your counters, i have never seen a pad with more than a quarter of it covered in ink
