Epson printer tank levels

Basically an answer to a reviewer who wanted to know why his Epson 2550 printer doesn't automatically reset the ink levels. If you use RTFM, you know there is no ink level sensor. You need to go into the ink level maintenance menu and select which tanks you refilled. The printer simply counts how many pages it has printed and estimates the ink level based on the number of pages since the last reset. It's just some kind of timer. I can't believe anyone got their ink back because of this issue. As for the inks, they work well. Each bottle of black ink is enough for about two tank fillings. The colored bottles are slightly smaller, but still more than the tank is worth. The bottles are more or less hermetically sealed, so the foil should be cut with a knife as recommended on the bottle. The built-in spout is long and narrow, allowing you to get a clean job (put on gloves and have paper towels handy if you're not careful). If you tilt the spout toward the back of the tank, you can easily see the ink level rising as it fills up. These big tank Epson printers are great! No more searching for expensive cartridges, no more expensive ink subscriptions, just refill cheap ink and refill less than once a year. I love it!
