Thumbs down Epson printer service life

I have an entry level Epson printer (Epson stylus C45) about two years old.

It's used mainly for printing envelopes as my other printer has a tray feed that only has one tray and must be emptied of A4 and envelopes inserted to be printed.

When I last tried to use the printer, it reported "Parts inside your printer have reached the end of their service life, please consult the manufacturer for replacement" or some such message.

Pity I had just spent about $60 replacing the ink cartridges with genuine Epson cartridges.

I realise that you can buy a new printer for less than the cost of replacing the cartridges but some prior warning would have been nice.

I think this will be my last Epson product!!
