I had a not to dissimilar discussion with Epson.

All of their packaging claim they get the "Eco Green Technology Company Award" time and time again.

Yet when the nozzles gunked up on my BX300X multifunction printer, and it could no longer print, the Scanner and Fax machine on it where also disabled.

When I contacted Epson to ask if there was a way to still use the Scanner and Fax I was told point blank by their support staff that, that was the way it worked, now be a good boy throw the old out and buy a new one....

They where NOT AMUSED when I republished everything their support folks had told me on twitter, and even threatened to sue me if I didn't remove it, but I stood firm, left it there, and eventually it vanished from sight.

I'm pleased to say however, that as of the beginning of this year, I actually managed to get the scanner and fax working again, it turns out the code to disable it was in Epson's own scanner software, I've since found out that the Open Source "NAPS2" scanner software runs perfectly well on windows, and I now have 3 A4 flat bed scanners, my old Epson BX300 an even older Epson before that (That had the same problem) and the HP Laser jet multi function I purchased to replace the 2 old Epsons.
