EFF to Texas AG: Epson Tricked Its Customers with a Dangerous Fake Update
Update aside, the letter also notes the practice of disallowing third party cartridges in general is nefarious. I wish that were the case, but I liken it to the printer equivalent of HDCP.

Surely it can't be much more difficult than the 3D printers that were made in proverbial basements.
