     I’ve learned yesterday that #Epson is a #ransomware group. No less.
     They use #malware that degrade users computers in order to extort money.

     On a Windows computer with Epson software package installed, the software will intentionally degrade the printing quality if it detects non-Epson ink cartridges in the printer. The degradation is so blatant that the output is unusable.

     If you remove all Epson software, Windows will happily use its own driver and the output is perfect.
