[edit] What do you want to know about Epson?

Yow! EPSON (how they like to have they're name spelled) do a heck of a lot more than that!

Well, uh, this article is a stub. You can help Wikipedia by expanding it. :) RADICALBENDER★ 13:41, 28 Jun 2004 (UTC)

Hey, no offence mate - it wasn't a bad stub! I'm updating the page as we speak however. I'll probably add to this tomorrow. I'm getting lots of the history from the Epson milestones page and incorporating it into Wikipedia. -- Ta bu shi da yu 11:58, 1 Jul 2004 (UTC)

[edit] Sequence of names?

If (as in the last line) the name of the company is Seiko Epson, why is the article named Epson Seiko?

Anon: I stuffed up. - Ta bu shi da yu 02:44, 9 Jul 2004 (UTC)

I understand. Thanks.

Well, I have now corrected the article and category's name to the correct one once and for all: Seiko Epson. See the following, from the company's own website: "An Overview of Seiko Epson". --Wernher 00:32, 15 November 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Warranties

It seems that the warranty voiding when using non-original cartridges could fall astray of the Magnuson-Moss_Warranty_Act for the US, as has been claimed in similar vertical tying situations, notably by Kingston for its compatible memories.

Maybe this should be added to the paragraph about cartridges ?

[edit] GIMP-Print

What was Epson's involvement with GIMP-Print? a thing 01:43, 16 May 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Maadiran Group

Maadiran Group is just a distributor of Epson products in Iran and NOT an affiliate company.

[edit] Why was Weekend Warrior information removed

I am curious to know why the Weekend Warrior information was removed from this article? It was not personally biased against or for Epson in any way and is verifyable information. All you have to do is go to a Best Buy or CompUSA on the weekends and talk to a rep. The information is not meant to promote or bias Epson products, it was just a statement of facts.

Or you could just call Mosaic.

I was planning on placing such a stub or subarticle for HP for MarketSource (they have a weekend program) and for Canon (BDS Marketing formally represented them)

A Mosaic Sales Solutions article is in the works as well.

The article needs to be expanded anyway with information about Epson technologies, such as DURABrite inks, Photographic Dye Inks, Archival inks and so forth.

[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:Wm logo.gif

Image:Wm logo.gif is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.
