Title: Epson - Anyone from Epson here want to hear a gripe about your utilities? Post by: jbhaber on September 25, 2009, 07:58:14 PM I have an Epson R1800. I have a gripe regarding the usability of the Maintenance section of the driver.
1) I think the buttons should be in a more logical order from top to bottom. Why start with "Nozzle Check and Cleaning", then go to "Nozzle Check" then go to "Head Cleaning". I think the first one should be "Nozzle Check", then "Cleaning"then "Nozzle Check and Cleaning". 2) In "Nozzle Check and Cleaning", the button on the right is "Start" and "Cancel" is on the left. But in the Nozzle Check", the "Print" button is on the Left, and "Finish" is on the right. So not only are they REVERSED, but they're labeled differently in the different sections. (Not to mention that Print Head Alignment uses "Ok" and "Cancel" I'm just looking for some better logic and consistency here.

Actually, that's not the part that frustrates me. The fact that you click on Nozzle Check then have to click on Print--isn't that obvious? They go through that "double choosing" all over the place. After a head cleaning isn't obvious you want to do a nozzle check again to make sure it worked? Why not just do so? Heck even MS figured out that when you open a drop-down menu and click "Close" you really mean it. Less code also. Title: Re: Epson - Anyone from Epson here want to hear a gripe about your utilities?

If misery likes company, then I'm in good company! Title: Re: Epson - Anyone from Epson here want to hear a gripe about your utilities?

Good ink, and I print often. ;D :D ;) :) |
