Epson EcoTank cleaner

Cleaning the print nozzles of an Epson EcoTank 2710 from Linux

This bash script allows you to check and clean the print heads of an Epson EcoTank 2710 printer accessible via network (USB not supported).

The data sent to the printer was collected using tshark tool (listening to the Epson utility installed on Windows).

Tip

Tests have only been performed on the 2710 model : please let me know via a new issue if the script works on another EcoTank model.
