For “North American users” Epson now offers a tool to increase the self destruct counter one, single, time.
There are third parties now, that offer a reset of the software destruct counter, for a fee.
The fact that a printer sold as “Eco” has a software self destruct that the user requires an unlock key to reset - an occurrence frequent enough to make it a profitable business for third parties to sell such keys - should tell you all you need to know about these printers.
There appear to be higher end models without this self destruct, but most consumer models have this limitation.

Thanks for the info, that’s absurd. I don’t know why more people are talking about this then.
