For those interested parties, the class action suite against Epson has finally been settled and benefits have been sent.
There were many comments posted on the prior article I wrote, and lots of frustrated Epson users were waiting for results.
Today, I finally received my settlement benefit document, which included a check payment for $25 and a $20 store credit code to be used at http://www.Epsonstore.com.
For those that opted for just the store credit, you should be receiving a full credit of $45. For those that opted for a check and credit, don’t throw away the check stub, it also includes the store credit code.
I just briefly browsed the Epsonstore web site, and nothing jumps out at me; I will probably choose the bright white paper and some photo stickers. I don’t think the credit will affect the shipping charge, only the merchandise charges.
Important to note: The store credit is not active until June 20th.

JUST LIKE EPSONS CRAPPY PRINTERS, NOW THE STORE CREDIT FROM THE LAWSUIT DOES NOT WORK. I ENTER IN MY COMPANY NAME AND CREDIT CODE # AND I GET A MESSAGE THAT THE INFO DOES NOT MATCH THEIR RECORDS. Anyone else with these problems?

No need to SHOUT, I can hear you just fine, so untoggle that caps lock!
Anyway, yes, I had the same issue, but I was typing in the wrong zip code. I had moved recently, and somehow the Epson Settlement people had the correct address, but the Epson store still had my old zip code.
