Greg, thanks to Bruce, I tried Wine. While it would open the Epson SSC 
Service Utility, it didn't help. I also borrowed a Windows laptop and ran 
the utility on it. It didn't help, either.

The problem is the message that is on the printer window. It will not go 
away nor allow anything to bypass it. I called an Epson printer repair here 
in Portland and the Tech said only a certified technician could remove it. 
Further, it would cost about $175-200 to repair the printer. That would be 
foolish of me to spend on a 7 year old printer, no matter how much I like 
it! Worse, I just bought $80 worth of cartridges and, of course, they are 
passed the return date!

Unless someone knows how to eliminate the "Service required...." message, 
this printer is toast!
