crdc:
i'm interested, too. i'm running 1.4e, also d/l'ed from the russian side a while ago and had no problems installing. but then, i never had any problems with my prior version (i think it was 1.2) either.

does anyone know what kind of improvements were done to justify a "problematic" update? if the changes are minor, then it's definitely not worth the hassle.

and yes, it's bad enough that epson does not provide a download for such an important program!

my $0.02.
