  -i, --info            Print information and statistics
  --reset_waste_ink     Reset all waste ink levels to 0
  --brute-force-read-key
                        Detect the read_key via brute force
  -d, --debug           Print debug information
  -e DUMP_EEPROM DUMP_EEPROM DUMP_EEPROM, --eeprom-dump DUMP_EEPROM DUMP_EEPROM DUMP_EEPROM
                        Dump EEPROM (arguments: extension, start, stop)
  --dry-run             Dry-run change operations
  --write-first-ti-received-time FTRT FTRT FTRT
                        Change the first TI received time (year, month, day)

Epson Printer Configuration accessed via SNMP (TCP/IP)

Examples:

# Print informations
python3 epson_print_conf.py -m XP-205 -a 192.168.1.87 -i

# Reset all waste ink levels to 0
python3 epson_print_conf.py -m XP-205 -a 192.168.1.87 --reset_waste_ink

# Change the first TI received time to 25 December 2012
python3 epson_print_conf.py -m XP-205 -a 192.168.1.87 -d --write-first-ti-received-time 2012 12 25

# Detect the read_key via brute force
python3 epson_print_conf.py -m XP-205 -a 192.168.1.87 --brute-force-read-key
