It means that your printer's ink waste pad (for absorbing ink during print head cleaning) is getting full soon. Since the printer does not have a way to gauge the current capacity of the pad, it uses a software counter that counts the number of times you performed head cleaning and warns you if the software thinks that the ink pad is reaching its maximum capacity. What you can do is download an Epson printer utility to reset the counter (you can still use the same ink pad for a number of times but risk having the waste ink overflowing). To be safe, you can change the waste ink pad by yourself (if you know how) or have it sent to a service centre for change (which will cost you money).

True power psu refers to the efficiency of the power output is greater than 80%...While modular psu means u can modify the power connectors to suit ur personal needs and the power connectors are detachable...

If i'm not mistaken, HDMI is similar to DVI, it's just that HDMI also carries audio signal inside the same cable, whereas DVI doesn't.
So in short the graphic quality between DVI and HDMI should be similar

Means that HDMI is useless unless ur monitor has speaker? But normally the monitor built in speaker has poor sound quality...
