FYI - Epson R300 CD/DVD replacement tray

[Afterburner]

For those of us with the "Epson" problem and are waiting for a new tray
(backordered again) you may pick up a new tray for $4.53 + shipping
at Compassmicro.com. (Epson & Canon parts)
They have been selling about 80 per month and had 10 left today.
New stock arriving towards the end of the month, price goes up to somewhere between $6 - $7.
National parts depot has them for $10 + shipping.
Remember, Epson techs say this is not primarily a CD/DVD printer.
The one I own started acting up after about 20 disks.
R300 tray Part#1274077
R200 tray (same as R300)
R800 tray Part # 1262744 $5.36 + shipping
