Hi,

I'm not an expert with printers, but all printers I have seen so far 
need to have their ink cartidge changed by hand, not by a software tool ;-)

 From the apt info for escputil:

Description: A maintenance utility for Epson Stylus printers
  escputil is a utility to clean and align the heads of Epson Stylus
  printers.  It can also check the current ink levels in the printer.


So I guess you just take out the old cartidge, put the new one in, and 
then run this escputil thing to align the heads etc. and check the new 
ink level.

hope this helps :-)
