eebsvc.exe is a background process that allows your printer and your computer to communicate status information, such as the state of the printer (whether or not it is ready to print), ink levels and so forth. It is installed automatically with the drivers for certain Epson printers and should be considered a part of the standard software needed to run your printer.http://www.neuber.com/taskmanager/process/eebsvc.exe.html 

If you want a detailed security rating about your eEBSvc.exe (and all other running background processes) read the following user opinions, and download the free trial version of Security Task Manager.

Note: Any malware can be named anything - so you should check where the files of the running processes are located on your disk. If a "non-Microsoft" .exe file is located in the C:\Windows or C:\Windows\System32 folder, then there is a high risk for a virus, spyware, trojan or worm infection! Check it out!

rate1 The eebsvc.exe process will communicate with your Epson printer to send and receive status information regarding the state of print requests and/or ink levels remaining. If you stop this process your computer will not be able to determine the status of your printer, and so may not be able to use your printer. If you do not have an Epson Stylus printer you can terminate this process.   OAST.com
rate2 This is the Epson Printer Communication Module, which includes updates, thats why it uses ports.   Computer Technician
