False positive? Software to charge printer cartridges removed - heur.Adv.MLB

Win 10 PC.
I use an Epson 3000 printer.  I have an airlock in one cartridge stopping it from working.   The solution offered by Fotospeed (providers of the Inkjet refillable cartridges) is to replace the chips on the inkjet cartridges (so the printer believes it is a brank new set of cartridges on a new printer.   Then to run software to "charge" the printer in the same way as you'd charge a machine on first commissioning before sale.... effectively this treats the ink path with the airlock as though it is an empty path to be filled prior to first use.

The software to Charge the cartridges AdjProj.exe is flagged as rarely used (as it has a niche use and would rarely be used by end users) but is being flagged by Norton 360 as containing a threat (heur.Adv.ML.B) and the file is deleted rather than quarantined .

So two questions:   How do I submit to Norton to check / evaluate - to ensure it is a false positive, and how do I resolve this so that I can get my printer working again?  

Thanks,

Curious, is your Norton Heuristic Protection on Automatic?
Have you tried turning off Heuristic Protection temporarily...to get your printer working?
Have you tried turning off Auto-Protect temporarily...to get your printer working?
Curious, what happens with Restore &or Options? 


Were my machine and I trusted the "software" as safe. 
I'd try Restore &or Options.
I'd try to get file checksum/hash with Copy to Clipboard > paste to Notepad. 
I'd try to get second opinion file at VirusTotal.  Sure sounds like a false positive. 
I'd submit AdjProj.exe as false positive and exclude the entire software folder.   
Just me.

Curious, is the "software AdjProj.exe" from Fotospeed or Epson.  
Is "software AdjProj.exe" free and publicly available?

Edit:  I'm seeing in your screenshot Adj.Prog.exe

Norton IS 2014 wants to delete the Epson adjustment program (1.0.1, for the R3000), saying that it is a threat. Other major anti-malware programs (i.e., Malwarebytes and Emsisoft) don't have a problem.

I assume that a number of people here are using the program. Have you found it safe?

Adjustment programs allow you to in fact "Hack" your printer.  So they are seen or detected as Bad.  When you use them you need to close your anti virus software.
