How to Reset Epson NX515 Waste Ink Counter

Epson NX515 Waste Ink Counter Reset

If your Epson NX515 suddenly refuses to print and shows a maintenance warning, it is often caused by the waste ink (ink pad) counter threshold.

The Epson NX515 tracks waste ink with an internal counter. Because it is an estimate (not a physical sensor), it may trigger before the pads are actually full.

Most Epson NX515 waste ink counter locks are solved by a software counter reset. Wic Reset Connect provides a straightforward procedure.

How the Error Appears

  • ‘Service Required’ / service life message in driver or utility
