Epson L3200 Reset Waste Ink Counter
Epson L3200 may refuse new print jobs after estimating that the waste ink pads have reached their service limit. Wic Reset Connect can reset the software counter after the printer is prepared correctly.
Understanding the Epson L3200 waste ink warning
Waste ink produced by cleaning cycles is collected inside the printer. Epson L3200 tracks those cycles electronically and can stop printing when the calculated limit is reached.
Wic Reset Connect is designed to reset the compatible counter in Epson L3200. The physical waste ink system should still be inspected and maintained when necessary.
Reset the counter in Epson L3200
The reset normally takes only a few minutes, but the printer must be detected correctly before the key is used.

Epson L3200 reset FAQ
Can I reset Epson L3200 over Wi-Fi?
No. Wic Reset Connect requires a direct USB connection to the Windows computer.
Does the reset clean or replace the ink pads?
No. It changes the stored counter value. Inspect, clean or replace the physical waste ink system when its condition requires it.
What if the first reset attempt fails?
