Epson L132 Tintenverbrauchszähler zurücksetzen
Epson L132 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.
The counter behind the Epson L132 warning
During head cleaning and normal maintenance, unused ink is directed into internal absorber pads. Epson L132 estimates that accumulation with a software counter; it does not directly measure the physical amount of ink in the pads.
Wic Reset Connect is designed to reset the compatible counter in Epson L132. The physical waste ink system should still be inspected and maintained when necessary.
