Epson NX635 Reset Waste Ink Counter
Epson NX635 records cleaning cycles and waste ink usage in an internal counter. When that value reaches its programmed limit, printing can stop until the counter is reset.
Why the ink pad counter blocks Epson NX635
An ink pad message is a maintenance safeguard. It indicates that Epson NX635 has reached a stored waste ink value that must be reset before normal printing can resume.
Wic Reset Connect is designed to reset the compatible counter in Epson NX635. The physical waste ink system should still be inspected and maintained when necessary.
