Epson T30 Waste Ink Counter Reset
When the Epson T30 reaches its maintenance threshold, Epson firmware may block printing as a safeguard. In most cases, this is resolved with a counter reset.
A waste ink counter in the Epson T30 accumulates after cleaning operations. Once it reaches a limit, printing is stopped to prevent overflow.
