Epson L3255 Waste Ink Counter Reset

Epson L3255 Waste Ink Counter Reset

The Epson L3255 delivers reliable printing, but periodic maintenance routines can increase the waste ink counter and eventually trigger a ‘Service Required’ lock.

During head cleaning and maintenance cycles, excess ink is routed to internal absorber pads. The Epson L3255 uses a software counter to estimate pad saturation and locks printing at a set threshold.

Most Epson L3255 waste ink counter locks are solved by a software counter reset. Wic Reset Connect provides a straightforward procedure.

Typical Signs

  • ‘Service Required’ / service life message in driver or utility
  • Maintenance/support code (varies by model/driver)
