Epson TX700W Reset Waste Ink Counter
Epson TX700W 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 TX700W
Epson TX700W uses stored counter data to estimate absorber usage. The estimate may reach its limit before the pads appear completely saturated, but physical maintenance should still be considered.
Wic Reset Connect is designed to reset the compatible counter in Epson TX700W. The physical waste ink system should still be inspected and maintained when necessary.
