Epson EP-904A Waste Ink Counter Reset

If your Epson EP-904A suddenly refuses to print and shows a maintenance warning, it is often caused by the waste ink (ink pad) counter threshold.

A waste ink counter in the Epson EP-904A accumulates after cleaning operations. Once it reaches a limit, printing is stopped to prevent overflow.
