Model-specific reset guide
Epson ET-2815 Réinitialiser le compteur d'encre usagée
If your Epson ET-2815 has stopped with an ink pad or service-life warning, the printer may have reached its waste ink counter limit. This model-specific guide explains what the message means and how to complete the reset with Wic Reset Connect.
What the Epson ET-2815 service message means
During head cleaning and normal maintenance, unused ink is directed into internal absorber pads. Epson ET-2815 estimates that accumulation with a software counter; it does not directly measure the physical amount of ink in the pads.
Wic Reset Connect is designed to reset the compatible counter in Epson ET-2815. The physical waste ink system should still be inspected and maintained when necessary.

The reset normally takes only a few minutes, but the printer must be detected correctly before the key is used.
