Model-specific reset guide
Epson L355 Réinitialiser le compteur d'encre usagée
If your Epson L355 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 L355 service message means
During head cleaning and normal maintenance, unused ink is directed into internal absorber pads. Epson L355 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 L355. The physical waste ink system should still be inspected and maintained when necessary.
Reset the counter in Epson L355
Prepare the computer and connection first. Most unsuccessful attempts are caused by a missing original driver, an indirect USB connection or another Epson utility using the printer.
