Epson TX130 Reset Waste Ink Counter
If your Epson TX130 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.
Understanding the Epson TX130 waste ink warning
The printer protects against possible ink overflow by monitoring an internal service counter. On Epson TX130, reaching the threshold can trigger an ink pad warning and block further jobs.
Wic Reset Connect is designed to reset the compatible counter in Epson TX130. The physical waste ink system should still be inspected and maintained when necessary.
