Epson L210 Reset Waste Ink Counter
Epson L210 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.
The counter behind the Epson L210 warning
Epson L210 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 L210. The physical waste ink system should still be inspected and maintained when necessary.
