Epson PX820WD – A hulladékfesték-számláló visszaállítása
Epson PX820WD 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.
Understanding the Epson PX820WD waste ink warning
Waste ink produced by cleaning cycles is collected inside the printer. Epson PX820WD tracks those cycles electronically and can stop printing when the calculated limit is reached.
Wic Reset Connect is designed to reset the compatible counter in Epson PX820WD. The physical waste ink system should still be inspected and maintained when necessary.
