Epson B30 Waste Ink Counter Reset
If your Epson B30 suddenly refuses to print and shows a maintenance warning, it is often caused by the waste ink (ink pad) counter threshold.
The Epson B30 tracks waste ink with an internal counter. Because it is an estimate (not a physical sensor), it may trigger before the pads are actually full.
Why the Epson B30 Stops Printing (Waste Counter Limit)
Most Epson B30 waste ink counter locks are solved by a software counter reset. Wic Reset Connect provides a straightforward procedure.
Three Steps to Restore Epson B30 Printing
- Fase 1: Use a Windows PC (7–11) with Internet access. Connect Epson B30 via USB (Wi-Fi reset is not supported).
- Fase 2: Start Wic Reset Connect in Administrator mode and wait until Epson B30 appears in the device list.
- Fase 3: Paste the reset key, click Reset, and after completion power-cycle Epson B30.
Most Epson B30 waste counter resets finish in ~1–2 minutes.
If the Printer Is Not Detected
- Use a direct USB connection (avoid hubs).
- Temporarily disable VPN/proxy if validation fails.
- Try another USB cable (some cables are charge-only).
- Run the app as Administrator.
- Close Epson Status Monitor or other printer utilities.
