Fix Epson NX415 Service Required – Waste Counter Reset

Epson NX415 Waste Ink Counter Reset

The Epson NX415 delivers reliable printing, but periodic maintenance routines can increase the waste ink counter and eventually trigger a ‘Service Required’ lock.

During head cleaning and maintenance cycles, excess ink is routed to internal absorber pads. The Epson NX415 uses a software counter to estimate pad saturation and locks printing at a set threshold.

Why Does the Epson NX415 Show ‘Service Required’?

Most Epson NX415 waste ink counter locks are solved by a software counter reset. Wic Reset Connect provides a straightforward procedure.
