Epson EP-4004 Waste Ink Counter Reset

If your Epson EP-4004 suddenly refuses to print and shows a maintenance warning, it is often caused by the waste ink (ink pad) counter threshold.

During head cleaning and maintenance cycles, excess ink is routed to internal absorber pads. The Epson EP-4004 uses a software counter to estimate pad saturation and locks printing at a set threshold.
