Epson PX-A640 Repor contador de resíduos de tinta
When Epson PX-A640 reports that an ink pad needs service, restarting the printer alone normally does not clear the lock. A compatible reset procedure is required.
Before resetting Epson PX-A640
Every cleaning cycle sends a small amount of ink to the waste ink system. Epson PX-A640 adds that activity to its counter and displays a maintenance warning when the programmed threshold is reached.
Wic Reset Connect is designed to reset the compatible counter in Epson PX-A640. The physical waste ink system should still be inspected and maintained when necessary.
