Epson XP-600 Ink Pad Counter Reset Guide

Epson XP-600 Waste Ink Counter Reset

The Epson XP-600 delivers reliable printing, but periodic maintenance routines can increase the waste ink counter and eventually trigger a ‘Service Required’ lock.

The Epson XP-600 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 XP-600 Stops Printing (Waste Counter Limit)

Typical Signs

  • ‘Service Required’ / service life message in driver or utility
