Model-specific reset guide
Скидання лічильника відпрацьованого чорнила Epson ET-14000
Epson ET-14000 may refuse new print jobs after estimating that the waste ink pads have reached their service limit. Wic Reset Connect can reset the software counter after the printer is prepared correctly.
What the Epson ET-14000 service message means
During head cleaning and normal maintenance, unused ink is directed into internal absorber pads. Epson ET-14000 estimates that accumulation with a software counter; it does not directly measure the physical amount of ink in the pads.
Wic Reset Connect is designed to reset the compatible counter in Epson ET-14000. The physical waste ink system should still be inspected and maintained when necessary.

Epson ET-14000 reset FAQ
Does the reset clean or replace the ink pads?
No. It changes the stored counter value. Inspect, clean or replace the physical waste ink system when its condition requires it.
What if the first reset attempt fails?
Correct the driver or USB communication problem first. If the key was consumed, use the new-key generator or contact support.
How long does the reset take?
The reset itself usually finishes in about 1–2 minutes after the printer has been detected correctly.
