Epson XP-810 Reset Waste Ink Counter
Epson XP-810 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.
Before resetting Epson XP-810
During head cleaning and normal maintenance, unused ink is directed into internal absorber pads. Epson XP-810 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 XP-810. The physical waste ink system should still be inspected and maintained when necessary.

Epson XP-810 reset FAQ
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.
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.
Does Epson XP-810 need service mode?
No. Epson printers do not use the Canon service-mode sequence. Connect the printer normally by USB.
