爱普生 XP-355 重置废墨计数器
A waste ink counter warning can prevent Epson XP-355 from printing even when the printer is otherwise working normally. Follow the checks and reset sequence below to restore operation safely.
Understanding the Epson XP-355 waste ink warning
Epson XP-355 uses stored counter data to estimate absorber usage. The estimate may reach its limit before the pads appear completely saturated, but physical maintenance should still be considered.
Wic Reset Connect is designed to reset the compatible counter in Epson XP-355. The physical waste ink system should still be inspected and maintained when necessary.
