I was losing my mind, lol. 😅 Before I found this video that gives, PERFECT, STEP BY STEP instructions on how to fix your ink pad life problems. I have an Epson et-4550, and it solved my problems perfectly. The program she tells you to download is 100% safe as long as you follow everything she says and follow the prompts you see on your computer. Best solution ever!

@emilypitts133 9 месяцев назад

Yay! It worked. Thanks so much! You can type "trial" instead of a reset key and it resets your counter to 80%

@emmaseuphoricplanner3513 2 года назад

Thank you so much! This worked perfectly for my ET-4700! I was definitely worried I was going to have to put some money into it and I’m so happy it cost less than $15 to replace! Thanks again!

@marissascott9641 Год назад

Thank you SO MUCH! after tears and frustration with my DTF printer, I caved and did the download- Fixed my issue of the " end of service life" for the ink pad- Cost was $8.99 and it worked on my L1800 - Thank you Crimson!!!!

Thank You so much for the video, I watch it about 2 weeks ago when I started getting the waste tank error and wanted to know what it was. The only thing I did differently was I went to Amazon and purchased Maintenance Box Waste Ink Tank Absorber Pad Sponge for Epson for $9 It was no way I was going to deal with ink being everywhere LOL. I was ready for when the printer stopped working and it did just like you said. I was able to take the old tank out and put the new one in, grab me a code because I had already used the free one. Within 10 minutes I was back up and running. Thanks Again

Thanks for the video great job, however once you wash the pads if you bring them out the pads will drive flattened and they won't cover enough space inside of the case so you should not squeeze the sponges you should just leave them and firmly press on them but not too hard and just leave them overnight, I'm only saying this cuz it happened to me

@degloome1378 3 месяца назад

How long does it usually take for the pads to fill up? Considering getting an ecotank for medium volume printing.

@octoinkjet 2 месяца назад

That's very much a "how long is a piece of string" kind of question. It depends on how you use it. Counter intuitively perhaps you waste less ink the more regularly you use the printer as the regular printing keeps the nozzles fresh and ink flowing. Less frequent printing, particularly long periods of non-use (read: multiple weeks to months) often result in nozzles starting to dry out and clog so you end up generating a lot of waste ink by running printhead cleans.

@marlenejones6266 2 года назад

I washed the pads today. They are drying. Is there a time limit on how long a time to use or keep the code they send? I mean if I get it tonight can it use it tomorrow? Gosh I'm excited to get it put back together. There was a lot of ink in those pads. Sheesh. I'm going to order some pads for my 2760. But they take a couple months to come from China,. I hope they really come. Thank you so much for your help. Without you I would probably have junked my printer. You are a lifesaver.

@CrimsonCreationsCo 2 года назад

You should be able to go ahead and put it in just don’t turn your printer off yet, if you feel better waiting I don’t think the codes expire.

@lindajohnson2950 Год назад

Thenks for your video! When I down loaded the app, it is telling me that I have to disable my printer's status monitor. Is that what you had to do?

@octoinkjet 2 месяца назад

The reason for this is that the reset process requires you to power off the printer immediately after the reset command has been sent to the printer by the WICReset app. If the status monitor or a print job queries the printer before the power button has been pressed the reset command gets dumped from the queue and doesn't complete, wasting the key. So it's a good idea to disable the status monitor temporarily while you complete the reset. You can always turn it back on again later.

@octoinkjet 2 месяца назад

@@shannonvincent3710 The ET4850 is equipped with a maintenance box with a chip and that takes over from the waste pad holder and internal waste counter shown in this video. So the WICReset won't work with the ET-4850.

Run a couple print head cleans, printing the test pattern each time. And print often, this can occur on any inkjet when ink dries up.

@notcalbabe 4 месяца назад

i have the same security set up and its not allowing me to open up the download. any idea why?

@octoinkjet 2 месяца назад

Usually it's because the developer is not using something called a certificate to digitally sign the app. There's various reasons for that but that's for another day. The reality is that the app is marked as potentially unsafe as a result. Assuming you wish to continue using it you need to check what your anti-malware security needs you to do to allow the app to be used. That may be clicking on "more info" or temporarily disabling your security app to use it but it is usually possible. If in doubt, contact the reseller for the key you purchased... or find one that actively supports WICReset and ask them.

Can this be done from a tablet? We have an iPad and that is where all the printing is done from.

@octoinkjet 2 месяца назад

Nothing. The reset won't work for devices like Smartphones or tablets. You need access to a computer with Windows or MacOS to reset the printer. Once it has been reset though you can connect as normal with your phones/tablets.

@marlenejones6266 2 года назад

OK im so grateful I found you. So I have a 2760. I found the ink box. I plan on cleaning the pads. But is there a set of pads I can buy to replace these? I did a power head cleaning once and I print every single day many many pages for junk journals. It's my hobby and I adore this printer. I do NOT have 300 dollars to buy a new one. I'm sorry for my other reply. I have a damn toothache. I need help. I'm in tears now. I don't know how to fix this huge mess. There is so much ink in this box and on the pads. Please help me. I'm 72 and it's all I have for enjoyment. Thank you.

@CrimsonCreationsCo 2 года назад

You can rinse the pads out in the sink, like squeeze them and keep doing it until it’s clean. Then let them dry flat and you can reuse them, you may also find them on eBay that’s where I get mine. You’ll type in epson 2750 ink pad.
