If your Epson L210 suddenly refuses to print and shows a maintenance warning, it is often caused by the waste ink (ink pad) counter threshold.

A waste ink counter in the Epson L210 accumulates after cleaning operations. Once it reaches a limit, printing is stopped to prevent overflow.

Understanding the Epson L210 Waste Ink Counter

Most Epson L210 waste ink counter locks are solved by a software counter reset. Wic Reset Connect provides a straightforward procedure.

Typical Signs

• ‘Service Required’ / service life message in driver or utility
• Maintenance/support code (varies by model/driver)
• Printing stops after cleaning cycles
• Warning repeats after restarting the printer
