The Epson L310 delivers reliable printing, but periodic maintenance routines can increase the waste ink counter and eventually trigger a ‘Service Required’ lock.

During head cleaning and maintenance cycles, excess ink is routed to internal absorber pads. The Epson L310 uses a software counter to estimate pad saturation and locks printing at a set threshold.

Understanding the Epson L310 Waste Ink Counter

With Wic Reset Connect, you can reset the Epson L310 waste ink counter quickly using a Windows PC, USB connection, and a valid reset key.

Common Symptoms

• ‘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

1. Step 1: Connect Epson L310 to a Windows computer with a stable Internet connection using a USB cable.
2. Step 2: Open Wic Reset Connect with admin privileges and verify device recognition for Epson L310.
3. Step 3: Enter your reset key and press Reset. Wait ~1–2 minutes, then restart Epson L310.
