The Epson T27 is a widely used Epson printer. Like many Epson devices, it can stop printing when the internal waste ink counter reaches its predefined limit.

During head cleaning and maintenance cycles, excess ink is routed to internal absorber pads. The Epson T27 uses a software counter to estimate pad saturation and locks printing at a set threshold.

Understanding the Epson T27 Waste Ink Counter

A service visit is often unnecessary. Wic Reset Connect allows a safe Epson T27 waste counter reset in minutes.

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
