The Epson TX100 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 TX100 uses a software counter to estimate pad saturation and locks printing at a set threshold.

Why Does the Epson TX100 Show ‘Service Required’?

A service visit is often unnecessary. Wic Reset Connect allows a safe Epson TX100 waste counter reset in minutes.

Common Symptoms

• Printer refuses to print even with ink available
• Epson Status Monitor shows maintenance warning
• Blinking lights and blocked jobs
• Device is locked until reset is performed
