Epson NX420 Waste Ink Counter Reset

The Epson NX420 is a widely used Epson printer. Like many Epson devices, it can stop printing when the internal waste ink counter reaches its predefined limit.

The Epson NX420 tracks waste ink with an internal counter. Because it is an estimate (not a physical sensor), it may trigger before the pads are actually full.

Why Does the Epson NX420 Show ‘Service Required’?

Most Epson NX420 waste ink counter locks are solved by a software counter reset. Wic Reset Connect provides a straightforward procedure.

How the Error Appears

  • Printer refuses to print even with ink available
  • Epson Status Monitor shows maintenance warning
