The Epson SX100 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 SX100 uses a software counter to estimate pad saturation and locks printing at a set threshold.

Why Does the Epson SX100 Show ‘Service Required’?

With Wic Reset Connect, you can reset the Epson SX100 waste ink counter quickly using a Windows PC, USB connection, and a valid reset key.

How the Error Appears

• ‘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
