The Epson L810 delivers reliable printing, but periodic maintenance routines can increase the waste ink counter and eventually trigger a ‘Service Required’ lock.

The Epson L810 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.

What Causes the Epson L810 Ink Pad Counter Warning?

Most Epson L810 waste ink counter locks are solved by a software counter reset. Wic Reset Connect provides a straightforward procedure.

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
