If your Epson ME-900WD suddenly refuses to print and shows a maintenance warning, it is often caused by the waste ink (ink pad) counter threshold.

A waste ink counter in the Epson ME-900WD accumulates after cleaning operations. Once it reaches a limit, printing is stopped to prevent overflow.

Why Does the Epson ME-900WD Show ‘Service Required’?

With Wic Reset Connect, you can reset the Epson ME-900WD 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
