Read, reset and verify Epson ET-2800
- Use the connection offered for your printer and operation. Select the exact model detected in WICRESETPRO.
- Read the available waste ink counters in WICRESETPRO and wait for a completed result. A missing reading is not a zero reading.
- Waste ink counter reset is supported for this model. Select that operation and follow its preparation instructions in the app.
- For a supported full reset, enter your valid Pro reset key and start the operation. Keep the connection stable until the app reports the result.
- Restart only when instructed, then read the counters again in Pro to verify the outcome.
Once a supported printer is connected and ready, the reset itself can take about a minute. Installation and preparation can take longer.
Resetting a counter does not replace physical absorber maintenance.
Your reset key
Unused keys do not expire. After the first reset, you can reuse the key on the same printer for 24 hours. Unused units in a Multi-Key pool do not all expire when that printer’s reuse period ends.
Choose one Multi-Key with the purchased pool or the corresponding number of separate codes. Check the current product, price and currency in the store.
For the wider application feature set, see printer diagnostics and maintenance in WICRESETPRO. Functions shown there are model-dependent.
Questions and answers
Can I reset at 100% lock?
Yes — but many users reset proactively at ~95% to avoid downtime.
Will I see the counter after reset?
Wait for the completed result in WICRESETPRO, follow any requested restart and perform the control reading in Pro. Keep the before-and-after readings. A missing reading is not a zero, and a remaining error needs its own diagnosis.
Do I need to power-cycle?
Yes — turn the printer off/on after the reset completes.
Can I keep printing large jobs after reset?
Yes — monitor the counter and maintain the device as usual.
Any risks to cartridges?
No — cartridges/ink system aren’t altered by the reset.
