Messages covered on this page

Epson E11 Error

Common ink pad or waste ink counter warning.

Epson E91 Error

Epson service warning where USB detection and counter reading are useful first checks.

Ink Pad Reset Required Epson

Direct message that usually points to the ink pad or waste ink counter limit.

Epson E10 Error

Service-style warning that should be checked with the counter value.

Epson E12 Error

Maintenance message often seen when printing is blocked.

Maintenance Box Full Epson

May be related to a physical maintenance box or internal counter depending on the model.

Why this warning appears

Epson printers count waste ink created during cleaning, nozzle maintenance and normal printing. When the internal value reaches its safety limit, the printer can stop printing to prevent possible overflow. This can happen even when the device still looks fine and has enough ink.

How to reset Epson L120 by USB

  1. Use a short USB cable, not Wi-Fi.
  2. Make sure Windows detects the printer.
  3. Optional: check counters with Utility.
  4. Open WicReset Connect.
  5. Allow administrator permissions.
  6. Paste the reset key carefully.
  7. Do not disconnect anything during reset.
  8. Print a test page after restart.

Do not disconnect the printer while the reset is running. If detection fails, fix the USB connection before using the key again.

Utility is only for checking

Use WIC Reset Utility only to read the waste ink counter and check communication. Use WicReset Conectar for the actual reset. This avoids entering a key in the wrong place.

Why this matters for this ink tank printer

This model is often used for regular documents, invoices, forms and repeat printing. When it stops with a counter warning, the problem is not only the printer but also lost time. A correct reset can be faster than replacing the printer.

When this reset will not help

A waste ink reset will not repair paper jams, scanner faults, cartridge recognition problems or mechanical damage. If the message is not related to ink pads, E11, Service Required or the waste counter, diagnose that error separately.

FAQ – Epson L120

Can repair shops use this method?

Yes. The same USB workflow works well for technicians handling many supported printers.

Does the reset work by Wi-Fi?

No. Use USB only. Wi-Fi or network printing can interrupt the reset.

Will this fix Maintenance Box Full?

It depends on the exact model. Some printers use a physical maintenance box. Check compatibility and counter values first.

Does this work on Mac?

WicReset Connect is intended for Windows. Use Windows 7, 8, 10 or 11 with USB.

Which program should I download first?

Download WicReset Connect for reset. Download Utility only if you want to read counters first.

What does Service Required mean on Epson L120?

It often means the internal maintenance counter has reached its limit. Reading the waste counter helps confirm the cause.

Good for home users and repair shops

Home users usually need one reset key. Repair shops and IT technicians often use multiple keys and repeat the same workflow: verify model, check counter, connect by USB, reset and restart.
