Read, reset and verify Epson DX8450
- 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
What exactly does the reset do?
It clears the waste ink counter value to unlock printing.
Is WICRESETPRO paid?

Can one key fail?
Unused keys do not expire. After the first reset, reuse is available on the same printer for 24 hours. Another printer needs another key or an unused Multi-Key unit; the unused pool does not expire with one printer’s access period.
Will I get a receipt/invoice?
Use the current product page and package calculator for the price in your selected currency. Your order is available in My account. For payment, invoice or key questions, contact support with the order number.
Can the reset be undone?
