FAQ – Epson XP-800

Why “Service required” returns soon after reset?

Heavy cleaning or intensive printing quickly raises the counter.

Will an external tank help?

It can delay saturation in heavy-duty use; optional, not mandatory.

Can I downgrade firmware to reset?

Not necessary — WicReset works at the service counter level.

Do trial keys fully unlock?

No — they reduce the counter partially (80–90%).

Can I move the printer during reset?

Avoid movement; keep USB stable until done.
