Why Epson L3150 shows Service Required or Error E11

The Epson L3150 series tracks maintenance ink inside the printer. After many cleanings and normal use, the internal waste ink counter reaches its limit. When that happens, the printer may stop printing and display messages like:

  • Epson L3150 Service Required
  • Epson L3150 Error E11
  • The Ink Pad Needs Service
  • Ink pad is at the end of its service life
  • Parts inside your printer are at the end of their service life

In that situation, the correct solution is an Epson L3150 waste ink counter reset. The reset clears the internal maintenance counter so the printer can work again.

Quick answer: If your Epson L3150, L3151, L3152, L3153, L3156 or L3158 shows Service Required or Error E11, you usually need to reset the waste ink counter with WicReset Connect.
