The 'Waste Ink Counter' tracks the amount of ink used during cleaning cycles and other maintenance processes. When it reaches a certain threshold, the printer may display an error. While you can use the Epson Reset Utility to reset the counter (with caution and following Epson's guidelines), it's better to address the underlying issue causing excessive ink usage, such as frequent printhead cleaning or clogged nozzles. Consider using genuine Epson ink cartridges, as third-party inks can sometimes contribute to this problem.
