Thank you so much !!!! You saved my printer. The tutorials are absolutely perfect. I received the kit and the key rapidly and followed the tutorials and my printer works ! I hate my Epson printer because there is always something going wrong. I used to buy non Epson cartridges but it suddenly stopped taking them because as soon as I installed them they would show empty, so, I just bought 4 brand new Epson ink cartridges (the 3 colours + photo black, because the silly printer won’t print plain black without all the other cartridges that I don’t use but still empties them with time) and as soon as I installed them, it told me the waste was full, and I was so frustrated !!!

Given that you likely just changed the pads too it’s likely some ink has leaked from the carts, particularly if you turned the printer on its side or back. It should subside with time but you may want to mop up any excess in the capping station (area the printhead rests on).

I followed the instructions, took out the old pad, and the replacement clicked exactly into place, just as it did in the video. However, when I put the printer back in its usual place, reconnected the leads to the power supply and computer and turned it on, the same identical message came up again, telling me that the "pad is at the end of its life."

Ah. Inkchip has a different app called “WIC” which is not the same as the “WICReset” app. You need the app from the inkchip site to reset your printer. If the WIC app isn’t recognising your app you might want to request a refund and purchase a WICReset key instead. And yes changing the pads on their own isn’t enough. You do need to reset the waste counter as well to clear the error

Best guess at this point, the G4000 specifically has a different way to get into service mode. You could try this approach instead: - Power off - Press and hold "cancel" button - Press and hold "power" button - Release "cancel" button, then press & release "cancel" button a further 5 times _(the power/error LED lights should light up alternating with each other)_ - Now release the "power" button. The Power LED light should be blinking. Wait until this LED stops blinking and gives a solid light and you should be in service mode. _Just as a side note: I've tried to locate a G4000 here in the UK but can't find one to test and research on further._

Replacing the pads is part one of the process. You do still need to reset the waste ink counters to clear the waste ink pad error which you can do using the WICReset app (with a key code).

@octoinkjet2 ай бұрын
Had to check this properly and assuming you mean the ET-4700 (not the WF Pro-4700) then the process is effectively the same as the one shown in this video, and uses the same pads and reset key as well. To clarify on the way you tackle waste ink though. The pads are needed to deal with the physical waste ink while the reset app (and key) reset the waste ink counter which clears the waste pad error. Short version, you should do both.

You do need to reset the waste counter as well to clear the error
Do you have a video for the ET 2750 Epson? Was hoping what the interface (software) looks like and how to do the reset. It does not have a chip on the ink box.
The ET2750 is covered by videos for fitting the pads if you do a search on this channel. As for resetting you need to use the WICReset app with a key to clear the printers waste ink counter. We have multiple videos on this channel covering different computer operating systems if you search for “WICReset”. Just to be clear you can’t reset via the printers control panel.
Thank you so much!!!!!! You just saved my day!!!!!
Glad it helped…
Doesnt work on g4000
We don’t have a G4000 available to confirm but it should work. Is there a different error message/ code?
@@octoinkjet when i enter service mode, my printer just shuts down. also when i press the stop buttonn 3 times on service mode , the lights dont react. I have a G4000 too
Best guess at this point, the G4000 specifically has a different way to get into service mode. You could try this approach instead: - Power off - Press and hold "cancel" button - Press and hold "power" button - Release "cancel" button, then press & release "cancel" button a further 5 times _(the power/error LED lights should light up alternating with each other)_ - Now release the "power" button. The Power LED light should be blinking. Wait until this LED stops blinking and gives a solid light and you should be in service mode. _Just as a side note: I've tried to locate a G4000 here in the UK but can't find one to test and research on further._
Managed to replace the pads. Problem is the screen does not recognise the status change and will not go past "Ink pad is past end of life - contact Epson". How might I reset this ?? (before the printer goes in the bin)
Replacing the pads is part one of the process. You do still need to reset the waste ink counters to clear the waste ink pad error which you can do using the WICReset app (with a key code). You can find our playlist for the app here: kzread.info/head/PLfYhJgWvstULaWUXhdSrS8zTJObosmsvQ If you haven't already purchased a key (with a pad replacement bundle or similar) then you can purchase one here: www.octoink.co.uk/keys
I have a 4700 epson printer that I made a sub printer. I bought a replacement sponge pack for this printer. looks like the same process. I have not used it yet. I see there are reset keys you can use too. so not sure when I should use the reset key or finally just replace the ink pack kit. Can you suggest?
Had to check this properly and assuming you mean the ET-4700 (not the WF Pro-4700) then the process is effectively the same as the one shown in this video, and uses the same pads and reset key as well. To clarify on the way you tackle waste ink though. The pads are needed to deal with the physical waste ink while the reset app (and key) reset the waste ink counter which clears the waste pad error. Short version, you should do both.
Even for Germany easy to understand - thanks a lot! - an godd for the environment!
I’m curious if you had to rest the print counter? I had an older Epson X411 I believe. I did the ink pad swap and the printer still read that the ink tray was full. I had to download some firmware to the printer and roll back the print counter. Did you experience the same thing?
You do have to reset the waste ink counter. We have videos for how to do this using WICReset on different computer operating systems on this channel if you do a quick search.
I bought a key and did exactly as you described and I keep getting Query has been rejected by this device. Help!
It’s a known issue with WIFI at present. To get round it you need to use a USB cable connection to complete the reset.
