Resetting the Waste Ink Counter
The oldest PX/Artisan/TX models can be reset using an Adjustment utility for the TX700W / TX800FW.
If you are in North America there is also an IPR tool released by Epson for the older models but many
customers there have reported that it won't work after one reset (if at all).
The only option for the 710/725/810/835 models is the WICReset utility which requires the purchase of a
WICReset key to complete the reset.
Important:
Whichever utility you use you must be connected to your printer using a USB cable. None of the reset utilities
will work over a network connection
Remember: The most up to date information on reset utilities is available via the QuickFind tool.

Finished With the tube guide installed you just need to put
the printer back in it's normal place and make sure the tank is
firmly connected, and the tube clamp open. It's also a good
idea to make sure there are not folds or kinks in the tubing so
that ink will be able to flow to the tank. Note: Unless you have
the technical knowledge to do so, do NOT reinstall the
original waste tray and pads as this will crimp the tubing and
stop waste ink flowing. It is possible to modify the tray to
allow for the tube but not necessary IMPORTANT: The
PX700 (and related printers) do have a secondary waste tube
that is rarely used. However to ensure you do not get caught
out, it is vitally important that you place your printer on some
form of lipped tray or protected surface. I would also
recommend placing some absorbant material (such as folded
kitchen towel/paper-roll) in the area under the exposed area
to catch any ink that might be expelled here. As I've pointed
out, this additional waste tube appears to rarely be used but if
you find your printer is affected please contact me as I have a
custom part that will take over. It is however, VERY fiddly to
install.
