Utility for waste ink pad counter reset and printer firmware
Problem description
- Every inkjet printer has a reservoir for collecting waste ink known as the waste ink pad.
- The ink flows into the waste ink pad during printing, as well as during the cleaning or pumping of the print head.
- The printer cannot “see” how much ink is actually left in the ink pad and uses software to determine how full it is based on the amount of printing done.
- Every inkjet printer has a reservoir for collecting waste ink known as the waste ink pad.

What are the codes for?
- The waste ink pad counter reset utility is distributed free of charge. You do not need to pay for a license to download, install, and use it.
- To reset you will need to enter a one-time code. The code can only be used once, but the utility will reset the waste ink pad counter completely. This will allow you to print the next cycle until the counter is run out. Normally, you should be able to print thousands of pictures! This means you will not have to reset the waste ink counter again for quite a while.
- A list of compatible models can be found on the Models page.
