Epson Ecotank ET-8550: Reset Waste Ink Pad (Fix maintenance box is at the end of its service life)

  • Опубліковано 19 січ 2022
  • A maintenance box stores waste ink that gets flushed from the printer. When a printer expects the box to be full, it will stop working until the box is replaced.
    "Maintenance box is at the end of its service life.", or 'parts inside the printer have reached the end of their service life are some examples of error messages you may be seeing on your printer or computer.
    The chip reset fob is a hardware solution that we take the maintenance box out and reset the waste ink pad counter on the chip.
    The procedure is simple: take the maintenance box out and find the chip. Put the chip on this resetter and press down. Hold it for a few seconds and the counter will be reset to zero.

    Hey man. Thanks for the video. Can you share where did you buy the Chip Reset Fob. I'm finding to many online, not sure which one is reliable. Thank you!

    Thanks for the video ! Super clear.
    I see that it is written we should reset before 15% ? Is it some misunderstanding of the resetter manufacturer ?
    Also can you show us the internals of the resetter ?

    Why manual says that the maintenance pads is not user replacable? Do we also need to replace the pads somewhere in the future of using this printer?

    I have the 8500 which is the A4 version of this printer. Something I don't understand about these maintenance boxes is how does the excess ink collected in the ink pad drain to the box when the box is higher than the pad.

      It gets suck from the capping station then drains to the maintenance box through a tube.

      There is an electrical pump that, well, pumps the ink to the tank.

      The Original tanks are better, they're more efficient at preserving ink.
      Yes in the future, its too early right now.

    I have one last question, there is an extension of the warranty for an additional three years. for 180 euros. Do you recommend it? Would it be an extra protection important? . Did you buy it for yourself? Thank you for your patience

      ​@@HangryMuscle ok so im a little confused because ink pads are actual pad sponges that soak up the residue ink that comes out of each print. (not the printer head like the maintenance box as i believe that is separate) the 8550 printer has these as well doesn't it? Heres a link video to the ink pads im referring to. I believe the majority of epson printers may have these ink pads and can reach an "END OF LIFE" MESSAGE and they dont have replacements for purchase. i just wanted to confirm before i made an investment on this printer ua-cam.com/video/Ow6eqZELeBI/v-deo.html

      ​@@moneysssssss this is what im trying to figure out because someone on an amazon review said they were separate and that he was pissed regarding the 8550 printer because he made about 2000 borderless prints and the error message of "ink pad end of life service" was on the screen. he said they didnt have replacements and it mentioned he had to get the printer serviced and that it was separate from the maintenance box so im confused as well.

    Why pay $80 bucks for a chip resetter rather than $10 or $15 for a new maintenance Box?

    • @HangryMuscle
      @HangryMuscle  Рік тому +1

      Why keep paying for a replacement boxes, when you can just reset it.
      Thats $10, $15 plus shipping and downtime because you cannot print until the maintenance box is replaced or reset.
