What’s an Epson Ink Pad Error?

Epson printers track printed pages via ink pads. When the pad reaches its “end of life,” the printer locks, showing solid orange lights, even if it’s still functional.

This may feel like planned obsolescence. Instead of paying for costly repairs, use our free unofficial reset tool to restore your printer.

Warning: This unofficial tool is Windows-only. Use at your own risk.
