Adjustment Program Epson 1390 Resetter

Every Epson inkjet printer (including the 1390) performs routine cleaning cycles. It shoots ink through the nozzles to prevent clogs. That ink has to go somewhere—it drains into a spongy absorbent pad located at the bottom of the printer (the "waste ink tank").

The printer tracks how much ink has been flushed into this pad using an internal software counter. Once the printer believes the pad is full (usually after 5,000 to 15,000 cleanings or prints), it triggers a "Service Required" error. The printer locks down completely to prevent overflow that could leak onto your desk.

Here is the catch: In the vast majority of cases, the pad is not actually full. Epson sets these counters extremely conservatively to encourage you to bring the printer to a service center (or buy a new printer). The Adjustment Program simply tells the counter to return to zero.
