The program will show “Reset successful” or similar. Turn off the printer, wait 30 seconds, turn it back on. The flashing lights should be gone, and the printer ready.
Short answer: No. You cannot reset the counter via the printer’s driver, by pressing button combinations, or by unplugging the printer. The waste ink counter is stored in the printer’s EEPROM (Electrically Erasable Programmable Read-Only Memory). Only the service adjustment program can modify this memory region. epson tx650 adjustment program 22
Q: Is Error 22 the same as “Service Required” on my screen?
A: Yes. Epson’s Windows driver shows “Service Required” for most waste ink errors, but the service code is 22. The program will show “Reset successful” or similar
Q: Can I use the TX650 adjustment program on a Mac?
A: No. The utility is Windows-only. You can use a virtual machine (VirtualBox/VMware) with Windows, but USB passthrough can be problematic. Short answer: No
Q: How many times can I reset the waste ink counter?
A: Indefinitely via software, but physically the pads can hold only so much. After 3–4 resets without physical maintenance, leakage is almost certain.
Q: My TX650 shows Error 22 even after reset. Why?
A: Possible reasons: (1) The reset didn’t complete – run it again. (2) Another error exists – check for paper jams or sensor issues. (3) Corrupted EEPROM – you may need to run “EEPROM initialization” in the adjustment program.
