If this occurs, replace the Waste Ink Pad and reset the Waste Ink Counter set in the EEPROM. Resetting of the Waste Ink Counter can be done only from the Adjustment Program since this product does not have the reset function for the Waste Ink Counter through the operation Panel Switch. Refer to Chapter 3 "ADJUSTMENT" for the reset procedure. During repair service, the Waste Ink Counter must be checked according to the firmware version, the Main Board checker program version and the Nozzle Check Pattern of the Nozzle Check Pattern Print. Because another "Maintenance Request Error" could occur after returning the repaired product to the user, if the Waste Ink Counter is close to its limit, it is recommended that the Waste Ink Pad be replaced.
