  1. New WIC Reset Utility has availability for some printer models to make them Chipless.

    What does it mean?
    Printer will show 100% ink level all time you use it.

    You can get out ink cartridges or just IC Chips and printer will print as usual.

    Once You change printers firmware to Chipless Firmware - the printer will not need to reset ink cartridges, printer will not need to use Auto Reset Chips or CISS Chips - no one type of ink cartridges chips will be required anymore!

    To reset 5B00 Waste Ink Counter Error - You have to PUT PRINTER IN SERVICE MODE!

    Then use Reset Key. It takes less then 1 minute!

     

    REMEMBER:

    If for some reason You can't put Your Canon printer in SERVICE MODE - You will be NOT ABLE to perform RESET!

     

    If You used Canon Service Tool such as ST V3400, V4200 etc... - The printer will not be able to get in Service Mode after that.

    So the only way to solve the problem is to replace or reprogram EEPROM Chip on printers main board.

     

    If You cant put printer in Service Mode - You dont have to pay for Reset Key - it will not work.

     

    Please watch video tutorial - How to Reset Canon G series printers 5B00 error:

     


  3. When Using WIC Reset Utility You have to disable all Epson Utilities and processes, such as Epson Status Monitor, Epson Help Center, My Epson Portal etc...

     

    You can do it manualy or from WIC utility:

     

    Go to MENU - > Support

    Solution:

     

    You have to disassemble the printer and check all paper feed sensors:

    1. PW Sensor (at the bottom of the printhead carriage). It can be dirty with ink and paper dust. Need to uninstall, clean and dry.

    2. PE Sensor - check and clean.

    3. CR Encoder Sensor - check the encoder strip and clean it if it is dirty.

    4. PF Encode Sensor - check round encoder and clean if it is dirty.

    5. PG Sensor - check and clean.

    1. Check if printer is in Service Mode.

    You can NOT make reset if you did NOT put printer in Service Mode.

    First put printer in Service Mode then You will be able to perform the reset.

     

    2. If printer is in Service Mode but You get this message - that means that printer is blocked and you have to replace EEPROM IC in your printer.

     

    This is hardware operation so You have to go to service center and ask technician to replace EEPROM IC.
