What Is the Ink Pad Inside the Epson EcoTank ET-2550?

Inside every Epson EcoTank ET-2550 there is an internal waste ink collection system, commonly known as the ink pad or waste ink absorber.

Each time the printer is powered on, it performs an automatic initialization and printhead cleaning process. During this operation, unused ink is expelled and directed into the ink pad.

Additionally, every print job triggers periodic maintenance routines that also send residual ink to this internal absorber.

Once the ink pad reaches its calculated maximum capacity, the Epson EcoTank ET-2550 automatically locks to prevent ink leakage that could damage internal circuits and mechanical components.

In this situation, two actions are required:

• Replace or clean the waste ink pads, or install an external ink drainage system (dispenser).
• Perform the Reset Epson EcoTank ET-2550 to reset the internal waste ink counter that caused the printer lock.
