To reset the EEPROM and waste ink pad counters on an Epson Stylus Photo 1410, you typically need the Epson Adjustment Program (also known as a resetter) or the WIC Reset Utility. These tools fix the "Service Required" error that occurs when the printer's internal waste ink counters reach their limit. Method 1: Using the Epson Adjustment Program

This service tool is often available as a standalone .exe file. Be aware that most versions of this software are designed for older operating systems and may require compatibility settings.

Prepare your PC: Disable antivirus software temporarily, as these tools are often flagged as false positives.

Set Compatibility: Right-click AdjProg.exe or auto.bat and set the compatibility mode to Windows XP (Service Pack 3).

Note: Some versions require you to change your computer's system date to November 2007 to run correctly. Run the Tool: Open the program and click Accept. 9. Alternatives and Manufacturer Support

Select Model: Click Select and choose Stylus Photo 1410 from the model list.

Access Reset Mode: Click Particular Adjustment Mode and select Waste ink pad counter from the list. Read and Initialize:

Check the boxes for Main pad counter and/or Platen pad counter. Click Check to see current levels. Click Initialization to reset the counters to zero.

Restart: Turn the printer off and then back on when prompted. The data will be saved to the printer's EEPROM. Method 2: Using WIC Reset Utility (Alternative)

If you cannot find a working Adjustment Program, the WIC Reset Utility is a more modern, though often paid, alternative. wait 10–30 seconds

This guide is intended for the Epson Stylus Photo 1410 (also known as the Artisan 730 in some markets, or similar to the TX700W/TX710W series).


7. Alternative (No PC Needed)

If you cannot find a working "new" adjustment program:

  • Reset via service mode + button sequence (rare on 1410):
    1. Turn printer on with Resume + Power buttons held.
    2. Release Power, keep Resume for 10 secs → press Resume 4 times.
    3. This enters factory mode but does not reset EPROM counters – it only clears certain errors.

Limitations & Risks

  • No physical cleaning – Reset does not remove ink from waste pads; you must replace or rinse pads to avoid overflow.
  • No macOS/Linux support – Requires Windows.
  • Driver conflicts – Official Epson drivers may block the adjustment program; use in “Test Mode” or with unsigned driver enforcement disabled.
  • Permanent loss – Without a backup, original factory adjustments cannot be restored.

Step 3: Launch the Adjustment Program

  1. Double-click AdjProg.exe.
  2. Click "Select" (or "Printer Model").
  3. Choose "Epson Stylus Photo 1410" or "Artisan 1430" from the dropdown.
  4. Click "OK".
  5. Click "Particular adjustment mode" (Sometimes labeled "Special Adjustments").

Step 2: Put the Printer in Service Mode

This is the most critical step. The adjustment program will not connect if the printer is in normal mode.

  1. Turn the printer OFF.
  2. Hold down the following buttons simultaneously: Ink (rightmost button) + Paper (middle button) + Stop/Clear (left button).
  3. While holding those three, press the Power button once. Continue holding the three buttons.
  4. Release the three buttons after the green power light stops flashing and remains solid.
  5. You are now in Service Mode. The printer will make unusual grinding noises – this is normal.

Part 4: Step-by-Step Guide – How to Reset the EEPROM

Before you begin, gather the following:

  1. Your Epson 1410 printer (connected via USB, not Wi-Fi).
  2. A Windows PC (XP, 7, 8, 10, or 11 – 32-bit preferred, but 64-bit works with driver fixes).
  3. The "new" Adjustment Program (unzipped to a folder on your desktop).
  4. Physical maintenance: You should physically clean or replace the waste ink pads first. If you reset without cleaning, ink will eventually leak inside your printer. (Search for "Epson 1410 waste ink pad replacement kit").

6. Procedure — Using an Adjustment Program

(Assumes use of a reputable adjustment utility compatible with Epson 1410.)

  1. Close all other applications on the PC. Run the adjustment program as Administrator.
  2. In the utility, select the correct printer model (Epson Stylus Photo 1410).
  3. Establish connection: choose “USB” or the detected port and click “Initialize” / “Connect”.
  4. Locate the “Waste Ink Pad Counter” or “Maintenance Counter” section in the utility.
  5. Read current counters to confirm status and note values for records.
  6. If pads were serviced/replaced, check the “Set to Zero” or “Clear” option for the counter. Some utilities provide “Initialize” or “Reset” actions.
  7. Execute the reset operation; allow the utility to complete and report success.
  8. Power cycle the printer (turn off, wait 10–30 seconds, and turn on).
  9. Print a test page to confirm normal operation.

9. Alternatives and Manufacturer Support

  • Contact Epson-authorized service centers for official maintenance and counter resets.
  • Consider replacing the entire waste-ink absorber assembly or using a maintenance service kit instead of only resetting counters.
