What is Waste ink Counter Overflow Problem
The best answer for the question why we get this problem is by the design. The Epson printer performs the printhead cleaning because it helps the Epson printer always print smoothly without any problem.
The Epson printer has some containers that contain the function called ink attraction. However these containers can only absorb limited ink. So it’s bad if the ink overflow from your printer.

Due to a lot of printer models so some printer red light will blink. In addition, the modern printer can show the error message in the ICD panel (The Printer’s Ink Pads are at the end of Their service life. Please contact Epson Support). This happens because of the protection for you from disaster that I noticed above.
Any manufactures can’t bring to consumers the risk so they need to prevent it as soon as possible
In many cases, from my experience, the Waste ink pad sponge has not saturated yet. I think the manufacture doesn’t want to take risk to give you a disaster, so they prevent the printer to print anymore earlier than it should.
So what can you do for this case? The answers is reset Waste Ink Counter or buying a new one.
In the first case is fixing, you need to reset the Waste Ink Counter.
