Reset waste ink counter on Epson730 on Mac10.7.5?

Using my Mac 10.7.5, does anyone know of a download that will reset the waste ink counter on my Epson Artisan 730 printer. I have changed the waste ink pads, but my 730 printer has locked me out until I change the waste ink counter back to 0. The printer screen message is:" A printer's ink pad is at the end of its life.Please contact Epson Support. Turn Off." Epson support says go to an Epson Service Center and have the machine serviced. The Service Center charges over $100 to do a reset. I found a reset program online but it was only used on PCs not Macs. Any help would be greatly appreciated, to get my printer back in service.
Thanks

First, just to declare an interest in this as I sell a related product and solution...
That out of the way, to answer your question there are Windows only utilities that will work to reset the printers waste ink counter and just need to be used to complete the reset. Once reset the printer can then be returned to the MacOS machine and not need the windows machine again (well, not until the waste counter hit maximum again).
Alternatively there's a MacOS compatible pay-per-reset option in the form of a utility called iWIC. This requires the purchase of a one-time digital key to complete the reset itself but the utility can be used without a key to read the waste counters and get some other information from the printer.
Rather than repeat an FAQ on this all over again this article has more information and hopefully deals with your questions:
http://support.printerpotty.com/2013/mac-os-reset-tools
(Additional information related to MacOS is available on the same site)
One critical thing to note though is that resetting and then ignoring the waste ink is a bit of a daft thing to do so if you do decide to reset, then consider replacing the waste pads or fitting something like a Printer Potty to you don't later discover you need a new carpet, etc...
Hope that helps.

When I sync my IPod it remembers the plays and doesn't count them from 1 even though I reset the play count, any fix?

     The problem is I like to track my play counts and like it to be correct, and it was having some errors so I reset my plays on all my songs however when I sync my iPod it will remember the amount of plays for example, if I play a song once on my iPod and then sync it it will have 1 play, then if I reset the play count back to 0 and play it on my iPod again when I sync it again it will give it a play count of 2 and so forth as many times as it gets played.
     I have an iPod touch 5, the most recent iTunes update and the most recent iPod software (iOS 8.1) and am using windows 7, but I think the problem comes from the iPod because if i reset the plays and play a song through iTunes it will go to 1, but if i listened to it 3 times on my iPod when i sync it, it will then go to 4.
     I have tried restoring the iPod and syncing it so there is no music on it and then putting it all back on but the problem persists. The only other thing i can think to do is uninstall/re-install iTunes but I'm worried if I do that it will delete my music. That is not a big deal as I have back up files elsewhere on my computer but I also have album art, lyrics etc. for all my 1077 songs and id rather avoid having to get it all back.
     Anyone know how to correct this or is perhaps having a similar problem?
Thanks, Sean.

If you haven't done so install iTunes on your computer. http://www.apple.com/itunes/

How to reset the Terminal Count indicator on the PXI-6608

Dear Community,
Is there any way to reset the terminal count indicator on the PXI-6608? When I Use Get Attribute.vi I get the correct value the first time, but unfortunately (unlike DAQmx) reading the value doesn't reset it...
I'd like to keep track of how many times it has rolled over. And I don't want to use another counter to do that because I'd like to keep them free for other things.
Thanks!
Cas
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Traditional daq does not have a means to reset the terminal count indicator, as far as I know. One thing you might be able to do is change the "output mode" to "toggle" and then read the "output state" to determine rollovers by determining when the output state has changed during your application.
I hope this helps!

Why do my MAC Microsoft Office printouts always issue me an additional print copy of the Filename, author, date, minutes, words etc? It is wasting ink and paper. What can I do to remove this?

Yes but there's no point doing it here. As the Terms of Use make quite clear this is a User to User forum. It's Users like you talking to other Users. It's not a channel to communicate with Apple.

How to Reset Application Badge Count AS3

Hi,
I have successfully sent an apple push notification using a native extension for adobe air by anders-tbl. The notification simply sets the badge count to 1 and has a little message.
What confuses me is how do I reset this badge count once a user reopens my application or opens the application by clicking on the notification? The badge count always stays at 1 even if I delete the application and reinstall it, it’s still there!!??
I know I can reset the badge count by sending a notification with badge = 0, but I can't dynamically do this by sending an empty APN with badge set to 0 as you only get the device token on first application load? Surely you set this via some kind of AS3 function? I can’t seem to find any help searching google at all.
If anyone knows or can nudge me in the right direction on how you are suposed to do this that would be great.
Cheers,

Account Lockout - Reset account lockout counter after

Hi Expert,
Would you know any disadvantages if we set the Account Lockout Policy - Reset account lockout counter after to longer value e.g. 24 hours or maximum of 99,999 minutes.?
Regards,
Jhun

Hi Jhun,
I agree with Jack that when we configure account lockout policy, both security and user experience should be considered and balanced.
If we set the value of Reset account lockout counter after for too long,
Users may make excessive Help Desk calls, in the meanwhile, if this value is set too short, the attacker would have more chances to crack the system.
Therefore, administrators should take cautious when configuring policies, protecting organization’s network, and avoiding that un-related person having physical access to machines within organization.

Resetting Machine Authorization Count

I've installed iTunes on three machines, yet it says my authotization limit has been reached. I think it's because I'm using a dual boot system with the same copy of iTunes and everytime I swap between the two it asks me for my authorization again. Whatever the reason, PLEASE RESET MY AUTHORIZATION COUNT. There is more than one email address that needs to be reset. The following accounts need to be reset.
[email protected]
[email protected]

I know you can reset this information. Please do. Or tell me how to do this. Thank you.

Go into your account settings and do it yourself. Note that you can only do it once, so I really suggest figuring out a way to stop losing your authorization every time.

Why has the new iTunes reset the play counts on all my purchased music?

I installed iTunes 11 and discovered that it had reset the play counts on all my iTunes-Store-purchased music. What gives? Here's another thing, perhaps for a separate question here on the forum: play counts and "last played" do not update after a song is played unless I had specifically double-clicked it. Weird.

My God... I wanna know the same thing!

How can I print just a select/highlighted portion of a webpage/email? FF prints EVERYTHING on each page, wasting ink.

I switched form IE to FF. In IE, I could select text (or photos) and print just the portion of web pages and emails that I wanted, thus saving paper and ink. I have not been able to do that with FF. I have to print all of each page, so text, ads, and whatever other extraneous material prints. What a waste! Is there any way to select and print just what I need using FireFox? Currently I have to run both IE and FF to handle my printing and documentation needs. Thank you!

Still happens with Firefox 12. I wish they'd just fix it, the way it used to be in Firefox 10, without the complicated workaround suggested above.

Is there a way to stop the B8550 and D7560 printers from wasting ink?(Black)

I am having serious ink problems on two new HP printers. A little history, have always had HP printers. First was a 600 series desk jet one of the first consumer models. Used 2 years and never had to replace ink cartridge. Then I bought an 895 desk jet when it first came out -state of the art nearly a 1,000. bucks and it would print several hundred documents per black cartridge. Only had to replace 2 or 3 over the years. Finally the little rubber cap/seal (where the print head parks when not in use) lost its elasticity/flexibility and the ink cartridges started drying up after a few weeks. In the mean while I purchased a 5P LaserJet and used 2 toner cartridges before drum went south. Then added a LaserJet 1300 for volume black and white and have used 4 cartridges in it and still printing fine. Only problem with it is the cartridge cost as much as a new laser jet! I also bought a HI-TI dye sub to print 4x6 photos when I went to digital cameras from film. So a few months ago Late summer-early fall I bought two photo-smart HP's, a B8550 and a D7560 to print larger photos (they use the same cartridges so only need one set of spares, and it looks like HP is not developing new printers, but are concentrating efforts on the all-in-ones) and had planned to use the 7560 for occasional documents since I've retired and don't print high volume black and white documents anymore. These use the 5 ink, 564 cartridges and come in XL sizes. I bought an extra set of cartridges. The 8550 only printed 1 document before it ran out 3-4 weeks. The 7560 printed the alignment page and 4 pages on the first cartridge (Black) second cartridge, only 1 after set-up and the third didn't last long enough to print any. These printers go through some sort of cleaning/alignment/set-up procedure every few minutes and this wastes all of the ink needlessly. There is a large glob of dried ink on and under the foam pad where the print head parks. Needless to say but I can't afford $35.00 per page ink costs. Repeated calls to tech-support tell me this is the way they are designed for consistent print quality. This has to be the worst printer design in history or maybe they are designed to use supplies up needlessly (as some posters have suggested). The only way I have found to work around this is to remove the cartridges after each printing and store them in a zip-lock bag with a moist paper towel.
I would like to be able to buy an ink cartridge, install it in the printer, print occasionally and have ink in the printer the next time I need to print., and/or only do a clean/alignment when I ask it to.
P.S. I had a custom made computer desk and hutch built for my components and I need printers with front loading paper trays.
HELP any suggestions???
Thanks
DG

I use a HP Photosmart Premium 309a all-in-one that uses the same 5 ink system & technology that's in the B8550 & D7560. I've just checked & since the end of November I've printed 756 pages (730 documents & 26 photos) & I have not had to change out my supplies. On looking at the page yield info for the B8500 series (http://h10060.www1.hp.com/pageyield/en-019/yields/PSB8500_photo.html?cCode=us) it should be possible to print approx 100 4 X 6 photos with 564 supplies.The initialisation process that you mention is necessary to maintain consistent print quality and I hear this happening on my printer too but it usually only happens just before or after a print job. If your printers are going through the initialisation process every few minutes then it may be advisable to communicate this to Tech Support because it certainly does not match my experience.You may find that by taking the cartridges out and storing them in a moist environment that you may have issues with printing when you re-insert them because the docking filters on the print head may dry out because the supplies are not connected.
