If you own an Epson EcoTank ET-4800, you likely bought it for two reasons: the massive ink savings and the reliability. So it can be incredibly frustrating when your printer suddenly grinds to a halt with a message that reads: “Ink Pad Needs Service.”

Have you fixed this error on your ET-4800? Let me know in the comments below

That excess ink doesn’t just disappear. It drains down into a sponge-like material at the bottom of the printer called the or "ink pad." Why is the Printer Stopping? Epson programs the printer to count every single drop of waste ink. After a certain number of cleaning cycles (usually thousands of pages), the printer assumes the pad is full —literally dripping wet with waste ink.

Don’t panic. This doesn’t necessarily mean your printer is dead. Here is everything you need to know about this error, why it happens, and your options for fixing it. Unlike older printers that used cartridges, the ET-4800 uses a super-tank system. However, it still needs to clean the printhead. During cleaning cycles, a small amount of ink is flushed through the nozzles to keep them clear.
