Detect printers
Identify the model over USB. If multiple devices are connected, you choose the target printer.
PrinterCare is independently developed printer maintenance software. It helps you read the waste ink counter on supported devices and reset it after physical service.
The first release focuses on waste ink counter maintenance and keeps unrelated tools out of the interface.
Identify the model over USB. If multiple devices are connected, you choose the target printer.
Read the waste ink percentage for free. The app explains readings with plain-language status messages.
After safety confirmation, Pro resets the counter and reads the actual result again. A completed command is not presented as a verified zero reading.

The app can read and reset a maintenance counter, but cannot replace cleaning or replacing a waste ink pad. Ask an experienced repair technician if you do not know the printer's construction.
