What is Epson ET-2800 Driver and how to install it?
– Epson ET-2800 Driver is intermediary software installed on computer operating systems to help computer programs communicate with the printer.
– To install the printer driver for Windows operating system, simply download the ET2800_ET2803_X64_30100_NA.exe file to your computer and double-click the file to run the printer driver installation program, then follow the driver installer’s instructions to complete the process.
Why does the “wicreset.exe is not responding” error occur? How to fix it.
The “wicreset.exe is not responding” error occurs because when the Epson ET-2800 printer is installed on Windows 11, it uses the driver built into the operating system.
The built-in Epson ET-2800 driver in Windows 11 doesn’t allow the WIC Reset Utility to communicate with the printer to perform tasks like reading and resetting the printer’s waste ink counter.
How to fix: As mentioned above, the solution is to download the driver from Epson and install it on Windows 11. With the Epson driver, the WIC Reset Utility can fully communicate with the printer to perform waste ink counter reading and reset tasks.
Therefore, download the Epson ET-2800 driver for Windows 11 using the link above, remove the existing driver, and reinstall the printer with the new driver.
After completing the driver installation, restart both the printer and computer, then try reading the waste ink counter. If you can read the waste ink counter, it means you can successfully reset the waste ink counter.
