WIC Reset is Not Responding, not working and showing red error

You are resetting the waste ink counter for the printer, but the WIC Reset Utility software reports an error with red text or freezes – WIC Reset is not responding, and you cannot continue the reset process of the Epson or Canon printer.

To quickly fix this problem, we have listed some error symptoms of the WIC Reset Utility software and solutions for customers to fix themselves and continue resetting the printer.

How to Check the Communication Status between the WIC Reset and the Printer

To determine if the WIC Reset Utility is successfully connecting and able to reset your printer, the most straightforward approach is to launch the WIC Reset software and use the “Read wastes counter” feature.

– If the WIC Reset software can display the information of the Waste ink counters, it means the printer and the software are communicating well.

– If the WIC Reset Utility does not respond (the cursor spins and the software freezes) or displays an error message with red text, you need to check the error and find a solution before resetting the printer with the reset key.

WIC Reset is Not Responding

The “WIC Reset is Not Responding” issue has been common since the launch of Windows 11.

WIC Reset is Not Responding - Windows 11

The reason:

The main reason is that the built-in printer drivers in Windows 11 don’t allow WIC Reset to communicate with the printer for tasks like reading or resetting the waste counter.

To fix this issue:

– Download and install the latest Epson printer driver from Epson’s website or any trusted driver sources.

– Disconnect the printer from the computer and then reconnect it.

– Restart both the printer and the computer.

– Afterward, check the connection and reset the printer.

Query is Rejected

Query is rejected problem

Cause:

The reason for this is that you’re trying to reset the printer via Wi-Fi, but newer Epson firmware only supports resets through a USB connection.

The solution:

Use a USB cable to reset the printer instead of Wi-Fi, or downgrade the firmware to the 2022 version to allow resetting the waste ink counter via Wi-Fi.

Connection Error Due to Server Busy or Offline

Cause:

Server Busy errors are rare but can happen. This issue occurs when WIC Reset tries to connect to the server to retrieve information and verify the reset key, but it fails because the server is overloaded or offline due to technical issues.

It might also be because your computer has blocked the IP address of the WIC Reset Utility server.

The solution:

– Wait and try again later— you’ll need to wait for the server to be back online or less busy to proceed with the printer reset.

– If you suspect your computer has blocked the server’s IP address, unblocking it might help.

Windows Warns of Risk When Opening WIC Reset Utility

Cause:

Since WIC Reset isn’t available on the Microsoft App Store and can interact with printer hardware, receiving this warning is quite normal.

The solution:

Click “More info” to reveal the “Run anyway” button, and then click “Run anyway” to start the program.
