- Physical Waste Pad: If you reset the ink pad counter, you are telling the printer the pads are empty. If they are physically saturated with ink, ink will eventually leak out of the printer and damage your desk/floor. Physically checking or replacing the pads is highly recommended.
- Ink Consumption: Heavy cleaning cycles (like "Initial Charge") consume a significant amount of ink. Ensure tanks are at least 50% full before running these.
- Version Mismatch: Do not try to use an Adjustment Program meant for the L6170 or L6178 on an L6290 unless the documentation explicitly supports it. This can cause errors.
