The Adjustment Program is a proprietary service utility developed by Epson for technicians. Unlike the standard printer drivers you download from the Epson website, the Adjustment Program is a low-level diagnostic and maintenance tool. It allows users to access the printer’s internal memory (the EEPROM) to reset specific counters.

Epson’s warranty policy explicitly states that using unauthorised service software can void your warranty. If your printer still has a valid manufacturer’s warranty, the safest course of action is to contact Epson Support or an authorised service centre.
