Compatible Maintenance Box for Epson S2100 / SC13MB (C13S210100)

Get your Epson SureColor back to printing with the PRM Compatible Maintenance Box. This is a direct replacement for the original Epson S2100 (also known as SC13MB) — clearing the "Maintenance Box Full" error and restoring normal printing immediately.

Looking for an Epson SC-T3100 maintenance box, Epson SC-F570 maintenance box, or Epson SC-T5100 maintenance box? The S2100 is the correct maintenance box for all Epson SureColor T-series technical printers and F-series dye-sublimation printers listed below.

S2100 vs T6193 vs T6997 — Which One Do I Need?
Epson uses different maintenance boxes for different SureColor generations. The S2100 fits the newer T2100/T3100/T5100 technical printers and the compact F500/F570 sublimation printers. The T6193 fits the older T3000/T5000/T7000, and the T6997 fits the P6000/P7000/P9000 photo printers. Check your printer model below to confirm.

What is a Maintenance Box?
The maintenance box is a small absorbent pad container that collects excess ink during printing, head cleaning, and nozzle checks. Over time, this pad fills up with waste ink. When it's full, your printer displays a "Maintenance Box Full" or "Maintenance Box End of Service Life" error and stops printing completely — even if your ink tanks are full.

This is not a malfunction. It's a routine consumable replacement, just like replacing ink cartridges. Large-format printers consume maintenance box capacity faster than desktop printers due to larger print heads, more frequent automatic head cleaning cycles, and higher ink volumes per print.

When Do You Need a New Maintenance Box?
Replace your maintenance box when you see:
- "Maintenance Box is Full" error on the printer display
- "Maintenance Box End of Service Life" message
- Printer stops printing completely and refuses all print jobs
- Warning message that the maintenance box is "nearly full"
- Ink pad counter reached 100% in the printer utility software

For large-format printers used in production environments, a full maintenance box can halt an entire workflow. Keep a spare S2100 in stock at all times — once the error appears, the printer will not print a single page until the maintenance box is replaced.

1. Instant Fix — Clear the Error, Start Printing: Remove the full maintenance box, insert the new one, and the error clears automatically. Your printer resets the ink pad counter and is ready to print immediately. The entire swap takes under 5 minutes.

2. Fits Both Technical and Dye-Sublimation Printers: The S2100 covers two SureColor families — the T-series technical/CAD printers (T2100 through T5170) and the compact F-series dye-sublimation printers (F500 through F571). One maintenance box works across both families.

3. Built for the Latest SureColor T-Series: The SC-T2100, T3100, T3100x, and T5100 are Epson's current generation technical printers used for architectural drawings, engineering blueprints, GIS maps, posters, and CAD output. Available in 24-inch and 36-inch widths, these printers are workhorses in design offices and print shops. The S2100 is their dedicated maintenance box.

4. Critical for Compact Sublimation Printers (F-Series): The SC-F500, F530, F540, F560, F570, and F571 are Epson's compact 24-inch dye-sublimation printers — popular for custom merchandise, sportswear printing, signage, and promotional items. These printers run continuously during production and consume maintenance box capacity quickly. A spare S2100 is essential for any sublimation business.

5. Covers All Variants: Whether you have the standard T3100, the wireless T3170, the multifunction T3170M, the bulk-ink T3100x, or any regional F-series variant — the same S2100 maintenance box fits all of them.

6. Compatible Quality, Same Function: The maintenance box is an absorbent pad in a plastic housing — there is no electronic component or print quality difference between original and compatible. It collects waste ink. A compatible box does this identically to the original at a fraction of the price.

7. No Chip Issues: This compatible maintenance box comes with the chip pre-installed. Your printer will recognise it immediately — no error messages, no workarounds needed.

8. Easy Installation: Open the maintenance box compartment, slide out the old box, slide in the new one, and close. Under 5 minutes. No tools needed. Handle the old box carefully — large-format maintenance boxes hold significantly more waste ink than desktop printer boxes.

9. Tested Before Shipping: Every PRM maintenance box is checked for proper fit and chip function before dispatch. Backed by our testing warranty.
