Canon MB2150 Ink Absorber Full Reset

When Canon MB2150 triggers an ink absorber full condition, the printer may block printing as a protective measure. The solution is typically a waste ink counter reset.

During head cleaning, surplus ink is routed to internal absorber pads. Canon MB2150 monitors this via a counter and can lock printing at a threshold.

This page is prepared for Canon MB2150. Service mode instructions are shown only when a matching series procedure is known.

Reset the Ink Absorber Counter
