Canon MB5410 Ink Absorber Full Reset

When Canon MB5410 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 MB5410 monitors this via a counter and can lock printing at a threshold.

This page is prepared for Canon MB5410. Service mode instructions are shown only when a matching series procedure is known.

How the Error Appears

Reset the Ink Absorber Counter

Completing the reset clears the internal ink absorber counter stored in printer memory and restores normal operation.
