Canon MB2360 Ink Absorber Full Reset

Canon MB2360 can lock printing when the waste ink (ink absorber) counter hits a predefined threshold. This guide explains how to reset it.

Ink absorber pads store waste ink during normal operation. Canon firmware tracks this using a software counter and may stop printing when it reaches the limit.

This page is prepared for Canon MB2360. Service mode instructions are shown only when a matching series procedure is known.
