Canon TR8051 Ink Absorber Full Reset
When Canon TR8051 reports that the ink absorber is full, turning it off and on will not normally remove the lock. The printer must be prepared correctly and its counter reset.
What stops Canon TR8051 from printing
The absorber pads collect ink generated during print-head cleaning. Canon TR8051 tracks those maintenance cycles in memory rather than measuring the pads directly.
Wic Reset Connect is designed to reset the compatible counter in Canon TR8051. The physical waste ink system should still be inspected and maintained when necessary.
