Canon MX534 Ink Absorber Full Reset
The waste ink system in Canon MX534 collects ink used during cleaning cycles. Once the estimated limit is reached, service mode and a compatible counter reset may be required.
Understanding the Canon MX534 ink absorber warning
An absorber message concerns both software and maintenance. The counter can be reset, while heavily saturated pads may still need cleaning or replacement.
Wic Reset Connect is designed to reset the compatible counter in Canon MX534. The physical waste ink system should still be inspected and maintained when necessary.
