Canon TS6070 Printer Ink Absorber Full – How to Reset

Canon TS6070 Ink Absorber Full Reset

The “Ink Absorber Full” / service required message on Canon TS6070 is common after many cleaning cycles. In most cases, a counter reset restores printing.

Inside Canon printers, absorber pads collect excess ink from cleaning and maintenance cycles. The printer uses an internal counter to estimate pad saturation.

This page is prepared for Canon TS6070. Service mode instructions are shown only when a matching series procedure is known.

How to Enter Service Mode on Canon TS6070

  3. While holding Stop/Reset, press and hold Power.
  4. Release Stop/Reset (keep holding Power).
