Canon TS5080 Ink Absorber Full Reset
Canon TS5080 can stop printing when its internal ink absorber counter reaches a programmed threshold. Follow the model-specific preparation below before using Wic Reset Connect.
What the Canon TS5080 service message means
The absorber pads collect ink generated during print-head cleaning. Canon TS5080 tracks those maintenance cycles in memory rather than measuring the pads directly.
