Canon TS3600 Ink Absorber Full Reset
An absorber warning on Canon TS3600 does not necessarily mean that the printer is mechanically damaged. The software counter and the physical pads must be considered separately.
What stops Canon TS3600 from printing
The absorber pads collect ink generated during print-head cleaning. Canon TS3600 tracks those maintenance cycles in memory rather than measuring the pads directly.
Wic Reset Connect is designed to reset the compatible counter in Canon TS3600. The physical waste ink system should still be inspected and maintained when necessary.
