Canon TS8370 Ink Absorber Full Reset
When Canon TS8370 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.
Why Canon TS8370 reports an absorber error
Cleaning operations send unused ink into absorber pads inside the printer. Canon TS8370 estimates their usage with an electronic counter and can lock printing when that value reaches its limit.
Wic Reset Connect is designed to reset the compatible counter in Canon TS8370. The physical waste ink system should still be inspected and maintained when necessary.
