Canon iP2772 Printer Ink Absorber Full – How to Reset

Canon iP2772 Ink Absorber Full Reset

The “Ink Absorber Full” / service required message on Canon iP2772 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 iP2772. Service mode instructions are shown only when a matching series procedure is known.

Finalize the Reset and Restore Printing

After service mode is enabled (if required), the waste ink counter can be reset using a supported reset procedure/software.

Warnings

Resetting the counter does not physically clean the absorber pads. For heavy usage, pads may eventually need cleaning or replacement.

  • Repeat the service mode steps carefully (timing matters).
  • Use the correct Stop/Reset press count for your series.
