Canon MG3510 Ink Absorber Full Reset
The waste ink system in Canon MG3510 collects ink used during cleaning cycles. Once the estimated limit is reached, service mode and a compatible counter reset may be required.
Why Canon MG3510 reports an absorber error
The lock is based on accumulated maintenance activity. Resetting Canon MG3510 changes the counter value but does not remove ink already held in the absorber material.
Wic Reset Connect is designed to reset the compatible counter in Canon MG3510. The physical waste ink system should still be inspected and maintained when necessary.
