Canon IX6800 Ink Absorber Full Reset
Canon IX6800 may block print jobs after recording enough cleaning and maintenance cycles. Use the sequence below to enter service mode and reset the stored value.
What the Canon IX6800 service message means
Cleaning operations send unused ink into absorber pads inside the printer. Canon IX6800 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 IX6800. The physical waste ink system should still be inspected and maintained when necessary.
