When Canon iP8720 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.
Before resetting Canon iP8720

Wic Reset Connect is designed to reset the compatible counter in Canon iP8720. The physical waste ink system should still be inspected and maintained when necessary.
