Canon MG5350 Ink Absorber Full Reset
If Canon MG5350 displays an ink absorber full or service-required warning, the stored waste ink counter may have reached its limit. This guide covers service mode, USB preparation and the reset itself.
Why Canon MG5350 reports an absorber error
Waste ink is routed away from the print head and retained inside the printer. The firmware in Canon MG5350 calculates usage and may stop new jobs to reduce overflow risk.
Wic Reset Connect is designed to reset the compatible counter in Canon MG5350. The physical waste ink system should still be inspected and maintained when necessary.
