Canon MX525 can stop printing when its internal ink absorber counter reaches a programmed threshold. Follow the model-specific preparation below before using Wic Reset Connect.
What stops Canon MX525 from printing
The lock is based on accumulated maintenance activity. Resetting Canon MX525 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 MX525. The physical waste ink system should still be inspected and maintained when necessary.
