Canon PRO-200 Ink Absorber Full Reset
An absorber warning on Canon PRO-200 does not necessarily mean that the printer is mechanically damaged. The software counter and the physical pads must be considered separately.
Why Canon PRO-200 reports an absorber error
The absorber pads collect ink generated during print-head cleaning. Canon PRO-200 tracks those maintenance cycles in memory rather than measuring the pads directly.
Wic Reset Connect is designed to reset the compatible counter in Canon PRO-200. The physical waste ink system should still be inspected and maintained when necessary.
