Canon iP4700 Ink Absorber Full Reset
If Canon iP4700 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.
What the Canon iP4700 service message means
The absorber pads collect ink generated during print-head cleaning. Canon iP4700 tracks those maintenance cycles in memory rather than measuring the pads directly.
Wic Reset Connect is designed to reset the compatible counter in Canon iP4700. The physical waste ink system should still be inspected and maintained when necessary.
