Canon MP268 Ink Absorber Full Reset
Canon MP268 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 MP268 from printing
The absorber pads collect ink generated during print-head cleaning. Canon MP268 tracks those maintenance cycles in memory rather than measuring the pads directly.
