If Canon MX894 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 MX894 service message means
Cleaning operations send unused ink into absorber pads inside the printer. Canon MX894 estimates their usage with an electronic counter and can lock printing when that value reaches its limit.
Wic Reset Connect is designed to reset the compatible counter in Canon MX894. The physical waste ink system should still be inspected and maintained when necessary.
