Canon TS8390 Ink Absorber Full Reset
If Canon TS8390 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.
The waste ink counter inside Canon TS8390
Canon TS8390 uses a stored counter as a maintenance safeguard. Reaching the threshold can produce an Ink Absorber Full, Service Required or related support-code message.
Wic Reset Connect is designed to reset the compatible counter in Canon TS8390. The physical waste ink system should still be inspected and maintained when necessary.
