Model-specific reset guide
佳能 MG5720 墨水吸收器完全重置
When Canon MG5720 reports that the ink absorber is full, turning it off and on will not normally remove the lock. The printer must be prepared correctly and its counter reset.
Before resetting Canon MG5720
Cleaning operations send unused ink into absorber pads inside the printer. Canon MG5720 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 MG5720. The physical waste ink system should still be inspected and maintained when necessary.
