Model-specific reset guide
Canon PRO-100S Ink Absorber Full Reset
If Canon PRO-100S 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 PRO-100S service message means
The lock is based on accumulated maintenance activity. Resetting Canon PRO-100S changes the counter value but does not remove ink already held in the absorber material.
Wic Reset Connect is designed to reset the compatible counter in Canon PRO-100S. The physical waste ink system should still be inspected and maintained when necessary.
