-------------------------------
Re-setting the waste ink absorber on a Canon printer can resolve some error codes that appear when turning it on.

1. Make sure the printer is turned off.
2. Press and hold the Resume button (triangle inside a circle).
3. Whilst it is held down, hold down the Power button. The green led light should come on.
4. Keep the Power button held down. Release the Resume button and then press it twice. The light should go amber, then green again.
5. Release the Power button.
6. Press the Resume button four times and then press the Power button straight after to confirm the selected action (Reset Counter Absorber).
7. Turn off the printer and then turn it on again

Solution 1:

• Move the printhead to the center.
• Disconnect the printer and check on the right: is the purge unit ok ? No peace of paper ?

Solution 2:

• Do a reset of the printer:
• Power on
• Hold down the "Resume" button (triangle in a circle) for 15 to 20 seconds.

Solution 3:

• Power off the printer.
• Open the door.
• Power on.
• When the cartridge is in the center, close the door.

Solution 4:

• Open the lid and allow the ink cartridge carrier to center itself.
• Looking to the right, you will see a row of white rollers behind the carrier.
• At the end of the rollers there is a small, clear piece of plastic that sticks up. Take a small piece of a paper towel and wipe all of the ink off this piece of plastic. When that is clean move on to the ink pad.
• About 1 inch, towards the front of the printer from that piece of plastic, is a small square, about 1/2 inch per side, that is a small foam pad. This is where the excess ink is collected.
• Take a piece of paper towel and press into the foam. Do this until the paper towel is no longer collecting ink. Close the lid, turn off the printer then turn it back on.
