I have a canon pixma ip1600 printer that will not print because a dialog box comes up and says ink waste absorber is full, where is this located and how do I empty itWhere is the ink waste absorber in a canon pixma ip1600 printer?
Canons generally have four screws that hold the entire printer mechanism on the plastic base. Some models do have a power supply module that slides out of the rear of the case, remove this first. Remove the four screws holding the printer mechanism onto the lower case. Some models may have more screws, but becareful not to remove any other screws! It just lifts off.
Take the waste ink pads out and lay them down on some newspapers by the sink. Set the waste ink pads in the sink. Pour some of the cleaning mixture into them to dissolve the ink, then gently run hot water through to rinse it out. It will never look clean, don't try, just get it so there is little ink left in the wash water. It is a rather fragile felt-like substance so if you try too hard, you can end up destroying it.
Squeeze out as much water as you can. Do -not- twist it like a towel!
Reinstall the ink pads and reassemble your printer.
Once you've got the pad cleaned and the printer back together, you'll need to reset the counter or it won't print.
1. remove cartridges
2. unplug AC power
3. hold power button and plug AC power (keep holding power button.
4. press resume 4 timesWhere is the ink waste absorber in a canon pixma ip1600 printer?
