There are basically 3 solutions to your problem.
  1. Reset the printer to clear the fault
  • Turn the printer off with the Power button (if available).

  • Disconnect the data cable from the printer (not applicable to WiFi, Bluetooth or Infrared) .

  • Unplug the printer's power cord for approximately 10 minutes, and then plug it back in. If troubleshooting a communication issue, reconnect the data cable (not applicable to WiFi, Bluetooth or Infrared).

  • Turn the printer back on.
If this is unsuccessful, then the machine needs to be repaired. Canon does not recommend repairing/replacing the waste ink tank yourself. If you choose to make the repair yourself the waste ink tank is actually a sponge that absorbs waste ink. You can either purchase a replacement pad/sponge and install it or thoroughly wash out the old one and let it completely dry prior to reinstalling it.

There is also a reset code to Resume printer and temporarily remove the error as follows:

1 - press resume button and then press power button
2 - realese the resume button and press 2 more times then realese both
3 - press and release resume 4 times and power 2 times

I hope you find this answer useful and that is solves your problem. All the best!
