   • Thank You for sharing this service procedure with "regular users". I'm just asking myself how big is the waste ink absorber? My printer (MP540) is like new. Last week, I just replaced the original set of cartriges which has been depleted after the first three months of operation.

   • Thank you! Options were to take to a service center or purchase a new printer. Was up and running in 6 steps!

   • Thanks so much!!! This worked for me. I thought I'd have to take the printer in for service but after following these instructions it got my Canon MP640 unstuck from it's printing error 6C10.

   • Tried this on my Canon MP640. Held down the two start buttons (black and color), as it doesn't appear to have a resume button. Followed the above directions exactly. It worked!

   • Thank you! This fixed my Canon MX870 with the error 6C10.

   • Thx, worked in the first try. But how can the display refere to the manual when the manual says nothing on the subject....
     Well I'm just glad its working :)

   • Hi
     As I have seen most the ink waste is as big as 6 to 7 cm square and about the same in height and takes some time before it full; hope this helps.

    • Thank you. This worked for me. I was ready to return my printer but I can now print a doc that was urgent.
      
      So far the notorious 6C10 has disappeared.

12. • By EsthervN Jan 13, 2011

    • Thanks! This worked for me! Only thing is that when I turn the printer on again after a day or so, I get the same error and I have to repeat this procedure. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't. Any other tips?

13. • By atkinsonline Jan 13, 2011

    • Thanks. This was the only to thing to fix my 6C10 error on my MP640

    • Think for the last step, on my MP560 I had to click four times. The fourth time, I did not release the reset before clicking the power button,.

15. • By georgiebhoy Feb 01, 2011

    • I have got the same problem in my mp640, I can get into service mode ok on the lcd screen, but when I press the resume button 4 times, nothing happens then the screen comes up on another line "Idle", no matter what combination of buttons I try , nothing happens on the screen, how do I reset the counter absorber please

    • Hi. Not that clear when you say "click "Power" button"..then next step said holding power button...Well I just held power button and proceeded.........and it worked....nice to know there are people with knowledge on caring out real solutions--facing the factory saying "bring it in...WE have to fix it!!

    • Thank you very much!!!
      No one had an idea what I have do to when the errror code 6C10 appears. My Canon MP620 is about 3 years old and there is no more guarantee. Your tip was saving me taking the printer to a service point or purchasing a new one.
      i had to do the procedure two times, but then it works.

    • Wow! thank you very much! It worked!

21. • By weeix Apr 30, 2011

    • In step 5, do I have to wait until the green led stop blinks?

    • mr. pine you are the MAN. I was gonna buy another printer and router.
      this really works. thank you so much.

24. • By frangod Jul 07, 2011

    • Many thanks. I thought I would have to pay almost the cost of a new printer to get this fixed at my local service centre. Another ploy by printer manufacturers to rid us of our money.

    • Just had this problem with my iP4700 and the fix worked well - am now back in operation. Many thanks.

    • It's a miracle! Thanks so much!
      After 10 months without using my MP540, now it show me error 6C10. I changed all inks (there are 5 of them), but the error persisted... Following the steps you mencioned, the machine began working properly again :) And it took me less than 1 minute! Many thanks!

    • You little ripper. Clive.
      your bloods worth bottling :)
      Have you any suggestions for ink tanks that are "unrecognised"

28. • By ginoparadiso Oct 17, 2011

    • Thanks it works :-))

29. • By Ron Coobie Nov 07, 2011

    • brilliant ! Another Canon pixma ip4700 fixed -- same thing, wouldn't print got error code 6c10 and Canon said "Check the power plug or send it back 4 a motherboard replacement",..... 6 steps later and we're printing again. Thanks Clive & everyone else who posts their solutions online :))

30. • By Jeremy Haddock Nov 08, 2011

    • I think this worked for me. I did it a little different. I have a Cannon MX870. I tried this once and it didn't seem to work. Then I did it again and instead of turning it off/on. I copied something. Then It printed fine. Hopefully it keeps working.

    • With an Canon MG6150, which is full touch with exception to the power button, Just press and hold the power button. Solution worked fine
