Reset Waste Ink Canon Pixma MP130

The waste ink take is actually just a felt pad that sits under the printer mechanism inside the case and absorbs the ink from your cleanings.
From what I gather, it’s both a time consuming and expensive proposition to take to Canon to fix.
And they won't tell people how to do it themselves.

Remember of course, you've got to cycle the cleaning process a huge amount of times to get this to occur.

But when it does, there is a fix-it-yourself solution that is both safe and effective for the printer, and free.
You have to be slightly mechanical to do this.
If you you've never used a screwdriver and are all thumbs, but give it a shot or give it to someone halfway coordinated to do this for you.

You may RESET the printer code first if you like or do it after you clean the pad

The waste ink pad is in the bottom of the printer.You need to disassembly the hole printer to find and change it.

That is a shop repair to replace the ink absorber and reset the count, however it is not available for your printer. Canon would replace the entire printer during the warranty period, after that no parts or service is available.

thats how it is done on that printer, you need to look in the manual to check for yours.

You don't have to change the waste ink absorber. There are two in the MP130 and they cost about $15 each. I have found though that you can just reset the counter and let the printer run without any problems. I have done this with three now with no problems. Reset procedure is:

1. Start Printer
2. Press button MENU, then SCAN, COPY and again SCAN – the printer will go into the service menu.
3. select NVRAM ACCESS and further BY OK.
4. select SET Abs- m level and reduce to zero.
5. select SET Abs- r level (if there is) and reduce to zero.
6. Turn off printer by button POWER.

this is the user manual

hope this helps

This runs of a counter and not off the actual amount if ink in the absorber, so re-setting it once or twice should be fine. Try this method below.I found this solution from another user on FixYa.

1. Start with printer off
2. Press and hold resume Button (triangle in the circle) and click "Power" button. Green led should be on
3. While holding the Power button, release the Resume Button.
4. Without releasing the Power Button, click "Resume" button for two times and release Both Buttons.
5. Click "Resume" for four times then soon click "Power" button, to confirm the selected action (reset counter absorber).
6. Turn off the printer and turn on again

I hope this helps, If so please rate this response Thank you for supporting the Fix-Ya Community
Regards GM

Take the printer to a qualified printer technician.
He/she will empty the waste-container,
and "reset" the electronics inside the printer,
to tell the printer that the waste-ink container has been emptied.

If you absorber is full, you will have to replace it. You can either buy an absorber kit or have it replaced at a service center. A kit should be around $40 and to have it replaced including the kit should be around $100. It's up to you on how your want to handle it.
Sometimes it's cheaper to buy a newer printer.
