Error message " WASTED INK NEAR FULL."

My Canon Multipass FX80 is showing the error message "WASTED INK NEAR FULL." The only recomendation at the Canon web site or in the manual is to turn the machine on and off and then if that does not work take it to be repaired. On off did not work. Given the normal minimum repair center cost vs. the discounted new machine price, does anyone know of another fix or is this printer going to the scrap heap?

Canon Multipass F80 printer. "Check printer press resume key"

On the f80 you need a shop to go to service mode and get the error code and tell you what the problem is. Could be purge assembly, waste ink full, feeder error, printhead error, any number of possible problems.

Stopped printing after 'waste ink full message' how to I fix it.

Inkjet printers have a fibrous pad inside them that collects the waste ink from cleaning the print head. Over time, this pad fills up with ink and can no longer hold any more. When this occurs, the printer indicates a "waste ink full" error.

Replacing the waste ink absorption pads is something an authorized canon service facility can take care of for you. Once they are replaced, it'll be functional again.
