Absober full error

Hi

UnfortuantleyCanon has made it that the end user can no longer reset it themselves. From what I know, they have a special program that they use to reset the printer.



Unfortunatley. You need to take it to a service center and PAY to reset it, or you can scoure the net to see if anbody or indeed Cannon themselves release the software
