Should fix you right up!

The waste ink absorbers are usually small pads at the bottom of the printer. You need to pull them. This is usually messy and can require basically taking apart the printer. Then either replace (contact a service center) or rinse clean the pads (just running water works). Once the pads are dry (if reusing them), reinstall them.

Then reset the counter:
1) Close the print head cover, and turn off the printer. While pressing the Resume/Cancel button, press the Power button. (Do not release the buttons. The LED lights in green to indicate that a function is selectable.)

2) While holding the Power button, release the Resume/Cancel button. (Do not release the Power button.)

3) While holding the Power button, press the Resume/Cancel button three times, and then release the Power and Resume/Cancel buttons. (Each time the Resume/Cancel button is pressed, the LED lights alternately in either orange or green, starting with orange.) During initialization, the LED blinks in green.

4) When the LED stops blinking and lights in green, press the Resume/Cancel button the 4 times. (Each time the Resume/Cancel button is pressed, the LED lights alternately in either orange or green, starting with orange.)

5) Press the Power button. The LED lights in green, and the
selected function is performed. (When the operation completes, the printer returns to the menu selection mode automatically.)

6) Power off then back on and test.

Do not do the reset until the ink absorber is cleaned. The waste ink will get everywhere in the printer and the pages you print.

I hope this helps.

(most ink jets are really designed to be replaced if the waste ink absorber is full - the other parts may soon fail too.)

Three choices. 1. Take it in for repair. 2.Take the top off and remove and clean the pad. 3. Use the following instructions to reset the printer and continue printing. I chose number 3 and haven't had any problems.
