SERVICE MODE TOOL FOR CANON PIXMA PRINTERS (IP4600,
IP4700...)
Tinkerers heaven
von Florian Heise
Its possible now to reset the ink absorbers counter for Canons
Pixma iP4600 or iP4700 and their MP equivalents.
Since August 2008 Canon has launched printers, which are working with
PGI-520Bk and CLI-521 ink cartridges.
If you get a message like "Waste tank full" or "Ink absorber full", this is the
end of the line. You can either dispose of your printer or get it repaired by a
Canon-Service-Center for about 45 Euros. Reason for that is an internal
counter for the absorber, which cannot be reset by in-house means. This
was different with their predecessors: A simple key combination did it.
Look here: Workshop: Change Waste-Ink-Tank Canon Pixma iP4000.
The following printers and AIOs (sincs 2008) are affected:
Canon Pixma iP3600, iP4600, iP4700
Canon Pixma MP540, MP550, MP560, MP620, MP630, MP640, MP980,
MP990
Canon Pixma MX860, MX870
First warning: "Waste tank almost full" or "Ink absorber almost full" when the
internal counter is at 95 percent.
When the ink absorber is completely full the counter is on 100 percent. A
green and an orange LED blink alternately seven times (thats 14 times in
total). And that means no more printing.
The driver shows a message like "Error code 5B00" and an advice to call
the Service-Center.

Ink absorber full: No more printing.
There is a software on the internet which allows you to reset the internal
counter to "0". When doing this you should also replace or wash the ink
absorbers.
Put the printer in service mode
To apply this software you have to put the printer in service mode:
Switch off the printer
Push and hold the "Resume" button
Push and hold the "Power" button
Hold both buttons for about five seconds
Let go of the "Resume" button
Press the "Resume" button twice
Let go of the "Power" button
When the green LED stops blinking and lights continuously the printer is in
service mode.

Canons service mode tool
You will find a "Service Mode Tool Version 1.050" on the internet. It will
reset the counter of your waste ink absorber. We assume it has been
placed illegally into the net, so DC will set no link or give you advice how to
download it.

Service mode tool: To reset the counter for the waste ink absorber for newer
Pixma printers. Printer must be in service mode.
After installing the program you see a surface like the one shown above.
When you click the EEPROM tab the printer gives out a status page, which
could look like that:

Service mode print out: Shows content of waste ink tank.
The second line (with a red frame) shows the percentage (D=094.7) of the
filling level. Here it is 94.7 percent.
To reset the counter to zero level (D=000.0) go to "SET CLEAR WASTE
INK" and click "MAIN", then choose "0" in the window to the right. Click the
next window with the two questionmarks (??)
To check if everthing has been done correctly click "EEPROM" again and
print out a status page. The second line should now read D=000.0.
To leave service mode switch off the printer and switch it on again.

Do not reset the counter without exchanging the waste ink absorbers. Unfortunately ink
absorbers for newer printers are not available yet as spare parts. As soon as they are
on the market, you will find them here: www.helpdesc.de .
