5B00 canon MP830
Error 5B00 refers to the waste ink absorption pads.
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 error 5B00.
Replacing
the waste ink absorption pads is something an authorized canon service
facility can take care of for you.
