The waste ink absorber is actually a pad under the print engine, if you could change it you still wouldn't have access to Canon diagnostics to reset the counter.

My Canon MX320 printer showing error occurred 5b00.i follow what YouTube said and now it's saying service mode. And the alarm light is still blanking. What I should do next??

The error message "error occurred 5B00" on a Canon MX320 printer typically indicates a problem with the waste ink absorber. The waste ink absorber is a component in the printer that absorbs excess ink that is expelled during cleaning and other maintenance operations. When the waste ink absorber becomes full, it can cause this error to occur.
Here are a few things you can try to troubleshoot the problem:
  1. Reset the printer: You can reset the printer by unplugging it from the power source, waiting a few minutes, and then plugging it back in.
  2. Service mode: You can enter the service mode by pressing the "Menu" button, then "Copying", then "Functions", then "Maintenance" and then "OK". Once in service mode, you can try to reset the waste ink counter.
  3. Clean the print head: Clean the print head to ensure that the printer is properly aligned and functioning correctly.
  4. Replace the waste ink absorber: If the waste ink absorber is full, it will need to be replaced.

Ink absober is full

Eight flashes: Waste ink absorber almost full

The printer has a built-in waste ink absorber for the ink used during Print Head cleaning. Eight flashes indicates that the waste ink absorber is nearly full. Press the RESUME/CANCEL button to cancel the error so you can continue printing. Before the waste ink absorber becomes completely full, contact a Canon service representative.

Important

Canon recommends that you call for service as soon as this error occurs. Once the waste ink absorber becomes completely full, printing will no longer be possible

This is what the manual says: Ink used for cleaning is absorbed in a waste ink absorber placed in the machine. Press [OK] to cancel the error so that you can continue printing. Once the waste ink absorber becomes completely full, printing cannot be done until the waste ink absorber is replaced.
Canon recommends to contact a Canon service representative as soon as possible.
