Aborber full error message

Thank You for sharing this service procedure with "regular users". I'm just asking myself how big is the waste ink absorber? My printer (MP540) is like new. Last week, I just replaced the original set of cartriges which has been depleted after the first three months of operation. Thank You for sharing this service procedure with "regular users".

Thank you! Options were to take to a service center or purchase a new printer. Was up and running in 6 steps! Thank you! Options were to take to a service center or purchase a new printer. Was up and running in 6 steps!

Thanks so much!!! This worked for me. I thought I'd have to take the printer in for service but after following these instructions it got my Canon MP640 unstuck from it's printing error 6C10.

Tried this on my Canon MP640. Held down the two start buttons (black and color), as it doesn't appear to have a resume button. Followed the above directions exactly. It worked!

Hi
As I have seen most the ink waste is as big as 6 to 7 cm square and about the same in height and takes some time before it full; hope this helps.

Thank you. This worked for me. I was ready to return my printer but I can now print a doc that was urgent.

So far the notorious 6C10 has disappeared. Thank you. This worked for me. I was ready to return my printer but I can now print a doc that was urgent. So far the notorious 6C10 has disappeared.

Thanks! This worked for me! Only thing is that when I turn the printer on again after a day or so, I get the same error and I have to repeat this procedure. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't. Any other tips? Thanks! This worked for me! Only thing is that when I turn the printer on again after a day or so, I get the same error and I have to repeat this procedure.

Thank you very much!!!
No one had an idea what I have do to when the errror code 6C10 appears. My Canon MP620 is about 3 years old and there is no more guarantee. Your tip was saving me taking the printer to a service point or purchasing a new one.
i had to do the procedure two times, but then it works. Thank you very much!!! No one had an idea what I have do to when the errror code 6C10 appears.

this really works. thank you so much. mr. pine you are the MAN. I was gonna buy another printer and router. this really works. thank you so much.

Many thanks. I thought I would have to pay almost the cost of a new printer to get this fixed at my local service centre. Another ploy by printer manufacturers to rid us of our money.

It's a miracle! Thanks so much!
After 10 months without using my MP540, now it show me error 6C10. I changed all inks (there are 5 of them), but the error persisted... Following the steps you mencioned, the machine began working properly again :) And it took me less than 1 minute! Many thanks! It's a miracle! Thanks so much!

I think this worked for me. I did it a little different. I have a Cannon MX870. I tried this once and it didn't seem to work. Then I did it again and instead of turning it off/on. I copied something. Then It printed fine. Hopefully it keeps working. I think this worked for me. I did it a little different. I have a Cannon MX870. I tried this once and it didn't seem to work.
