Suddenly our printer -- Canon PIXMA MP190 -- stopped working and it shows E27
(E ... 2 ... 7
) error. From what I saw, this means Ink Absorber is Full.
Most of search results recommend to put the printer in service mode and to use a software resetter.
I am on a Linux machine, but if the fix requires a Windows machine, I have access to one and I can connect the printer to it.
What I tried:
- I tried to reset the printer using a software. That software doesn't recognize the printer...
I opened the printer and cleaned up the things there. A lot of ink was wasted on absorbers. I cleaned them up and put all the things together back.
Same error appears after this clean up.
How can I fix the problem?
