The p07 error message in canon pixma mp280 printers - full waste ink pads

The p07 error code in canon pixma mp280 printers, also known as the full waste ink pads one, means the printer has already done all the prints it could with the set of waste ink pads installed inside it. This error message is more common among printers with continuous ink systems, since these kinds of printers demands more ink absorbers for their own efficiency needs.

What canon is trying to do with this error is keeping the printer’s residues from reaching the motherboard and causing damage. Getting it wet with ink can produce short circuits and many more electrical mishaps, just as it would on any other piece of hardware. This will stop you from printing until you take the printer to a proper maintenance center.

Now we will show you how to restore your canon pixma mp280 printer to get rid of this error message. This post also includes a download link to a restore software.

Before you do anything else:

Turn off every printer attached to the computer, including this one. After turning it off, please disconnect both the USb and power cables from it. Then, press and hold the stop/reset button, and while it’s pushed down, press the on/off button again. After this, you must press the stop/reset button five times in a row to access your printer’s service mode.
Once you’re in service mode, your printer will move a bit and then show the number 1 on its main screen.
