Download Canon Service Tool v.3400

Service Tool is a tool used to reset Canon printers after component replacement such as: Logic Board Assy, Waste Ink Absorber, Print Head, etc. In repairing Canon printers, the use of the Service Tool is most often done to overcome the error "Waste ink absorber is full". When a "Waste ink absorber is full" error occurs, after replacing the waste ink absorber, the next step is to reset the waste ink counter. Using the Service Tool to reset the waste ink counter which is not followed by replacing the waste ink absorber, the reset made becomes not effective. This is because when the waste ink counter has been reset to zero, while the waste ink absorber that is installed is in full condition, it is most likely that the waste ink will overflow.

The Waste ink absorber full of errors occurs in two stages
Stage 1 is called Operator Call Error
Stage 2 is called Service Call Error

Stage 1 is called Operator Call Error
When the printer is used for printing, a warning appears "Warning: The ink absorber is almost full. Press the printer's Start button to continue printing" (see Operator Call Error image). This warning appears when the waste ink absorber reaches a capacity of approximately 95%. By pressing the Start button (the Black button for black print outs, and the Color button for color print outs) the printing process can still continue.
Operator Call Error. The ink absorber is almost full. Press the printer's Start button to continue printing


Stage 2 is called Service Call Error
"Warning: The ink absorber is almost full" changes to the error message "The ink absorber is full". When this error message appears, the printer can no longer be used, because the waste ink absorber reaches 100% capacity. Because the printer can no longer be used, the printer must be repaired immediately, or called "Service Call Error". Repair can be done when "Operator Call Error" occurs, or when "Service Call Error" occurs.
Service Call Error. The ink absorber is full

How to use Service Tool v.3400
1.  Start the machine in the service mode
2.  Resetting the printer with Service Tool v.3400

1.  Start the machine in the service mode
The Service Tool is a utility used to reset the printer. In order for the printer to be reset, it must be in Service Mode state. Here's how to enter Service Mode.

1.  The power cable is connected, the USB cable is connected to the printer and PC/Laptop, and the printer is off.
2.  Press and hold the Stop/Reset/Resume/Cancel button (adjust your printer, what buttons are available)
3.  Press and hold the Start/Power/On/Off button (customize your printer, what buttons are available).
4.  Release the Stop/Reset/Resume/Cancel button. For the Start/Power/On/Off button still on hold (don't release)
5.  Press the Stop/Reset/Resume/Cancel button x times, then release the Start/Power/On/Off button (read; How to do step 5.After the printer is in Service Mode, open the Canon Service Tool.

How to do step 5
Example: the printer being repaired is Canon MG4200, and the x value is 5 times. So the way to do step 5 is as follows.

5.  While holding down the Start/Power/On/Off button, Press the Stop/Reset/Resume/Cancel button 4 times, then press and hold the Stop/Reset/Resume/Cancel button 1 time, then release the two buttons simultaneously (Stop/Reset/Resume/Cancel, and Start/Power/On/Off)


The value of x, adjusts the type of printer that is fixed. For Canon printers in general x values ​​are 2 or 5. But there are also x values ​​that are 3 times, such as: iP90, i70, i80. For the value x = 6 times, it is used to disable error detection on the scanner and start the machine in service mode.
Example: on the Canon MG4200, the value of x is 5 times. To disable error detection on the scanner, the x value is 6 times.

Resetting the printer with Service Tool v.3400

6.  Download Service Tool v.3400
7.  Extract file then open Service Tool.
8.  Load paper A4 or Letter (3 sheets)
9.  For your reference in servicing, click EEPROM (1) information print before resetting.


Please observe the print out EEPROM data. For your information, here are three examples of EEPROM data printouts and how to read them.
How to read EEPROM Information Print out

Sample 1
Canon MG3100
D (BK=006.8 CL=004.3)   Dp (AW=090.9 HM=000.4)
DF (BK=00932 CL=00957   AW=00091 HM=67292)

D = Main ink absorber
Dp = Platen ink absorber
DF = Ink absorber life

D_BK = Main_Black
D_CL = Main_Color
Dp_AW = Platen_Away
Dp_HM = Platen_Home
DF_BK= ink absorber life (Black)
DF_CL = ink absorber life (Color)
DF_AW = ink absorber life (Platen Away)
DF_HM = ink absorber life (Platen Home)
Clear Ink Counter

See the picture above "Clear Ink Counter" in Service Tool v.3400
-  If the value of D_BK / D_CL / Dp_AW / Dp_HM = 100% or 100.0 or close to 100%, then the value must be reset.
Main = reset D_BK and D_CL at once.
Platen = reset Dp_AW and Dp_HM at once.
Main_Black = reset D_BK
Main_Color = reset D_CL
Platen_Away = reset Dp_AW
Platen_Home = reset Dp_HM
All = reset all (D_BK, D_CL, Dp_AW, Dp_HM)


Sample 2
Canon MX880
D=003.7

Conclusion:
-  If the EEPROM data prints out only the D value appears, it means that the printer only resets the Main value.
-  If the value of D = 100% or 100.0 then the value of D (Main) must be reset to zero.


Sample 3
Canon MPXXX
D=004.5 - "D" (Main ink absorber)
Ds=0.002 - "Ds" (Platen ink absorber)

Conclusion
-  If the value of D=100.0 then the value of D (Main) must be reset to zero. Clear Ink Counter - Absorber - Main - Set
-  If the value of Ds=100.0 then the value of Ds (Platen) must be reset to zero. Clear Ink Counter - Absorber - Platen - Set
-  If the values ​​are D=100.0 and Ds=100.0 then both must be reset to zero. Clear Ink Counter - Absorber - All - Set


10.  Clear Ink Counter, select MAIN (2), and then click SET (3). After the ink absorber counter is reset, the counter value is printed automatically.
11.  Click EEPROM (1) information print once again after resetting.
12.  Compare EEPROM information before and after reset. If all goes well close the Service Tool then turn off the printer.
13.  Turn on printer and printer ready to use

  9. Dear easyFIXS

    I remember when in service menu, I click reset ink values, just for fun, I wanted to see what happens. I did this before attempt ink Pad reset!
    anyways, it take long, and the service tool become Not responding, so I turn the printer off and the printer no longer enters service menu

    I can get only into PRINT HEAD REMOVE Mode (Power + Pause/Stop x 4 times)
    printer appears to bypass ink full message error, but cannot print, cannot connect to wifi, like printer is become stupid and not listen to command.

    can you advise of any way to solve this?

    Also Can you verify version 3400 is correct for MG-5765?

  17. For Canon MP287.service tool v3400 worked for me.
    Before:D=100.6
    DF=69351
    TPAGE(TTL=05486 COPY=00674)
    After: D=000.0
    DF=01000
    TPAGE(TTL=05486 COPY=00674)
    1.For "AFTER" ..DF=1000<---Does this value means the Ink absorber life is 1000 months?
    2.FOR TPAGE both(in before & after resetting) TTL & COPY share the same value.Should it be something of a concern that TPAGE(TTL & COPY) didn't reset to 0?
    Sir,please can you advise me on these.

    1. D = ink absorber counter
      DF = ink absorber life
      ST = installation date
      TPAGE = total pages fed

      How to reset Canon MP287 Ink absorber full error with ST.3400.
      Clear Ink Counter, Absorber "Main", click "Set".

      So what you do is reset the value of D, from D=100.6 to D=000.0. Clear Ink Counter - Main - Set, is only resetting the value of D to zero, and does not include resetting the value of DF and TPAGE.

      So why, when the value of D is reset to zero, does the value of DF change too?
      DF (ink absorber life) is an approximate value calculated based on the user's machine usage.
      ST (installation date) is the date when you purchase the new MP287, and for the first time it is connected to a computer, to be installed. For example: ST=2010/04/09-10:26.

      Initial DF value, typically 48 months or more (varies by printer).
      If ST=2010/04/09-10:26, then the ink absorber's life will end on 2014/04/09-10:26. So the value of DF (48 months) will be counted down, and ends on 2014/04/09-10:26.

      If before the date of 2014/04/09-10:26 the value of D=100.0 (ink absorber full), then the ink absorber is replaced by considering the value of D=100.0.

      If on 2014/04/09-10:26 the D value is less than 100, then the ink absorber is replaced with the consideration that the value of DF (ink absorbent life) has expired.

      DF value after 2014/04/09-10:26 will be wrong, for example in your case DF=69351 (in January 2021). If this happens then you can ignore it.

      When referring to the value of DF, it means that the useful life of the printer is 48 months and ends on 2014/04/09-10:26.

      Because now is January 2021, and the printer can still be used normally, it is impossible for users to throw away the printer because the printer's built-in ink absorber, has expired its life. Therefore, you can ignore it, even if the DF value reads incorrectly.

      If the ink absorber is replaced with a new one, why when resetting the DF value does not return to 48 months?
      Unfortunately the Service Tool only provides facilities to reset the value of D, while resetting the value of DF, TPAGE (TTL and COPY), resetting ink levels, etc., is not provided by the Service Tool.

      Conclusion
      After you run the command: Clear Ink Counter, Absorber "Main", click "Set", which changes to zero only the value of D, while DF=01000 (reads wrong), and TPAGE (continues the calculation of the number of pages).

    2. From your reply i understand there is need to ignore the DF reading & treat Ink absorber life as lasting for 48 months(which i assume for my model since service manual states replace ink absorber if DF value is less than 24) from the day I replaced/cleaned/modify the ink absorber.Also TPAGE will continue.
      Once again thanks Sir for help in getting my printer to function properly again.

    3. Hello,
      Ref: "DF=1000<---Does this value means the Ink absorber life is 1000 months?"
      When I experimented with resetting and using a few times, it means that you get 1000 more prints before it locks you out again (probably best for most of us to clean or replace the ink absorber pads next time round!) It seems to base service times on 250 prints a year x 4yrs as an average...

  18. I used this tool to reset my MP237 before. Now I'm interested in resetting the printer to think my refilled cartridges are new, full and original. I understand the printer remembers 5 previous cartridges to have been emptied. On the 6th try the last cartridge will be treated as new with all indications of being full. But I don't have 6 empty cartridges to do this trick. Is there a way to do it from this tool?

    1. The Service Tool cannot be used to reset the ink level for refilled cartridges.

  21. I´ve got an used Canon Pixma Pro 100s and it won´t work with USB connected. The problem is, that there is a paper jam error with flashing orange LED times). I can´t connect with network LAN or WLAN and the steps to go in service mode will end with a orange LED full lighting. I tried several options from cleaning the rollers inside with air and alcohol. Place new tints, refresh the drivers on win10 - nothing is working. So I try to flash with new firmware, but this won´t work. Than at least I tried the Service tool v3400 with the 5 times stop/resume button, but I can´t activate the service mode. Any ideas without send it to service, because service cost more than the printer costs me.

  22. I have tried this tool on my IP7260 and have followed the steps. Strangely, no matter what button I click, it always gives me 'erro 006'. I just couldn't do anything. Has it got anything to do with region(i am in Australia), or operation system (windows 10, 64bit)? or anything else? Please Help. Oliver

    1. Hola
      - Ingrese a la impresora en modo de servicio y luego abra ST v.3400
      - Cargue papel y luego imprima la EEPROM, luego observe cómo se imprime la EEPROM.

      El significado del código de letra en la impresión de EEPROM
      D = Main = reset Main ink absorber counter
      Dp / Ds = Platen = reset Platen ink absorber counter
      D BK = Main black = reset Main Black ink absorber counter
      D CL = Main color = reset Main Color ink absorber counter
      Dp AW = Platen away = reset Platen Away ink absorber counter
      Dp HM = Platen home = reset Platen Home ink absorber counter

      Vea la impresión de la EEPROM Canon MX410:
      - Si hay un valor D en la impresión, reinicie Main.
      - Si la impresión contiene valores D y Dp, reinicie Main y Platen.
      - Si la impresión contiene un valor de D (BK y CL), Dp (AW y HM), luego reinicie "Main black, Main color, Platen away, Platen Home".

      Error code: 001
      Este error ocurre porque la EEPROM para Canon MX410, solo tiene un valor D (Main ink absorber counter). Cuando se realizan otros reinicios como: reset Platen, reset Main black, reset Main color, reset Platen away, reset Platen home, la EEPROM lo rechazará y aparecerá un código de error: 001

      Entonces, antes de reiniciar, primero imprima la EEPROM. Si la EEPROM solo tiene un valor D, entonces haga un restablecimiento Main, para otros restablecimientos no es necesario. Si la EEPROM tiene valores D y Dp, reinicie Main y Platen. Si la EEPROM tiene un valor de D BK, D CL, Dp AW, Dp HM, luego reinicie Main black, Main color, Platen away, Platen home
