Canon PRO-1 Ink Absorber

[The Hat]

The Hat has already figured this out. Can you share the instructions please?
Many thanks in advance for your help.

I can indeed, just as long as you haven’t broken any of the rules regarding wiring you should be all right..

Hello @The Hat ,
thanks again for your help.
Please see the attached photo, can you clarify - the hose should be pulled to the left, correct?
I've thought about what is happening and it seems if the hose is pulled out to the left, then it can be fed into the drilled hole ...
Not sure if I'm not following something.

Hopefully you can remember, it's been ages since your original post!!

No the hose has to be pulled from the right side not the left..
Like this, pull the hose off the white nipple as shown in (Photo 1)..

Then pull this hose back to the white plastic holder shown in (Photo 4), the hose will now be long enough to pass through your drill hole in the bottom of the case..

Hello @The Hat ,
Many thanks again for your help. Sorry I haven't posted sooner. I was able to complete the job with the hose, etc. with the instructions you provided.

Unfortunately, I had already disconnected several bits inside the printer, and now I think the chips are fried as I have a dreaded Alarm and Power LEDs flashing on and off in a repeating loop.

Really appreciate your help anyway!
Cheers

Count how many times the LED flashes before repeating, that will tell you what wrong..

they keep repeating on/off - continuous loop ...

they keep repeating on/off - continuous loop ...

Yes I know that, but if you watch them carefully you see they do pause for a second..
That’s the idea behind them..
