A question about how canon printers handle the borderless settings in terms of counters, based on your experience.
If I select borderless generally the extra ink is absorbed by the absorbtion pads.
Given that it means that a printer will be able to do a certain number of prints until the pads will be full.
1) What will happen next? The printer show a generic B200 error asking to be serviced?
2) There's a counter like the waste ink for that? Do the print content matter? For example a full black page will increment the counter more fastly than a grey one compared to a white page that is supposed to don't increment this value at all? or it's just an integer counter that each time you pick borderless will increment of one unit so that if you print 5000 white borderless sheets will be maxed out?
Do the borderless option contribute to the main waste counter instead?
Playing with the canon service tools utilities did you discovered anything interesting on this matter?
Thanks for the replies
