Canon Pixma MP130/110?

There are two possible ways to remove the error from your printer. First is to actually clean the absorber pads that are full of waste ink. The second is to reset the printer to clear the error and let the printer print again.

Clean the two absorber pads. Its is actually two absorber pads located on the right side of the printer, under the ink cartridges when it is in home base position.
How to access the pads and remove it for cleaning?
Turn on the printer. Lift the top cover to expose the ink cartridges. As soon as you lift up the cover the cartridge carrier will move away from its home base.. Then the pads will be exposed. It will be a dirty job so be prepared with your tweezer and extra cloth for some ink spill. Using the tweezer, lift up the pads sitting on a rubber retainer. The pads can be easily clean by placing it under a running water. Warm water will be nice to remove the ink from the pads. After this, you can now return the pads. However, the problem will not be solve especially if you are currently facing the waste ink absorber full error or E-27.

Use a reset procedure to clear the error in your printer and start printing again
1. Turn on the printer
2. Press the MENU key
3. Press SCAN button
4. Press the COPY button
5. Press the SCAN button then wait until it enters the service mode.
6. Select NVRAM ACCESS further OK
7. Select SET ABS-M LEVEL and set value equal to zero
8. Select SET ABS-R LEVEL (if any) and is set to zero.
9. Turn off the printer
Do this as many times if the first attempt didn't work until it fully reset.
It worked first time for me!
I hope this helps
