The user [you] does not remove the ink absorber. You're signalled when the ink absorber becomes nearly full. Although you can continue printing upon pushing the stop/reset button, you will need to submit the printer to professional servicing. For details see http://kbsupport.cusa.canon.com/system/selfservice.controller?CONFIGURATION=1011&PARTITION_ID=1&secureFlag=false&TIMEZONE_OFFSET=&CMD=VIEW_ARTICLE&ARTICLE_ID=4068.
