Canon TR4570 Resetter: Clear Waste Ink Counter

Quick diagnosis
Canon TR4570 reset in three controlled stages
Enter service mode
Use the 5-press sequence shown below and wait for Windows to detect the printer.
Reset and restart
Run WIC Reset Connect, keep USB stable, then switch the printer off for at least 10 seconds before normal startup.
Before using a key: the printer must have no pending jobs or unrelated errors. Use one direct USB connection and leave only the target Canon TR4570 connected.
Understand the warning
Why Canon TR4570 shows errors 5B00–5B04 or 1700
The Canon TR-series home-office printer estimates how much waste ink has been collected during cleaning and maintenance. When the programmed limit is reached, the printer may display 1700 as an advance warning or stop with 5B00 and a waste ink absorber message. The reset clears that electronic counter; it does not fix an unrelated print-head, cartridge or power fault.
For this Canon model, WIC Reset Connect performs the counter operation after service mode is accepted. Do not enter the Connect key into WIC Reset Utility. Disconnect other Epson and Canon equipment, keep only the TR4570 attached and wait for a clear success message before restarting.
Official developer
Use the official WIC Reset Connect download and a key intended for this workflow, with technical support available if the program returns an error.
Reset guarantee
Keep the program message and order details if a valid attempt fails. A failed attempt can be reviewed instead of repeating random steps.
No pre-use expiry
An unused activation key does not expire. One key is consumed by one completed reset on one supported printer.
Resettable Canon absorber codes: on supported models, WIC Reset Connect can clear the waste ink counter behind Canon support codes 5B00, 5B01, 5B02, 5B03 and 5B04. The exact code displayed depends on the printer and region.
Physical maintenance still matters: software resets the electronic counter only. If ink is leaking or the absorber/pads are saturated, clean or replace the maintenance components before continued printing.
Step-by-step procedure
How to put Canon TR4570 into service mode
Read the complete sequence before touching the buttons. The correct count and button type are model-dependent, so the instructions below are tied to the Canon TR4570.
Power off and connect USB
Turn off the Canon TR4570, leave power connected, clear pending jobs and use a direct USB data cable to the Windows computer.
Hold STOP/RESET
Press and hold the STOP/RESET button. Depending on the control panel, it may show a triangle inside a circle.
Hold POWER
While STOP/RESET remains held, press and hold POWER. Wait a moment, then release STOP/RESET while continuing to hold POWER.
Press STOP/RESET 5 times
With POWER still held, press and release STOP/RESET exactly 5 times. Count deliberately; using a sequence from another Canon model can prevent service mode.
Release POWER and wait
After the final press, wait briefly and release POWER. Do not start the reset until the printer settles and Windows detects the service-mode device.
Use the complete Canon reset manual and the Canon service-mode reference.
Requirements and common mistakes
Prepare the Canon TR4570 before activation
Required setup
- Windows 7, 8, 10 or 11 computer.
- Direct USB data cable connected without a hub or splitter.
- Only the target Canon TR4570 connected; remove other Epson or Canon equipment.
- No pending print documents and no unrelated printer error.
- Stable power for the complete reset and restart.
- Correct model-specific service mode before opening Connect.
Avoid these failed attempts
- Do not use Wi-Fi or a network-only connection.
- Do not enter a Connect key into WIC Reset Utility.
- Do not disconnect USB or power while the program is writing.
- Do not confuse a waste ink warning with a print-head or cartridge failure.
- Do not repeat head cleaning unnecessarily after the reset.
- Save the complete message or log before asking for support.
You can also open the video instruction library or verify another model in the supported printer finder.
Troubleshooting
If the Canon TR4570 reset does not start
Printer is not detected
Change to a direct motherboard USB port, remove hubs, try another data-capable cable and disconnect other Canon or Epson devices. Restart Windows if the maintenance device was not installed correctly.
The printer still shows another error
Write down the exact code and check cartridges, paper path and power status. WIC Reset Connect cannot bypass an unrelated fault that prevents the printer from reaching the required maintenance state.
The connection stopped during reset
Do not repeatedly reuse random software or button combinations. Save the log, screenshot and key details. If a valid attempt was interrupted, use the replacement-key request or contact support.
Warning returns after restart
Confirm that the program reported success and that the printer was switched off for about 10 seconds. Check the exact counter or error again rather than assuming every service message is the waste ink counter.
