Ink absorber almost full on my PIXMA MX870
is there a user remedy for this? Have seen notes (for other models) showing a procedure to wash and clean filters.
is there a similar process for MX870 ?

As previously mentioned, it would be very helpful if you kept all of your questions about your MX870 in one topic. 😉

Hi emcee1164,
Thanks for letting us know what Canon product you've got. As we noted on your other post on the PIXMA MX870, it is an older model which we have retired. While that means that Canon USA no longer offers direct support for it, your friends here in the Canon Community are welcome to offer suggestions!
You can also speak with a Canon Upgrade Program specialist to help you score a modern replacement that would meet your current needs at a discount. You can reach them weekdays and Saturdays at 1-866-443-8002.
Hope this helps!
