Canon Service Mode Tool Version 1.050 -

The WIC Reset Utility is widely considered the safer, supported alternative to version 1.050—it includes backups and model-specific checks.

A significant limitation of Version 1.050 is its inability to interface with newer Canon printers. Starting around 2015-2016, Canon modified the USB identification protocol used in service mode. When newer models enter service mode, they present a different USB Device ID to the computer. Version 1.050 is hardcoded to recognize older IDs and will not detect these newer printers, necessitating the use of newer versions (e.g., v3400 or v3600). Canon service mode tool version 1.050
