Replacing an Ink Tank
Important

Handling Ink

To maintain optimal printing quality, we recommend the use of specified Canon
genuine ink tank.
Refilling ink is not recommended.
Once you remove an ink tank, replace it immediately. Do not leave the printer
with an ink tank removed.
Replace an empty tank with a new one. Inserting a partially used ink tank may
cause the nozzles to clog. Furthermore, with such a tank, the printer will not be
able to inform you when to replace the tank properly.
Once an ink tank has been installed, do not remove it from the printer and
leave it out in the open.
This will cause the ink tank to dry out, and the printer may not operate properly
when it is reinstalled. To maintain optimal printing quality, use an ink tank within
six months of first use.
Color ink is consumed in Print Head Cleaning and Print Head Deep Cleaning,
which may be necessary to maintain the printer's performance. When an ink
tank is out of ink, replace it immediately with a new one.
