The GX6021 I bought a couple years ago stopped printing all colors. It would only print black. So frustrating because I paid so much for the dumb thing. Rather than buy another $600 printer, I thought this cleaning kit was worth a try. The cleaning seemed to go as planned but when I tried to do the ink flush, I got an error code that said I needed to replace the maintenance cartridge. It would only print black and magenta. So I ordered a knock off $14 maintenance cartridge from Amazon (Aomya MC-G01 Maintenance Cartridge) figuring I'm in this deep so might as well try this too. Replacing that part was super easy. Just tried the ink flush again and it did not give an error message. Printed a nozzle check (expecting the worst) and it WORKED! I'm so relieved. Many thanks to The Printer Guy- not only for selling your cleaning kits but also for your videos. Very helpful. You ROCK!

I used this instruction for Canon Maxify GX6021 that I just purchased. I have not used for a few months,the printer stops printing color. I thought I wasted $500 on this piece of junk machine. Just completed the cleaning with the product was recommended,thankfully this clear instruction helps me a lot. Now,waiting for 24 hours as recommended to reinstall the printhead. Let ‘s if this video save me.

any good news mate? facing the same problem right now, just waiting for my tools to arrive

[@bill66066]

Thanks I fixed my issue! I had tried using cheaper ink & after 3 bottles ended up with banding that clean deep clean ink flush wouldn't solve. Didn't have the kit you used but wanted to visually inspect the print head so found your video to see how it was done without breaking anything. It was VERY gooey and just wiping it off good solved my issue without even doing the flush step in my case. It saved me because I had wasted over a bottle of black ink & a maintenance cartridge doing flushes & maintenance cleanings trying to solve it.

I love the fact that Canon made the print head and the ink absorber box user accessible for easy cleaning or replacement. I'm deciding between this model and the Brother MFC L3750CDW

[@jeffreyaal6789]

This worked great! I bought the kit, followed the directions, and salvaged out my printer! Thank you. 🙂

[@BestPrinters]

Awesome! The b.p kit really is a life saver , geni.us/wArXsZT

[@jolson5448]

Thank you! I couldn't figure out how to remove and physically clean my print head without the printer rejecting the printhead after removal. This did the trick and now its printing color again.

[@trevorhewick8910]

Thank you so much; this worked and Amazon got your product to me the next day; Ink Rush did not use much ink on my Canon Maxify GX7020; well done because I love this printer.

[@BestPrinters]

I am glad to hear it!

[@danielamairena5739]

Thank you so much for this video. It saved me from buying and having to wait for a new printhead that's on backorder.

[@BestPrinters]

Happy to help!

[@konaing4208]

How about ink clogged in the flexible ink lines?

[@jstuelke]

I have cleaned it out twice, there is no liquid in it and it still shows full when I try and do an ink flush, any ideas?

[@PcOnController]

Isnt better to do the ink flush while you have the solution wet inside the head than wait for it to dry?

[@BestPrinters]

No, because you would risk damaging the machine in the process

[@Zawjawear]

Do you have a video to show the steps for the ink flush? I just added brand-new ink and the tanks are full of ink will I loose all of this ink? Please help @theprinterguy

[@tonathiu450]

Good afternoon, what went wrong? Since I have it, the head is no longer recognized, help

[@BestPrinters]

You must allow a 24 hr drying period before putting it back.

[@bdh503]

[@michaelritchie8891]

How about the cleaning fluid in the printhead???

[@BestPrinters]

It will be pushed out once the new ink is charged.

[@veer62200]

I have canon maxify gx 6070 this ik is GI 76bk what I use gi73bk instead gi76 bk

[@BestPrinters]

[@PepeHernández-k4m]

Can you inject ink with a syringe ? Ink flush wastes to much

[@brandokally1]

What is the cleaning solution? Alcohol based or silicone based?

[@DJAlexSalsa]

[@adarshbanand]

Run a deep cleaning that should push Cyan into the printhead.

[@Nowcix]

[@ProfessorAF]

Thanks

[@BestPrinters]

You're very welcome!

[@ot5151]

Thanks for the help!

[@BestPrinters]

You bet!

[@BenHTube]

You linked to GI-20 bottles which are for PIXMA G7020 printers. The Maxify GX takes GI-26 bottles. This is a pretty glaring mistake.

[@christywheeler7075]

Agreed! Ordered it and didn't read the description so now I have to send the ink back and wait two more days to get ink. The video was very helpful during this process. Thank you for making it. Please fix the link to the ink.

I have an eclectic assortment of videos on KZbin, so I know how much time goes into making these instructional videos (kzbin.info/door/jI-kW9pV1g2DrsPr-oUs2g). I followed your instructions to the tee and now my printer is working like new. Thanks for taking the time and trouble. I posted mine several years ago and I still get comments and subscribers. I am sure you experience the same.
