How to Perform an Ink Flush on a Canon G Series Megatank Printer

[@monicagillam7203]

Thank you so much for these instructions. This was helpful to run this through the computer as I did not have to Flush all the lines, but only the color since my Black was not affected.

Thank you so much for uploading this video. This definitely helped when the deep cleaning didn't work.

Thank you for this video! I really don't understand why canon doesn't publicize this software by itself ... You probably solves my problem ;-) TNX!

Same here but black. Do you have any recommendation?

Is it possible to remove ink that's in the tanks? (Other than just printing a bunch lol). I'm trying to replace the black ink with stencil ink for tattooing. Thanks!

Yes, it can be done with patience but you will need a cartridge cradle that lets you syringe the ink out of the cartridge from the bottom, through the printhead. Then you refill the cartridge with your ink and again syringe the ink out of the cartridge through the print head. Refill with your ink again and you will be good to go, or as close as possible, good to go.

@@hobbyprint4976 oooh I wasn't sure if it had ink already in the print heads. In that case I'll just use the PIXMA mg2520 and get a refillable cartridge. Thank you!!

My Megatank printer is broken, the tanks are practically full of ink. I got a new one for Christmas. Is it possible to get the ink out of the old printer to put in the new, I really hate to waste all that ink. I don't think the Tanks are removable, but at this point even if I have to break the printer more to get the ink out, that's not a problem. Thanks

[@hobbyprint4976]

Yes, use a syringe with a long needle. The needle will easily pass through the top fitting and you can get the ink out in this way. We sell syringes and the long needles on hobbyprint.co.uk or you can message us at [e-mail]
