Replace ink tank(s) MG5120 in Canon Printer

When you need to replace ink tanks, follow the procedure below.

important:

If you remove an ink tank, replace it immediately. Do not leave the machine with ink tanks removed.

Use new ink tanks for replacement. Installing used ink tanks may cause the nozzles to clog. Furthermore, with such ink tanks, the machine will not be able to inform you when to replace the ink tanks properly.

Once an ink tank has been installed, do not remove it from the machine and leave it out in the open. This will cause the ink tank to dry out, and the machine may not operate properly when it is reinstalled. To maintain optimal printing quality, use an ink tank within six months of first use.

note:

Color ink may be consumed even when printing a black-and-white document or when black-and-white printing is specified.

Every ink is also consumed in the standard cleaning and deep cleaning of the Print Head, which may be necessary to maintain the machine's performance. When an ink tank is out of ink, replace it immediately with a new one.

Make sure that the power is turned on, and open the Paper Output Tray gently.

Lift the Scanning Unit (Cover) until it stops.

The Print Head Holder moves to the replacement position.

attention:

Do not hold the Print Head Holder to stop or move it forcibly. Do not touch the Print Head Holder until it stops completely.

important:

Do not place any object on the Document Cover. It will fall into the Rear Tray when the Document Cover is opened and cause the machine to malfunction.

Be sure to lift the Scanning Unit (Cover) with the Document Cover closed.

Do not touch the metallic parts or other parts inside the machine.

If the Scanning Unit (Cover) is left open for more than 10 minutes, the Print Head Holder moves to the right. In this case, close and reopen the Scanning Unit (Cover).

Remove the ink tank with the lamp flashing fast.

Push the tab (A) and lift the ink tank to remove.

Do not touch thePrint Head Lock Lever (B).

important:

Handle the ink tank carefully to avoid staining of clothing or the surrounding area.

Discard the empty ink tank according to the local laws and regulations regarding disposal of consumables.

Do not remove two or more ink tanks at the same time. Be sure to replace ink tanks one by one when replacing two or more ink tanks.
