Useful Information about Ink

How is ink used for various purposes other than printing?

Ink may be used for purposes other than printing.

When you use the Canon printer for the first time after you install the bundled ink tanks, the printer

consumes a small amount of ink in the amount to enable printing by filling the nozzles of the Print Head

with ink.

The printing costs described in the brochures or websites are based on the consumption data from not the

first ink tank /ink cartridge but the succeeding ink tank /ink cartridge.

Ink is sometimes used to maintain the optimal printing quality.

To keep printer's performance, Canon printer performs cleaning automatically according to its condition.

When the printer performs cleaning, a small amount of ink is consumed. In this case, all colors of ink may

be consumed.

[Cleaning function]

The cleaning function helps the printer to suck air bubbles or ink itself from the nozzle and thus prevents

print quality degradation or nozzle clogging.

Does black-and-white printing use color ink?

Black-and-white printing may use ink other than black ink depending on the type of printing paper or the

settings of the printer driver. So, color ink is consumed even when printing in black-and-white.

Note

• The printer uses pigment ink. Due to the nature of the pigment ink, the ink on the printed surface may

be removed when being rubbed or scratched.
