Refilling the ink in your Canon G7020 printer involves a few key steps, starting with preparing the printer and the new ink bottle. Following the correct procedure ensures a mess-free and efficient refill.
Based on the initial steps provided by Canon, here's how you begin the process:
Getting Started with Ink Refilling
Before you start adding ink, you need to prepare your printer and the new ink bottles.
- Ensure Power is On: Make sure your Canon G7020 printer is turned on.
- Open Covers: Open the scanning unit / cover (B) of the printer.
- Access Ink Tanks: Next, open the ink tank cover to reveal the ink tanks inside.
- Prepare the Tank: Open the tank cap (E) of the specific ink tank you intend to refill. Identify the correct color tank you need to add ink to.
- Unpack New Ink: Take a new ink bottle out of its package.
- Remove Bottle Cap: Hold the ink bottle upright and gently twist the bottle cap (F) to remove it, preparing the bottle for insertion into the tank spout.
These steps are the critical first stages in the ink refilling process for your Canon G7020 printer. The design of the Canon G7020 and its ink bottles (often featuring a key-type nozzle) helps prevent incorrect color insertion and makes the process relatively clean. After these steps, you would typically insert the bottle into the tank spout and let the ink flow into the tank.
Always refer to the full official instructions for the complete refilling process, which covers inserting the bottle, allowing ink to drain, and closing the covers properly.
