I was desperate to get something printed and put canon ink into the tanks made for another type of canon printer. The colors are way off. How do I empty and clean the tanks??</P> Wed, 19 Oct 2022 16:58:39 GMT Lynlove 2022-10-19T16:58:39Z https://community.usa.canon.com/t5/Desktop-Inkjet-Printers/Wrong-ink-in-printer-g6020/m-p/390504#M59488 <P>Yah, I know.
