Absolutely TERRIBLE customer support; NO customer "concern"!<BR />By probing the ink tank, I determined that an opening to bottom of tank was @ 'nearest left corner' (from front of printer) of tank (i.e., not straight in).<BR />Purchased Amazon 6 Pcs Blunt Tip Dispensing Needle 14 Gauge x 5" with 3 Pcs 30ml Disposable Syringe (total $9). Worked perfectly; extracted 50ml+ of ink easily.<BR />Ran some 'Deep Cleaning'; printed several pages of solid yellow file; refilled yellow tank after it ran dry; everything appears to be fine!</P> Tue, 21 May 2024 13:42:51 GMT cedarspring 2024-05-21T13:42:51Z https://community.usa.canon.com/t5/Desktop-Inkjet-Printers/PIXMA-G4210-Draining-Ink-Tank-Erroneously-Filled/m-p/478397#M71638 <P>PIXMA G4210 experience, 5 year old model — My wife was struck with unexplained "brain cramp'; incorrectly filled <U>Yellow Tank</U> with <U>Magenta ink</U>; she fortunately realized error before printing anew!?<BR />Canon Support (ALL CANON PHONE NUMBERS) was rude, non-existent, refused to talk with me (at ANY price); insisted that product was "not registered', although the product clearly shows it IS properly registered in my online account!?
