Okay, so another query. Can I keep using this print head if it works? I had flushed out all the possible water residue after cleaning by using air in syringe and only foamy ink came out at that time. Will there be any side-effects of manual flushing like leaking from the ink input ports or print...

All original inks. Third party here costs nearly the same as original so no point in taking the risk.

Update: Managed to save the colour head by cleaning with a syringe, a lot of flushing with very slightly warm distilled water and a partial ink flush. The colours are back to normal suggesting that the head was clogged and not burnt and are looking fine to me now.

Yes, the previous one was an OEM packed unit (without the outer cardboard box) which I bought from Canon Service Center. The one I bought now is a retail unit directly sold and shipped by Amazon.

Last March I changed my G2010 Colour ink head as it decided to burn out it's magenta and yellow heads one fine day ( https://www.printerknowledge.com/threads/g2010-is-this-print-head-a-goner.16412/ ) Fast forward one and a half year and yesterday the printer again decided to but out the magenta...

I have a Canon G2010 Printer for home use. Recently I have been seeing that when I print I can hear the printer head hitting the paper, I inspected the paper and saw that it indeed was hitting the heads before it was being pulled by the paper extruder. I also confirmed it from the slight ink...

Well it would be a hassle to suck out all the ink bottle it and return it back 😂 Printer is still in warranty so I will just keep it as it is and if anything happens put it on Canon as it was the ink that was supplied with the printer.

I shook it vigorously for a minute or two but still it stuck to the bottle sides. Anyways as long as this is a known property of the genuine OEM ink the printer should not get damaged I hope.

Anyone?

I had received two bottles of GI-790 with my Canon Inktank printer G2010 as a promotional offer and after refilling my Inktank when it was nearly empty I am seeing that the ink is stuck to the bottle sides after I took off the wrapper. I shook the bottle and let the bubbles disperse before...

Canon replaced the CH-7 Head today and Colour print is back to the same quality as day 1. There is a slight colour tint but thats because of a different paper shade.

Looks like the old head got damaged by overheating. I had to shell out 14.99 for a new head which Canon Service Representative will install tomorrow. I hope this lasts longer. Btw what did you mean by well past it's sell by date?

This is what my printer test print looks like now. A few weeks back the printer gave a P08/5200 error on my G2010 and yesterday both magenta and yellow stopped printing. I tried a Deep Clean and rested the printer overnight but it didn't solve the issue. P08 as per Google means head overheat...

I have a nearly two year old Canon G2010 and I am facing some issues with the magenta colour. One fine day while printing I see that the Magenta was not printing correctly and was kinda brownish hue. I checked my tanks and supply line and all were full. I did a deep clean and kept it aside for...

Whenever I do fast and large volume printing the ink smudges on backside (non-printing) of paper. This mostly happens when photocopying multiple copies of the same thing like say 10 copies of a business card. The paper I use is 70gsm paper from a known brand of paper manufacturer in India. I...
