Hi,
My son recently got me a new G3010 printer 2 months back along with a set of 2black and 6 colour (2x yellow, magenta, blue). The printer is running fine but there are some air bubbles in the black tank.
I asked the person who installed it but he was not sure about it so I am here for help.
There are some minute air bubbles along with some larger ones.
Will these cause any issues in printing like they get in the pipes (the person who installed it said it's issue in some Canon models)?

I have uploaded some pictures but they maybe blurry as my hands shake a bit with age now.

Thanks a lot,
The Old Man

There was another thread running just recently with a similar subject

https://www.printerknowledge.com/th...otorious-air-in-tube-issue.15342/#post-134027



Where are the bubbles exactly - in the tank or in the tubing ?


I would not do much at this time in your case except

- monitoring the print quality

- checking if the bubbles grow and/or move in the tube and if you get more bubbles over time
Only the tank has some bubbles that came when the installation person was pouring the ink from the bottle. Apart from that everything else is fine.

Thanks for the reply btw

I think there is nothing to be concerned about at this time, just keep an eye on it.
