Chapter 9 Maintaining the MultiPASS C3000 9-9
Using Ink
Canon has more engineers dedicated to creating quality ink for
providing the best results for output on Bubble Jet printers than any
other organization. Canon does not prohibit the use of third-party
inks and the use of third-party inks does not invalidate the product’s
limited warranty. However, Canon cannot guarantee the quality or
performance of your printer when you are using inks from other
suppliers.
Canon’s limited warranty does not cover damage caused to Canon’s
Bubble Jet products that is attributable to the use of third party parts or
supplies, including inks. The limited warranty remains in effect for its
life once that particular damage has been properly repaired.

❍ For optimum printing results, Canon recommends that you use
only the Canon BC-21 Color BJ Cartridge or the optional Canon
BC-20 Black, BC-22 Photo, and BC-29F Neon BJ Cartridges with
your MultiPASS C3000.
❍ When replacing BJ tanks in the BC-21 Color BJ Cartridge, Canon
recommends that you use only Canon BCI-21 Color and BCI-21
Black BJ Tanks.
Replacing the BJ Cartridge
The actual amount of ink that you use will vary depending on the print
density of a page. If the majority of your output is graphics, you may
need to change cartridges or tanks more often than when you are
printing text only. See Appendix A, Specifications , for details on the life
expectancy of the BJ cartridges.
You may need to replace the BJ cartridge or a BJ tank when any of the
following conditions exist:
❍ You have been using the cartridge for over one year.
❍ Your printed output is not crisp and clear, and there are gaps in the
characters (missing dots) even after you have cleaned the print head
at least five times.
