Design

The beautiful portable designed Canon PIXMA G6050 printer features bulky plastic ink cartridges because there’s room inside for a fairly deep 250-sheet main paper tray and another 100 sheets in the rear tray.

Side view

The body build allows you to see the ink levels so as to monitor the performance of your printer. However, the tanks are quite large, so you won’t be refilling very often. Same goes to the paper house which comes with a window, thus enhancing you to see your paper level.

The new G series has only a two-line mono LCD in its tilting control panel. It lacks SD Card slot as well as front USB port  probably for the purpose of creating more room for  the ink tanks. However, the USB and Ethernet ports are located at the rear.

The PIXMA G6050 comes with a A4 sized scanner which is located at the top of the printer.

How to Refill Canon PIXMA G6050 Ink Tank 

Ink

Refilling of the Canon PIXMA G6050 ink tank is quite easy all thanks to the way the printer is built. The three fine inkjet cartridges carts do not have to be replaced, but can be refill.

After opening the cartridge lid can then pour in the ink from the the bottles provided. The nozzles are the same shape as the cartridge mouth. It is shaped so that you can fill each tank to the top without spilling a drop.

The tanks are stoppered with a rubber seal, although we wouldn’t advise storing this thing on its side if you have to put it back inside the box with ink in the tanks.

Note that it is possible to pour the wrong colour into the wrong tank, so do be careful.
