I own a Canon BJC-6000 and a Canon MPC-400. The problem is that after having used them for couple of years (only light home-user stuff like the occasional document or photo) they start to constantly fill the yellow ink tank with other ink (magenta mainly, whether that is of any significance) resulting in photos with a purple/pink tint (well when I say tint I mean it is so purple/pink that you cannot get any other colour, only shades of magenta.) The printers have never been damaged in any way and they have never been heavily used. I never buy cheap crappy ink tanks or those kits for refilling your tanks: I only buy the genuine Canon tanks. It does not take long for the yellow tank to fill and cleaning the print heads (using the utilily provided with the printers) does not help. I do not know if it is only the yellow tank that fills with magenta ink (because as you will know, cyan ink is quite dark when in a tank anyway). It can't just be my printers; what did/would you do about this?
