How to Change the Ink Cartridge on a Canon G3
Canon Super G3-enabled printers and faxes deliver impressive speed and performance. The main feature is their ability to process fax transmissions at up to G3 fax speeds. This allows for faster receipt of important documents. These advanced features are very useful in the office or home. However, the machine still requires ink changes like every other. To keep those faxes coming in at blazing speeds, replace the ink as soon as your ink level indicator gives you a warning that your ink is running low.
