The Canon PIXMA TS6220 is a PIXMA TS-series all-in-one (print, scan, copy). Owners tend to keep these printers a long time, and the separate-tank layout is a big reason why — nothing is thrown away before its time. Every tank is individual, so each color is replaced on its own schedule and genuine Canon and compatible tanks can be mixed slot by slot.

Chip, ink and everyday use

A TS6220 tends to live a double life in a family home, printing homework one evening and photos the next. Owners can keep that rhythm simple by treating each slot separately. All of the cartridges carry a new compatible chip, so levels keep reporting to the printer. Pigment black looks after text, while the dye tanks look after color and pictures. If a cartridge is not recognized, reseat it until it clicks and restart; if a message persists, wipe its gold chip contacts with a dry, lint-free cloth. Spares stay sealed and upright until install day.
