The Canon PIXMA TS8020 is a PIXMA TS-series all-in-one (print, scan, copy). This model carries the sixth Gray slot, so its cartridge list includes the Gray tank that smooths black-and-white photo tones. 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 TS8020 typically belongs to the household member who cares how a black-and-white print actually looks, Gray tank and all. For that owner, the habits are simple. Fit each cartridge — every one with a new compatible chip, so levels report back reliably — and let pigment black serve documents while the dye tanks serve color and photographs. When a new tank is not recognized, reseat it until it clicks and restart the printer; if the message persists, wipe the gold chip contacts using a dry, lint-free cloth. Store spares sealed and upright until their turn comes.
