Canon Pixma iP6000 Installation Instructions
Installation Procedure
Canon Pixma iP6000 with MIS CFS Installed
Prerequisite -
Before starting this installation, you MUST test your printer to make sure it is printing 100
correctly. The best way to do this is to first print a Nozzle pattern, using the printer utility
software provided by Canon. Once a perfect nozzle pattern is achieved, print 5 copies of the
MIS
purge6.tif
image using the Plain Paper and Standard Quality settings on the printer. All 5
pages must print without banding or skipping (white spaces). If your printer can not do this, do
not install the CFS. Run some cleaning cycles or get new cartridges. Do not proceed until you
can pass these tests. The Purge6 image can be found on the diskette included with your
system. If you have a Mac you can download it from our website. You can also get it from the
Helpdesk Download Library.

MIS iP6000 PIXMA Installation Instructions
Orange Cartridge Caps
White Tube Plugs
Vacuum Pump Kit and Instructions
1.
If you purchased your system pre-filled, go to Step 2, else continue with Step 1.
Remove the caps from the ink bottles and replace them with the caps from the package
supplied with your CFS system.
The vacuum pump must be assembled as shown in the below photo. Check valve direction is critical.

CARTRIDGE FILL PROCEDURE-
Before filling: If the orange caps are not installed on the cartridges, install the orange
caps that originally came with the CFS over the cartridge ink supply ports.
•
Make sure not to twist the tubing between the color cartridges and the clip on the black
cartridge as this will cause issues with filling and installation.

•
Attach the tube from the chamber that is going to be filled to the tube adapter on the
vacuum pump.
•
Pull back on the plunger, all the way. It takes a fair amount of force.
•
Push the plunger back down to the bottom to expel air.
•
Pull back on the plunger again, all the way and push down to expel air.
•
After 3 or 4 pulls, the plunger should snap to the bottom if let go.
•
Let the vacuum pump rest for about on minute. This is a leak test.
•
After one minute, pull back on the plunger and let go. It should snap to the bottom on its
own.
•
If it does not go all the way down, then there may be a leak in one of the check valves or
the CFS cart. Do not proceed until you can pass the leak test.
•
Note, at no time does ink ever enter into the vacuum pump, only air.
With the vacuum pump fully pumped up and maximum vacuum achieved, do the following to
fill cartridge.
•
Grab the tube, about 1 inch up from the vacuum pump below the tube adapter fitting and
fold it in half or pinch it.
•
This traps the vacuum in the tube and CFS. Now remove the tube from the vacuum pump
without letting the tube unfold. Keep pinching the tube. This is important.
•
Plug the tube into the fitting on the top of the correct ink bottle for the position being
filled.
•
Release the fold in the. Ink should rush up the tube and into the cartridge.
•
The ink level in the bottle should go down about 1/2 inch or more depending on cartridge
size.
•
After about 30 seconds the cartridge will be full.
When the process is complete, fill the next chamber following the same procedure, but with a
different color. Needless to say, that if you put the wrong color ink in the wrong chamber you
will ruin the CFS cartridge, and they will need to be replaced.
After all chambers have been filled, let the cartridge sit on your bench, in its installed position,
for about 2 hours before installing into the printer. If you lose some of the ink from the lines
after they are filled, this is not a problem. As long as there is ink in the cartridge, the lines can
be full or empty, it does not matter.
When this is complete, go to Step 2.
2.
On the printer, with the power on, open the lid to move the cartridges to the Cartridge
Replacement position. While in this position, pull the power plug out of the wall and
disconnect the USB Cable. Next, remove the cartridges. The cartridges ride in a black
cartridge carriage and are secured by a gray clamp. The clamp does not have to be lifted for
removal of the cartridges, simply push in on each cartridge tab and remove them from the

printer.
Cartridge Carrier in Replacement Position
3.
Remove the orange caps and any other packaging material from the CFS cartridges. Save
these orange caps as they are not available for sale separate from a CFS unit. PARTIALLY
install the CFS cartridges by placing them in their installed position but do not push the
cartridges all the way down. Make sure that the tubing between the color cartridges and the
clip on the cyan cartridge is not twisted or pinched. Do not push the cartridges all the way
down. We do not want the seals on the bottom to be push up until the tubes have been
installed in the bottles. The tubing ends with the white plugs should be aligned to the left of
the printer.

CFS Partially Installed
Bridge Bracket and beige clip installation

Next, clean and dry the printer housing with alcohol where the bridge bracket is to be
installed. Locate the Bridge Bracket from your package and install it as shown in the photo.
Before peeling the protective film from the double sided tape strips on the bridge bracket,
place it in the location described below and as seen in the photo below. The Bridge Bracket
mounts on the left side of the printer in such a way that the 90 degree tab on the bottom of
the Bridge Bracket is flush with the left lip of the printer and behind the tab on the printer
housing. This area should have been cleaned with an alcohol pad. Now peel the protective film
from the double sided tape strips on the bracket. See the photos below.
4.
The tubing ends with the white plugs should now be on the left hand side of the printer. You
can now place the tubing into the beige clips on the bridge brackets, using the marks on the
tubing, and close them.
The tubes should be positioned in the right Bridge Bracket clip first. The tubing should be
marked where it will be placed in the clip. This position should allow enough length of tubing so
that the cartridge carriage can slide the full length of the printer from right to left and back
again without pulling the tubes and without being restricted by the tubes when they are
placed in the clip on the Bridge Bracket, and the tubes do not drag on the bottom of the
printer. Checking this process will be a bit difficult as the cartridges should not yet be fully
locked into the carriage.

5.
Once the tubes are securely inserted into the right clip on the Bridge Bracket, you can allow
the remaining tube length to feed to the left hand beige clip, and clamp the tubing. This will
leave the remaining tube length at the left side of the printer ready to be trimmed for
connection to the bottle fittings.
6.
Un-web the tubes from the right end beginning at the white plug up to the right hand side of
the beige clip, so that each tube can be independently on to its bottle. The tubes are easily un-
webbed by just pulling them apart, no tools are required. Don't go too far.
You can now align the bottles on the left hand side of the printer. The order of the ink bottles
from front to back are,
Magenta - Light Magenta - Yellow - Black - Cyan - Light Cyan
7.
Installing the tubing on the bottles is easy. In the CFS kit you received a set of bottle caps
with tubes attached. Remove the caps that came on the ink bottles and replace them with the
caps that have the tubes installed. Be careful not to spill the ink.
If your system was pre-filled, cut the tubes just above the white plugs, save the plugs in a

safe place as you may need them later if you should ever remove the CFS unit. When you clip
the tubing you Must clip it at the very edge of the white plug making sure not to lose any
length of tubing. If you ordered an empty system you should have vacuum filled your
cartridges by now, and your tubes will already be connect to the bottles.
Now push the tube onto the fitting on top of you ink bottle so the tube reaches the bottom of
the fitting. Do not put the wrong color tube on the wrong ink bottle. Follow the tube back to
the cartridge where the cartridge label identifies the ink in the chamber.
Repeat this process for each of the colors.
8.
You can now press the cartridges down into the correct positions. You may hear them click into
place, it is okay if you do not hear the click. Just be certain they are securely seated making
certain the cartridges are properly aligned and down all the way in the carriage. Clamp the CFS
system in place by locking the gray print head clamp down. Push the cartridge carriage all the
way to the right hand inside of the printer.
9.
Before closing the lid install the Black Foam Switch Activator into the recessed area on the
right bottom of the underside of the printer lid as shown in the photo bellow. You will need to
cut the Switch Activator to exactly 1" x 5/8" making sure to not cut it too small as it is a
friction fit. Cutting the Switch Activator too small may cause it to fall into the printer and
jam the printer carrier.
10.
Close the printer's lid ensuring the tubes are not pinched between the lid and the housing
(the Bridge Bracket is designed to hold the lid slightly open to prevent this). Plug the printer
back in and connect the USB cable, turn on the printer's power. Run a few cleaning cycles
until you have a perfect nozzle pattern. The printer is now ready for use. If you have
problems getting a perfect nozzle pattern, let the printer rest overnight, and try again in the
morning.
Note: If for any reason you must remove the CFS after installation you MUST replace the
white tube plugs as well as the orange seal caps to prevent the CFS from draining and
creating a mess.
The Care and Feeding of a CFS -
There are a couple of things you should know that will keep your system running trouble free.
Every time the Canon iP6000D CFS system is removed from the printer the prime (ink in the
tubes) will drain back to the bottles. After a few installations and removals the ink in the
S a v e M o n e y a n d I m p r o v e Y o u r P r i n t i n g

cartridge reservoirs will deplete making it necessary to Vacuum Pump Kit CFS-VP.
These systems work best if they are used frequently, daily is best, but every few days is
more important. If you are an infrequent printer or only print once or twice a week, then you
should install our AUTOPRINT (download it for free from our CFS page). Auto print will make
a printout using our Purge6 image everyday as long as you leave your computer and printer
turned on.
If you have to do cleaning cycles, do them in groups of 3 and be certain to print something,
we recommend a copy of the Purge6 pattern after every 3 cleaning cycles. The Canon
software will allow you to run cleaning cycles on the color cartridges or black cartridge
individually. If only one of the cartridges is problematic limit the cleaning cycles to include
the fewest number of cartridges possible. If you are still having problems after about 3 or 4
sets of 3 cleanings, then let the printer rest for a few hours or overnight and try again later.
This has worked on many Canon printers in the past. It gives the air bubbles in the ink a
chance to rise to the surface and get out of the printhead.
Don't let your ink bottles get empty. Refill them when they are at the 1/4 full level. Before
pouring new ink into your bottle, transfer the ink that is left into a clean glass or jar. Then
wash out the CFS ink bottle with soap and water. Then refill with leftover ink and new ink.
This keeps algae from building up on the walls of the bottle and causing premature ink failure.
An easier method is to order a spare set of empty bottles, and keep them on hand, clean and
ready to use.
