Offering a larger ink capacity than the four-color cartridge printers commonly offers, the Canon G3010 is aimed at budget consumers who frequently print dozens of pages or more each month. It sounds promising, but the higher upfront cost may leave some consumers hesitant to make a purchase.

In terms of ink capacity and cost, ink tank printers are generally better than cartridge printers. Still, this doesn’t necessarily mean that the total cost of ownership is lower. How many pages you expect to print over the life of a printer is an important factor in figuring out which one between a tank and cartridge printer that best suits your need.

Features and Highlights

The Canon G3010 features wireless connectivity and an ink tank system designed to accommodate four high page yield ink bottles. Thanks to the ink tank design that has been improved, the printer’s size shrinks to a more compact size than the older generation of ink tank models.

Bulk-Ink System

Canon adds four large ink tanks at the front of the G3010, with the black ink tank twice larger than each of the other tanks. It is a reasonable decision to provide more black ink because people print pages mostly in black. Some buyers even decided to purchase monochrome printers instead.

The G3010’s bulk-ink system also use permanent ink reservoirs. When a tank is empty, it is not disposed of, but refilled with ink that comes from a bottle whose tip is specially designed for Canon’s ink tank to prevent ink spills.

Three Core Functions

The Canon G3010 is a 3-in-1 ink tank printer. It is complemented with a flatbed to scan and copy pages. Its monthly recommended volume is between 150 to 1500 pages. It is best to stop using the printer temporarily if it reaches the recommended maximum number of prints within a month. Using the printer excessively would only increase the risk of premature damages.
