Help removing printer head on Canon MG6821

[fdm2000]

My MFG6221 Canon printer has stopped printing magenta and yellow and most likely requires cleaning/flushing resulting from lack of color printing; however the head is installed in a way I am unfamiliar with and unlike all my past Canon printers. Wondering if anyone is familiar with this printer and if/how the print head can be removed.

If Canon designed the head to be non removable are there methods for cleaning/flushing without removing the head.

TIA,

Frank

Here is a video purporting to show how to Remove/Install a print head with most MG models.

I only see him install, not remove, a print head. Also, read the comments as there may be useful information to assist you.

I rememberer that mikling wrote something about removing and installing these printheads. I searched for that post and found it. Here it is.
