How to use

Before refilling, consult your printer user manual to confirm compatibility with GI-series refill bottles. Gently shake the bottle if recommended by the manufacturer, then open the printer’s ink tank cover and carefully insert the bottle nozzle into the yellow ink tank inlet. Pour slowly to avoid spills and watch the ink level in the tank; stop when the tank reaches the full indicator. Close the ink tank cover and run a printer alignment or nozzle check if prompted to ensure proper ink flow and color registration.

Recommendations

Store the ink bottle upright in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and freeze-thaw cycles. Keep the nozzle cap closed when not in use to prevent contamination and drying. For best results, use within the manufacturer’s recommended period after opening and follow Canon’s maintenance procedures to preserve printhead performance.
