Shop ink bottles for your Canon PIXMA G3620 MegaTank, which uses the Canon GI-61 ink bottles series along with MC-G02 maintenance cartridges. Ink Depot has been supplying reliable consumables for this printer since Aug 2022. The G3620 is a continuous ink tank multi-function unit built for economic high-volume home printing. Using GI-61PGBK pigment black ink keeps document text crisp, while GI-61 colour bottles deliver vibrant images. Our 4.8 Google rating proves it: we consistently supply premium cartridges backed by rock-solid reliability.
Expected Bottle Output and Refill Cycles
GI-61 bottle yields are measured using standard ISO/IEC 24711 inkjet test pages. High-capacity refill bottles minimise refilling frequency during extensive document runs, ensuring uniform page yields across black and colour inks for everyday home office tasks.
| Cartridge Number | Type | Colour | Page Yield | Cost Per Page |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| GI-61PGBK | Standard | Black | 6,000 | $0.003 |
| GI-61C | Standard | Cyan | 7,700 | $0.002 |
| GI-61M | Standard | Magenta | 7,700 | $0.002 |
| GI-61Y | Standard | Yellow | 7,700 | $0.002 |
Cost Per Page = Total Cartridge Price ÷ Page Yield (at 5% coverage). Prices based on Genuine cartridges.
MC-G02 Maintenance Cartridges
The Canon PIXMA G3620 relies on an easily replaceable MC-G02 maintenance cartridge to absorb waste ink generated during normal operation. Experience Tip: The MC-G02 maintenance unit functions as an independent consumable, lasting through multiple bottle refills before requiring replacement.
Choosing Between Genuine and Compatible GI-61 Bottles
We supply both authentic Canon GI-61 bottles and high-quality compatible alternatives. Compatible ink bottles offer an economical solution while maintaining dependable print quality and vibrant colour rendering. Under Australian Consumer Law, using compatible cartridges does not void your printer warranty. Learn more by reading our genuine vs compatible cartridge guide.
Smart Purchasing and Fast Delivery
If you print mainly text documents, purchasing GI-61PGBK black bottles individually or in multipacks ensures continuous output. If you print photos or colour graphics, grabbing complete four-colour GI-61 sets maintains proper colour balance. Premium compatible bottles come with a full money-back guarantee should you experience any performance issues. Check our returns policy for details. We dispatch quickly from warehouses in Perth, Brisbane, Sydney, Melbourne and Adelaide. Free delivery applies on all orders over $99.

Consumable Pro Tip
Pro Tip: Keep an extra MC-G02 maintenance cartridge on hand alongside your GI-61 ink bottles; when the maintenance box fills up, the printer stops printing until it is replaced, regardless of ink bottle levels.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can I mix genuine Canon GI-61 black ink with compatible GI-61 colour ink bottles in the G3620?
Yes, you can refill individual MegaTank reservoirs with compatible GI-61 bottles even if other tanks still hold genuine Canon ink. The ink formulations are fully compatible within the tank system.
Why does the G3620 use pigment black ink for GI-61PGBK and standard colour ink for GI-61 colour bottles?
Canon designed GI-61PGBK pigment black ink specifically for smudge-resistant, sharp text printing on plain paper, whereas GI-61 cyan, magenta, and yellow colour inks provide smooth gradients and vibrant photo reproduction on glossy media.
How do I know when the MC-G02 maintenance cartridge needs replacing?
The G3620 monitors ink absorption levels electronically and alerts you on screen when the MC-G02 cartridge is nearing capacity. Replacing it requires no tools and allows printing to resume immediately.
