Canon PIXMA G3625 MegaTank Ink Bottles
Your Canon PIXMA G3625 MegaTank uses the GI-61 series ink bottles, a reliable multi-colour ink delivery setup that we have supplied since Aug 2022. This continuous ink system means black and colour usage patterns vary greatly, with black often running lower during documents while colour depletion happens evenly during heavy graphic work. Our 4.8 Google rating is built on dependable cartridge performance and uncompromising product quality.
Real-world page output expectations
These ultra-high capacity ink bottles deliver an incredibly low cost-per-page, keeping print workflows highly economical. Page yields are determined by Canon using the industry-standard ISO/IEC 24712 test suites, simulating everyday document printing across continuous runs.

Managing your print supplies and delivery
If your daily prints consist mostly of text documents, stocking up on individual black bottles keeps your printer running efficiently without accumulating unnecessary colour stock. For heavy colour tasks, opting for multi-bottle bundles reduces the frequency of single orders. Compatible bottles include a full money-back guarantee for complete peace of mind. Free delivery applies on all orders over $99 (conditions apply), shipped quickly from our national network of warehouses in Perth, Brisbane, Sydney, Melbourne and Adelaide. Discover our full range of Canon ink bottles to find the best configuration for your workstation.
Understanding compatible ink options
Under Australian Consumer Law, using compatible cartridges does not void your printer warranty. Many businesses choose third-party options to reduce their total operating overheads significantly. If you want to see a full comparison of the two manufacturing styles, review our detailed guide on genuine vs compatible cartridges before making a decision.
Maintenance requirements and auxiliary parts
The continuous ink system relies on an internal maintenance kit to capture waste ink during printhead cleaning cycles. The MC-G02 maintenance kit will eventually fill up and stop operations until it is replaced. Experience Tip: When swapping out the MC-G02, ensure the printer is turned on so the internal counter resets automatically upon detection of the new housing.
Pro Tip
Keep a close eye on the physical ink levels through the clear plastic windows on the front of your printer; running the ink tanks completely dry can draw air bubbles into the internal ink lines, requiring a deep system flush that consumes significant ink.
Frequently Asked Questions
Why do compatible and genuine GI-61 colour ink bottles have different listed page yields?
The compatible colour bottles are filled to match standard specification capacities of 7,000 pages, whereas genuine Canon GI-61 replacement bottles are filled to the top edge, providing a higher yield of 7,700 pages under standardised testing.
How often does the MC-G02 maintenance kit need to be replaced compared to refilling ink?
The maintenance kit lifespan depends strictly on how often the printer performs printhead cleaning cycles. Heavy users who keep the printer active will rarely need to replace it, while intermittent users may fill the container faster due to automatic start-up cleaning routines.
Can I mix a compatible GI-61 bottle with genuine Canon inks already in the tanks?
Yes, you can safely pour compatible GI-61 ink into a tank that contains remaining genuine Canon ink. The chemical formulations are fully miscible, meaning they blend cleanly without causing coagulation or clogging inside the fine printhead nozzles.
