Frequently Asked Questions

What is in this bottle set?

Six GI-23 refill bottles of 57 ml each: Black, Cyan, Magenta, Yellow, Red and Gray. A complete refill round for Canon's six-ink photo MegaTank — the bottle set with two extra colors that ordinary tank printers do not have.

Which printer is this set for?

One machine only: the Canon PIXMA G620. The PIXMA G620 is a dedicated photo printer built on MegaTank reservoirs, and its six tanks take the GI-23 and nothing else. If your printer is any other G-series model, its bottle number differs — this set belongs to the G620 alone.

What do the Red and Gray bottles add to photographs?

Range and neutrality. Red extends the printer's reach into warm, saturated tones that four-ink systems clip; gray lays true mid-tones so monochrome and subtle color work stays free of casts. Together they are why the G620 prints like a six-ink cartridge photo printer while drinking from bottles.

What kind of ink is in GI-23 bottles?

All dye-based, in all six bottles — the photographic formulation. Dye inks sink into photo paper and blend at the boundaries, which is what glossy prints ask for. Even the black here is a photo black, tuned for depth in images rather than text on plain paper.

How does refilling a six-tank photo printer work?

The same keyed discipline as every MegaTank: each bottle's nozzle fits only its own tank, so red cannot wander into gray. Seat the bottle, let it drain hands-free to full, cap the tank. Six tanks take a few minutes, and the printer is back to photographs with its full palette restored.

Why sell all six as one set?

Because a photo printer's palette is a system. Refilling five tanks and leaving the sixth tired produces prints balanced on an aging ink — the subtle wrongness that is hard to name. A complete round keeps all six inks at the same age and honesty, which for this machine is the entire point.

What does $35.55 buy a photo printer owner?

A full six-color refill round at bottle economics — the class of cost per print that cartridge photo printers cannot approach. The G620's promise was photo-lab output at tank running costs, and a complete compatible round at this price is that promise kept.

How should the bottles be stored?

Upright, capped, at room temperature and out of sunlight, with the rest of your photo supplies. Part-used bottles stay reserved for their own tanks; sealed ones wait indefinitely for their turn. Dye inks in the wrapper ask for nothing more exotic than a shelf.

Who produces these refill bottles?

Clever Supplies manufactures them as compatibles to the GI-23 specification — all six colors including Red and Gray, with the keyed nozzles the G620's tanks expect. They are not Canon bottles, and they are priced as the alternative.

What warranty and returns cover the six bottles?

The Lifetime Warranty applies bottle by bottle: a leak or defective ink is replaced or refunded on that bottle's own record. Returns are open for 1 year from purchase as well — fair terms for a full palette refresh.
