The Canon Pixma GI-790 ink bottles are a set of high-yield refill inks used in Canon's MegaTank/Ink Efficient G-series printers, which use an integrated refillable ink tank system instead of traditional cartridges.

Key Specifications

The GI-790 series includes four colors with different ink types and volumes:

Color	Ink Type	Volume (Capacity)	Page Yield (Approx.)*
Black (GI-790 BK)	Pigment-based	135 ml	6,000 pages

Dye-based Color Inks (Cyan, Magenta, Yellow): Used for bright, vibrant color photos and images.
