Canon 1598C001 GI-290 Yellow Ink Bottle PIXMA G Series

The Canon GI-290 Yellow Ink Bottle is the OEM yellow refill consumable for Canon's PIXMA G-series Mega Tank printer line. Unlike traditional ink cartridges, the Mega Tank system uses large, fixed reservoirs that are topped off directly from these bottles — a design that dramatically lowers the per-page cost of color printing. The GI-290 Yellow uses a dye-based formulation, which means it's optimized for color saturation and vibrancy rather than archival permanence. At a rated 350 pages per bottle, it occupies the entry tier of the Mega Tank consumable range, though real-world yield will vary depending on coverage density and media type.

This ink is built for home users and small offices running light-to-moderate color print volumes who want to avoid the high recurring cost of cartridge replacement. The direct-fill nozzle makes refilling quick and clean, and the transparent reservoir walls on Mega Tank printers mean you can gauge remaining ink at a glance. For anyone already invested in the G-series ecosystem, using genuine Canon GI-290 ink is the straightforward choice for maintaining printhead health and color calibration over the printer's lifespan.
