Canon GI-40 Magenta Ink Bottle

Canon GI-40 Magenta Ink Bottle

The Canon GI-40 Magenta delivers vibrant color reproduction for high-volume printing applications in professional environments. This genuine Canon ink bottle features advanced dye-based formulation designed specifically for PIXMA G-series printers requiring exceptional color accuracy.

Advanced Dye Technology

The GI-40 incorporates Canon’s ChromaLife100+ dye system with enhanced molecular stability. This technology ensures brilliant magenta saturation while maintaining excellent color consistency. Furthermore, the ink’s optimized viscosity prevents nozzle clogging during extended printing sessions.

High-Volume Capacity

Each Canon GI-40 bottle contains 70ml of magenta ink, providing substantial color printing capability. The bottle’s precision dispensing system features a controlled-flow tip for accurate refilling. Additionally, the integrated vacuum seal maintains ink freshness and prevents contamination during storage.

Print Output Performance

The GI-40 produces approximately 7,700 standard pages based on ISO/IEC 24711 testing protocols. This yield results in cost-per-page ratios of $0.004 for color documents. Moreover, the ink maintains uniform color density from the first page to the last throughout the bottle’s operational cycle.

System Compatibility

Canon’s GI-40 Magenta works seamlessly with PIXMA G1020, G2020, G3020, G4020, and GM2020 series printers. The ink’s chemical composition matches these models’ internal specifications perfectly. This ensures optimal performance and prevents damage to delicate printhead components.

Color Accuracy Standards

The GI-40 achieves color gamut coverage of 96% sRGB standard for magenta reproduction. The ink also delivers optical density ratings of 1.7 for solid magenta areas. These specifications enable precise color matching for graphic design and photography applications.
