Description
This compatible MC-G04 maintenance cartridge replaces the Canon MC-G04 waste-ink cartridge in the PIXMA G-series MegaTank printers listed below, at a lower price than the original. It soaks up the ink used during head cleaning and borderless printing, and gets a printer that has stopped with a "maintenance cartridge full" message working again.

Getting the most from this maintenance cartridge
Replace the maintenance cartridge as soon as the printer shows the "maintenance cartridge full" message; the printer will stop printing until you do.
Fit the new cartridge with the printer switched on, then close the cover and let it finish its check.
Seal the used cartridge in a bag before throwing it away, as it holds waste ink.
