The Canon GI-46M Magenta Ink Bottle is a genuine Canon magenta ink refill designed for selected refillable ink tank printers. With a 135 ml bottle, pigment-based ink and a rated yield of up to 11,959 pages from a full bottle, it is a practical consumable for users who need to replenish the magenta ink supply in a compatible Canon ink tank printer.

For businesses, offices and professional users, ink consumption can become an important part of day-to-day printing. The GI-46M is designed with business document printing in mind, giving users a high-capacity magenta refill rather than a smaller conventional cartridge. Canon specifies a yield of up to 11,959 pages from a full bottle, which can help users go longer between refills when printing within the conditions used for Canon’s stated yield measurement.

The 135 ml ink capacity provides a substantial supply of magenta ink for compatible refillable ink tank printers. This makes the bottle particularly relevant for workplaces and other environments where printing is a regular requirement. The stated page yield should, however, be viewed as a manufacturer-rated figure rather than a guarantee of the exact number of pages every user will produce, as actual results can vary according to printing conditions and content.

Key Features & Business-Class Highlights

135 ml magenta ink bottle

The Canon GI-46M contains 135 ml of magenta pigment ink. The bottle format is intended for selected refillable ink tank printers, providing a dedicated refill rather than a conventional ink cartridge.

Pigment ink for business documents

Canon identifies the GI-46M as a pigment ink designed for durable, sharp and vibrant documents. Canon specifically describes the product as ideal for business documents.

Up to 11,959-page yield

A full bottle is rated by Canon to produce up to 11,959 pages. This high stated yield can be useful for users with regular document-printing requirements, reducing how frequently the ink supply needs to be replenished.

Durable document printing

Canon states that once documents have dried fully, the ink does not blur easily or become wet when used with a highlighted marker. Canon also states that small characters remain clear and legible, with friction and water resistance.

No-squeeze bottle design

The GI-46M uses Canon’s improved no-squeeze bottle design. This is intended to make the refill process more straightforward without requiring the bottle to be squeezed during filling.

Key-type nozzle

The bottle features a key-type nozzle, designed to help prevent accidental refilling of an ink tank with the wrong bottle. This is particularly useful when several ink colours are being used in the same refillable printer.

Suitable for selected refillable ink tank printers

Canon specifies that the GI-46M is intended for selected refillable ink tank printers. Printer compatibility should therefore be checked before ordering to ensure that the GI-46M is the correct consumable for your particular printer.

For South African businesses and home offices using compatible refillable ink tank printers, the Canon GI-46M provides a clearly identified magenta refill with a substantial 135 ml capacity and a manufacturer-rated yield of up to 11,959 pages. Its pigment ink formulation and business-document positioning make it particularly relevant where regular document printing is part of everyday work.

The no-squeeze bottle and key-type nozzle also address the practical side of replacing ink. Rather than focusing only on the ink itself, Canon has designed the bottle to make the refill process easier and help reduce the chance of putting the wrong colour into an ink tank.

Before purchasing, users should confirm that their printer is one of the selected refillable ink tank printers supported by the GI-46M. Compatibility has not been assumed here because Canon’s product information does not indicate that the bottle works with every refillable ink tank printer.
