Canon’s latest refillable ink tank printers feature high ink volumes combined with improved page yield to offer low-cost printing. For easy maintenance, the new G Series includes a drip-free, hands-free ink refilling mechanism, and a user-replaceable maintenance cartridge design to ensure minimum downtime and maximum productivity for homes and businesses. 

Whether you are a photographer, small home business, content creator or student, having a all-in-one multi-function home printer would be very useful and essential as WFH might be a norm in the future of work or new hybrid working/studying environment in the very near future.

Edwin Teoh, Head of Marketing, Singapore Operations, Canon Singapore said: “With more people working and studying from home, they will need printers that deliver maximum productivity and cost efficient printing. With easy maintainability, users can be assured of minimal downtime. We have also seen a significant rise in printer sales in the last six months, and our G series is set to meet this increased demand.” 

More Ink, More Performance, More Pages 

Right out of the box, the new Canon G series includes enough ink to last a long time for most users. The black-only documents page yield has been improved by 26% (1) compared to existing G series models, with the new models delivering up to 7,600 pages with one black ink bottle. Page yield for colour documents has also been improved with the new models capable of printing 7,700 pages with one colour ink bottle. For businesses and homes with high print volumes, this increased page yield presents a more economical choice. 

The printers are suitable for both general use and photo printing, with crisp and sharp text in text documents and line drawings through the dedicated use of pigment black ink, and automatic switching to only dye-ink colour channels when there is a need to produce borderless glossy photos up to A4 sizes. 

Drip-free, Hands-Free Ink Refilling Process 

To avoid unintended filling of coloured inks into the wrong tank openings, the new Canon G series features new ink bottle designs, with outlet nozzles that fit only in the respective colour tank well openings. Ink filling is fast, drip-free, and hands-free, allowing users to complete the entire unboxing and setup process in just minutes, while maintaining a mess-free workstation. 

An integrated ink tank design also keeps the printer footprint compact, while providing clear visual indication of remaining ink levels. 

Always Up and Running 

The user-replaceable maintenance cartridge design of the new Canon G series coupled with the automatic reset of the internal ink counter prolongs the printer lifespan well beyond conventional printers and ensures users can continue to use the printer with minimal downtime.

At this point in time, less than one week into the Circuit Breaker period in Singapore, how are you feeling right now, your emotions, your inner most thoughts, words speaking to you? How are you coping with working from home, quarantine life and home-based learning? Are you feeling a roller coaster of emotions and thoughts right now, with more news and restrictions coming into this Circuit Breaker period in Singapore? Through my earlier article, which emotional stage are you at right now?

I would like to share some of the photographs that I shot with the Canon EOS M6 Mark II review camera before the circuit breaker kicked in, through the viewing of my landscape photographs, I hope that they would be a form of therapy for you to keep calm, stay safe, stay at home, spend time with your family, children and loved ones.

We all need to stay #SGUnited #SGTogether, fight the Covid-19 virus together. Let’s get it under control and we can get back to our normal life, not just in Singapore, around the world too. This current battle against Covid-19 might take longer than expected, it is not likely to end soon, that would also mean we have to continue with WFH and quarantine life for a bit longer.

While we continue to find new ways to maintain human interaction and connection, we can leverage on technology, social media and communication apps to keep the human connection and interaction going.

I would continue to share more photographs, as a form of enjoyment and therapy for those who need the calm and tranquility during this difficult period. Take care and be safe!
