Canon GI-41S Yellow Ink Bottle is available at Mascom International for KSh 2,250, sold brand new and sealed as a 40ml bottle of genuine Canon dye ink. The Canon GI-41S Yellow Ink Bottle carries Canon part number 5876C001 and a rating of up to 4,400 pages, or 4,600 in Economy print mode when all three colour bottles are in use. It refills the yellow tank on PIXMA G-series ink tank printers designed for GI-41 ink. Pick one up at Old Mutual Building, First Floor Room 4, Kimathi Street, Nairobi CBD, or have it delivered to you.
Designed for teachers, accountants, estate agents and small business owners, the Canon GI-41S Yellow Ink Bottle supplies the colour that sits quietly inside almost every colour print. Yellow is rarely printed on its own, yet it builds greens, oranges, browns and natural skin. When the yellow tank runs dry, grass turns blue and faces look grey, even though the other tanks are full. Customers across Nairobi tell us they often miss a low yellow tank because the ink is hard to see. The Canon GI-41S Yellow Ink Bottle gives you a cheaper way to fix just that one colour.
Where most Nairobi electronics shops push buyers toward a full set, Mascom International sells each GI-41S colour on its own. The Canon GI-41S Yellow Ink Bottle holds the same ink as the 70ml GI-41 Yellow, simply in a smaller bottle that costs KSh 100 less. At Mascom International, we're seeing offices in Upper Hill and Westlands keep one 40ml yellow on hand as a spare for busy weeks. Come to Kimathi Street with your printer model, or message us on WhatsApp and pay on arrival.
Common Questions About the Canon GI-41S Yellow Ink Bottle
How much does the Canon GI-41S Yellow Ink Bottle 40ml cost in Kenya?
The Canon GI-41S Yellow Ink Bottle 40ml costs KSh 2,250 at Mascom International in Nairobi CBD, brand new and sealed. Your money covers one 40ml bottle of genuine Canon yellow ink and a 6-month warranty against manufacturing defects. Delivery anywhere in Kenya is pay-on-arrival, so you pay when the bottle reaches you. The 70ml GI-41 Yellow is KSh 2,350, just KSh 100 more, if you would rather buy a larger bottle and refill less often.
Does the Canon GI-41S Yellow Ink Bottle fit every PIXMA G-series printer?
No, the Canon GI-41S Yellow Ink Bottle fits only PIXMA G-series printers that take GI-41 ink, not the whole G range. Canon's own store lists GI-41 ink for the PIXMA G3420, and GI-41S carries that same ink. Some other G-series models use GI-490 or GI-71 ink, and those need their own bottles. The quickest check is the ink code printed near your printer's tanks. Send a photo of it to us on WhatsApp if you are unsure.
Should I pick the Canon GI-41S Yellow Ink Bottle or the 70ml GI-41 Yellow?
Choose the 70ml GI-41 Yellow if you print colour most days, because it gives up to 7,700 pages for KSh 2,350. The Canon GI-41S Yellow Ink Bottle gives up to 4,400 pages for KSh 2,250. Worked out per page, the larger bottle costs about KSh 0.31 and the smaller one about KSh 0.51. The 40ml bottle is the better pick when colour printing is light, or when you want a spare bottle without tying up extra cash.
How much is a full GI-41S colour set at Mascom International?
A full GI-41S colour set of cyan, magenta and yellow costs KSh 6,750 at Mascom International, at KSh 2,250 per bottle. Adding the 70ml GI-41S black bottle at KSh 2,100 brings a complete four-bottle set to KSh 8,850. You do not have to buy them together. Most ink tank owners replace one colour at a time as each tank drops, so the Canon GI-41S Yellow Ink Bottle can be bought on its own whenever yellow runs low.
Do I need the Canon GI-41S Yellow Ink Bottle if I mostly print in black?
You need yellow only if you print any colour at all, because the printer mixes it into nearly every colour shade. If your work is plain black text, such as letters and invoices, the yellow tank will drain slowly and the Canon GI-41S Yellow Ink Bottle could last you a long time. Even so, printer cleaning cycles can draw a little ink from every tank, yellow included. Keep the yellow tank above its lower line to protect print quality.
Can I store the Canon GI-41S Yellow Ink Bottle in a hot shop in Mombasa or Kisumu?
You can, as long as the Canon GI-41S Yellow Ink Bottle stays sealed, capped and out of direct sun. Coastal humidity in Mombasa and the heat of a Kisumu afternoon are fine for a closed bottle kept in a cupboard or drawer. Avoid leaving it on a sunny windowsill or inside a parked car. Once opened, close the cap tightly after each top-up and keep the bottle upright, so the remaining ink stays clean and ready.
Who should buy the Canon GI-41S Yellow Ink Bottle, and who should look elsewhere?
The Canon GI-41S Yellow Ink Bottle is a good buy for homes, schools and offices that print colour in moderate amounts and want genuine Canon ink at the lowest price per bottle. It also suits anyone who wants one spare yellow without spending on a bigger bottle. Heavy colour users, such as print shops in a busy town centre, should take the 70ml GI-41 Yellow instead. Printers coded GI-490 or GI-71 need different ink altogether.
How can I tell that my yellow ink is running low?
Yellow ink is running low when greens print bluish, oranges look red and skin tones turn grey on your colour pages. Look at the yellow tank through the printer's tank window and compare the ink to the lower limit line. Yellow is pale, so check it in good light. If it is near the line, top it up with the Canon GI-41S Yellow Ink Bottle before a large colour job, rather than waiting for prints to go wrong.
Technical Specifications
Ink Formulation and Page Yield
- Genuine Canon dye-based yellow ink — identical to the ink inside the 70ml GI-41 Yellow, so colours stay consistent when you switch sizes.
- 40ml of ink per bottle — a lighter fill for printers that handle colour work a few times a week instead of all day.
- Rated by Canon at up to 4,400 pages — a figure averaged across cyan, magenta and yellow when a full colour set is installed.
- Up to 4,600 pages in Economy print mode — a lower-ink setting that stretches each bottle further on drafts and internal copies.
- About KSh 0.51 per page at the rated yield — a quick figure for budgeting colour printing in a home or small office.
- Dye ink sinks into the paper surface — yellow blends evenly with cyan and magenta for smooth greens, oranges and skin.
Printer Compatibility
- Fits Canon PIXMA G-series ink tank printers that take GI-41 ink — check the ink code printed near the tanks or in the manual.
- Confirmed for the PIXMA G3420 — Canon's own store lists GI-41 ink for this model, and GI-41S carries the same ink.
- Safe to add on top of GI-41 Yellow already in the tank — the ink is the same, so no draining or flushing is needed.
- Not suitable for printers coded GI-490 or GI-71 — those models run on a separate ink system with bottles of their own.
- Refills the yellow tank only — cyan, magenta and black GI-41S bottles are sold separately at the same Mascom International counter.
- Model unclear? Send a photo of the printer's label on WhatsApp and our team will confirm the fit before you pay.
Bottle Design and Build
- Plastic bottle sealed at the factory — the unbroken seal shows the ink is original Canon stock that has not been opened or refilled.
- Cap closes the bottle between refills — whatever ink is left stays clean and ready for the next time the tank drops.
- Yellow named on the label and box — makes it easy to match with the yellow tank so you never pour into the wrong colour.
- Canon part number 5876C001 on the box — the code to quote when confirming you have the genuine 40ml yellow bottle.
- Compact 40ml size — slips into a desk drawer or printer cupboard without taking up much shelf space in a small office.
- Best kept upright, capped and away from direct sun — heat is the main thing that harms ink once a bottle is open.
What Comes in the Box
- One Canon GI-41S Yellow Ink Bottle holding 40ml — sealed inside Canon retail packaging and ready to pour into your tank.
- Box marked GI-41S Y with Canon part number 5876C001 — Canon's own reference for this exact 40ml yellow bottle.
- No cartridge, print head or tools included — the bottle refills the tank built into your printer, so nothing else is required.
- Yellow only — cyan, magenta and black GI-41S bottles are bought one by one, so you replace only what runs low.
- Covered by the 6-month Mascom International warranty against manufacturing defects, with claims handled at our Nairobi CBD service desk.
Package Contents
The box holds one sealed Canon GI-41S Yellow Ink Bottle with 40ml of genuine Canon yellow ink, marked GI-41S Y and part number 5876C001. There is nothing to install, since the ink goes straight into the yellow tank your printer already has, and your printer's manual explains the pouring steps. Mascom International stocks the cyan, magenta and black GI-41S bottles separately, letting you buy a single colour or build the full set over time.
Warranty
A 6-month warranty from Mascom International covers the Canon GI-41S Yellow Ink Bottle against manufacturing defects, so a bottle or ink that is faulty from the factory is our responsibility.
