Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Professional-grade pigment ink for archival permanence
  • Precise color reproduction and deep saturation
  • Reliable, consistent performance with the imagePROGRAF PRO-300
  • Easy installation process within the printer's cartridge bay

Cons

  • Compatibility limited to the PRO-300 series
  • Pigment inks are generally more expensive than standard dye-based alternatives
  • Requires proper storage to maintain shelf life

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Installation of the PFI-300M is straightforward: open the front ink cover of your Canon imagePROGRAF PRO-300, push the release tab on the depleted cartridge, and slide the new unit into the slot until it clicks. Ensure the printer is powered on during this process so the system can recognize the new cartridge.

To ensure maximum longevity of your ink and print head:

  1. Keep cartridges in their original sealed packaging until ready for use.
  2. Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight or extreme temperature fluctuations.
  3. Run a nozzle check if the printer has been idle for more than two weeks.
  4. Use only genuine Canon PFI-300 tanks to maintain your printer's internal calibration.
