Is this an original Canon product?

How does pigment-based ink differ from dye-based ink?

Original Canon cartridges are designed to work precisely with Canon printers, ensuring optimal performance, print quality, color accuracy, and longevity of the print heads, while also maintaining printer warranties.

Troubleshooting

Printer not recognizing the new ink tank

Ensure the ink tank is correctly seated in its slot. Remove and reinsert it firmly. Check for any protective packaging still attached to the tank. Restart the printer.

Poor print quality or faded magenta colors

Run a print head cleaning cycle through the printer's maintenance menu. Check ink levels. If the issue persists after cleaning, perform a nozzle check and consider replacing the ink tank.

Error message related to ink system

Refer to your printer's manual for specific error codes. Ensure you are using a genuine Canon PFI-310M ink tank compatible with your printer model. Contact Canon support if the error persists.

Ink not flowing correctly after prolonged storage

Perform multiple cleaning cycles and nozzle checks. Print a few test pages with solid magenta areas to help prime the ink system.
