FAQs

Is the PFI-1100PM cartridge a pigment or dye-based ink?

The PFI-1100PM is a dye-based ink cartridge.

What does 'LUCIA PRO' ink technology offer?

LUCIA PRO ink uses encapsulated pigment particles and a Chroma Optimizer coat to enhance color gamut, gloss uniformity, and image clarity, while also achieving anti-bronzing properties.

Which Canon imagePROGRAF PRO printers are compatible with this cartridge?

This cartridge is compatible with models such as the imagePROGRAF PRO-2000, PRO-4000, PRO-4000S, and PRO-6000S.

Can I use this ink for archival printing?

While LUCIA PRO ink offers enhanced durability and anti-bronzing, dye-based inks generally have lower lightfastness than pigment inks. For long-term archival purposes, pigment-based inks might be preferred, depending on print longevity requirements and display conditions.

What is the ink volume in the PFI-1100PM cartridge?

The PFI-1100PM cartridge contains 160ml of ink.

How do I know if the cartridge is properly installed?

The printer's control panel will typically confirm a successful installation and show the ink level. You should also hear a click when the cartridge is fully seated.

Troubleshooting

Printer not recognizing the ink cartridge.

Ensure the cartridge is correctly seated. Remove and reinsert it. Check for any protective tape that may have been missed. If the issue persists, try cleaning the electrical contacts on the cartridge and inside the printer with a lint-free cloth and restart the printer.

Print quality issues (e.g., streaks, incorrect colors).

Perform a head cleaning and nozzle check through your printer's maintenance menu. If the photo magenta is the only color affected, ensure the PFI-1100PM cartridge is the correct one for your printer and is properly installed. Consider running a print head alignment.

Ink level reported as empty shortly after installation.

This can sometimes occur due to initial setup or a faulty cartridge. Try reinserting the cartridge. If the problem persists, contact Canon support or the retailer.
