FAQs

What is the page yield for the black XXL cartridge?

The black XXL cartridge is rated for approximately 858 photos at ISO/IEC 24711 standard.

Are these cartridges compatible with any Canon Pixma printer?

No, these cartridges are specifically designed for a range of Canon Pixma TR and TS series printers, including TR 8500, TR 7500, TS 8100, TS 9100, TS 6100, TS 9500 series, and specific models within these lines. Always check your printer model against the compatibility list.

How do the XXL cartridges compare to standard ones?

The XXL cartridges offer a higher ink capacity, providing up to 3.2 times more printing compared to the standard equivalent cartridges, making them more cost-effective for high-volume printing.

What colors are included in this multipack?

This multipack includes Black, Cyan, Magenta, and Yellow ink cartridges.

Can I use these cartridges if my printer originally came with standard cartridges?

Yes, as long as your printer model is listed as compatible, you can use the XXL cartridges. They are designed to be a higher-yield replacement for standard cartridges within the same model range.

What does 'very high yield' mean in this context?

'Very high yield' refers to the significantly larger amount of ink contained within the XXL cartridges, allowing for a much greater number of printed pages or photos before the ink runs out compared to standard or high-yield (XL) cartridges.

Troubleshooting

Printer not recognizing new ink cartridge

Ensure the cartridge is correctly seated in its slot. Remove and re-insert it. Check for any protective tape that may have been missed during installation. If the problem persists, try cleaning the electrical contacts on the cartridge and inside the printer with a lint-free cloth.

Print quality is poor (streaks, faded colors)

Run the printer's built-in head cleaning utility. Check that the correct paper type is selected in the print settings. Ensure the ink cartridges are not empty. If using a new cartridge, allow it to complete any initial setup or priming process.

Ink levels show as empty or low shortly after installation

This can sometimes occur if the printer's internal page counter was not reset correctly after the previous cartridge. Try running a deep cleaning cycle. If the issue persists, contact Canon support.
