FAQs

What is the difference between this PFI-106C cartridge and other Canon cyan cartridges?

The PFI-106C uses Canon's LUCIA EX pigment ink and is specifically designed for certain imagePROGRAF large-format printers. Other Canon cartridges might use different ink formulations (dye-based or different pigment types) or be intended for different printer series or smaller formats.

How long does a 130ml PFI-106C cartridge typically last?

The lifespan of an ink cartridge depends heavily on print volume, coverage, and complexity of the prints. For high-volume professional use, it's designed to provide an efficient print yield, but specific page yields are not provided as they vary greatly with usage.

Can I use this cartridge in a printer not listed in the compatibility list?

No, using the cartridge in incompatible printers is not recommended and may lead to poor print quality, printer damage, or void the printer's warranty.

Is the ink smudge-proof and waterproof?

Yes, Canon's LUCIA EX pigment-based ink is designed to be highly resistant to smudging and water once dry, ensuring durable and reliable prints.

What does 'Original' mean for this ink cartridge?

'Original' signifies that the cartridge is manufactured by Canon, ensuring it meets the brand's quality standards and is fully compatible with specified Canon printers.

How should I store unused PFI-106C cartridges?

Store them in their original packaging in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight, and within the recommended storage temperature range of 10-35°C to maintain ink quality.

Troubleshooting

Printer not recognizing the cyan ink cartridge

Ensure the cartridge is correctly seated in its slot. Remove and reinsert it firmly. Check that the protective tape or cap has been completely removed. If the issue persists, try restarting the printer.

Faded or streaky cyan lines in prints

Run a head cleaning cycle through your printer's maintenance menu. If the problem continues, the cartridge may be low on ink or require replacement. Check ink levels via the printer's status monitor.
