Perfect for users who print photos and color documents regularly and want to ensure uninterrupted printing with all colors on hand.

Dual Black Ink System:

Canon PIXMA printers use a dual black ink system: PGI-225PGBK pigment black for sharp text documents and CLI-226BK dye-based black for photo printing. This value pack includes the CLI-226BK dye-based black, which is specifically designed for photo printing, providing rich black tones and excellent detail in photographs.

For best photo quality, use Canon's genuine photo papers and ensure all cartridges are installed for optimal color balance. The individual cartridge design allows you to replace only depleted colors, maximizing efficiency and reducing waste. Run regular nozzle checks to maintain optimal print quality.
