What to know before buying

Listing details to confirm

The listed yield is up to 500 pages per cartridge at 5% coverage. Customer feedback is mixed, with some reports of about 100 pages and others describing longer duration, so treat the figure as a claim rather than an assured result. Confirm your exact printer model, particularly if it is not among the listed models.

Who is it for?

A good fit for

Owners of listed Canon PIXMA models seeking two compatible black cartridges for plain-paper printing.
Buyers who want a claimed high-yield replacement and are comfortable with a non-Canon compatible cartridge.

Less suited to

Owners of Canon printers whose model is not confirmed compatible in the listing.

Customer feedback includes reports of easy installation, a good fit, and ink quality comparable to name-brand alternatives. Opinions on ink supply and duration are mixed, with reports ranging from about 100 pages to much longer use. One customer reports a compatibility problem with a Pixma TS202. That model is not in the explicit compatibility list, so verify the exact printer model and weigh variable reported yield against the claimed 500 pages at 5% coverage.
