When your printer's ink runs out, the search for the right replacement begins. You want to start printing again quickly, without overpaying or buying the wrong cartridge. Choosing a Canon PG-560XL CL-561XL multipack seems logical for your PIXMA printer, but there are a few pitfalls that can cost you unnecessary money. Before you make a purchase, it's wise to know what to look for.
Many users fall into the trap of seemingly cheap alternatives that cause long-term problems, or they buy a cartridge that doesn't match their printing habits. This leads to frustration, wasted money, and poor-quality prints.
To ensure you make the right purchase, there are two important specifications you need to check. These determine the cost, quality, and reliability of your prints.
Opting for original Canon ink cartridges is a choice for peace of mind. These cartridges are specifically designed to work seamlessly with your printer. According to Canon, original ink cartridges deliver an average of 35% more high-quality prints than imitation cartridges. In practice, this means colours are consistent and the printer recognizes the cartridge immediately, reducing the risk of malfunctions. The reliability of an original cartridge ensures you can print without stress.
The 'XL' suffix is more than a marketing term; it signifies a larger ink capacity and a lower cost per page. A Canon XL value pack contains more ink and can print significantly more pages than a standard version.
For comparison, the standard PG-560 prints only 180 pages. If you regularly print documents or photos for work, school, or home, the XL version is the more financially savvy choice in the long run. A Canon ink combo pack with XL cartridges offers the most convenience. Always check if the cartridge is compatible with your model, such as the popular ink for Canon PIXMA TS5350 and TS7450 series.
Not everyone prints the same way. That's why we've highlighted a few options that suit different needs, based on objective product specifications.
Why It's a Match: Ideal for those who print regularly for a home office or family. This bundle offers a high capacity for both black-and-white and colour, meaning you'll replace cartridges less often.
This XL pack tackles the 'false economy' pitfall. You pay less per page and avoid the risks associated with non-original ink.
A complete and cost-effective solution in one package. The MPN 3712C008 ensures you receive the correct XL combination.
Why It's a Match: Perfect for those who only print occasionally, like a plane ticket or a return label. The lower purchase price is attractive if you don't use the printer weekly.
You don't pay for a large amount of ink that might dry out before you can use it. You still choose original Canon quality and avoid the risks of compatible cartridges.
Lower initial cost with the reliability and quality of an original Canon cartridge. Print capacity is 180 pages.
Why It's a Match: For students, freelancers, or offices that primarily print text documents like essays, invoices, or reports. The focus is on high-volume black-and-white printing.
You don't waste money on a colour cartridge if you barely use it. You invest specifically in the ink you need most, with the high capacity of an XL cartridge.
Maximum efficiency for text documents with a capacity of 400 pages per cartridge, which lowers the cost per page.
We have compiled a complete, up-to-date list of products that fully meet these strict selection criteria and EU regulations.
A PG-560XL black ink cartridge has a yield of approximately 400 A4 pages. The CL-561XL colour cartridge can print up to 300 A4 pages. This is based on the ISO/IEC 24711 standard. The actual yield may vary depending on the content of the printed pages, printer settings, and other factors.
If you only print a few pages a few times a year, a standard cartridge may suffice to prevent the ink from drying out over time. However, if you print monthly, even in small quantities, an XL pack is typically more economical. The lower cost per page ensures you save money in the long run.
The difference is in the capacity. The Canon 3712C008 is the XL value pack (PG-560XL and CL-561XL) with a high capacity, intended for regular use. The Canon 3713C008 is the standard value pack (PG-560 and CL-561) with a lower capacity, suitable for those who print less frequently.
