CARTRIDGE FAMILY GUIDE

Canon PGI-5 & CLI-8 questions

What does the PGI-5 & CLI-8 family include?
  • Compare PGI-5 pigment-black packs, CLI-8 dye-ink combinations and CLI-8 photo black supplies. Select the complete colour set required by your printer. CLI-8 is also used in photo printers with different colour requirements. A black/C/M/Y pack is not automatically a complete photo-printer set; follow your model page.
How do I compare PGI-5 & CLI-8 pack contents?
  • 1 × CLI-8BK Black; 1 × CLI-8C Cyan; 1 × CLI-8M Magenta; 1 × CLI-8Y Yellow. Product titles distinguish singles, spare-black packs and mixed-colour bundles. Match the quantities and colours to what you need.
Which PGI-5 & CLI-8 capacity should I choose?
  • Compare the capacity labels and stated yields shown in the products and table. CLI-8 is also used in photo printers with different colour requirements. A black/C/M/Y pack is not automatically a complete photo-printer set; follow your model page.
Which printers use PGI-5 & CLI-8 ink?
  • The linked model list includes iP3300, iP3500, IP4200, IP4300, IP4500 and the other models in the list above. Open your exact model for its supply options and official setup information. Related family names alone do not establish compatibility.
Are all PGI-5 & CLI-8 options original Canon?
  • No. Original Canon products and compatible alternatives are separated on this page. Compatible supplies are third-party replacements and are not manufactured by Canon.
Can I add all PGI-5 & CLI-8 page yields together?
  • No. Black and colour figures describe different printing-test results, not an additive bundle total. Spare units add ink supplies without increasing each unit's stated yield. Actual output varies with coverage, settings, cleaning and use.
Where are the PGI-5 & CLI-8 safety documents?
  • The safety-sheet chooser lists the original Canon documents matched to this supply family. Select the exact number, colour and capacity. Canon sheets do not certify third-party ink formulations.
Do all PGI-5 & CLI-8 printers need every colour in a bundle?
  • CLI-8 is also used in photo printers with different colour requirements. A black/C/M/Y pack is not automatically a complete photo-printer set; follow your model page. Use your printer's model page to choose the correct set rather than buying a pack solely by the number of colours.
