A little pricey but most of the cartridges are expensive. I must say that I like the fact that I'm given a notice when the cartridge is low, but I can continue to use it a lot longer than other cartridges I've used in the past. The ink dries faster than other cartridges too. This is a great feature for me.

I switched from the Cannon 350 series and at first was very pleased with the sharpness, but I thought there must be something wrong when I started getting the low ink warning. It had not been long enough. The refill I bought ran out in just a couple of weeks. When I bought the replacement, I compared with the ink for the old printer and found out why. It has only about 2/3 of the ink of the former cartridge. I feel cheated!

I will research the next printer I get. There is no reason this printer should not have the same amount of ink as others. I am stuck with the problem until I need to buy a new one.

Comments about Canon PG-240XL Black Ink Cartridge (5206B001), High Yield:

I have to replace this toner every month. I only get 2-300 sheets per cartridge which is expensive. It is clear and precise in the prints I get. It is easy to install, no mess no fuss. I love the packaging and purchasing it at Staples makes it convenient to pick up as the store is on my way to the Church where I put in voluntary and paid time. Most of the documents I print are for the Church. I have had to send them documents recently by email so that they can print most of them for me in order to save on the black toner.

    Black and White Photos need to start with the blackest black, and transition through every gray hue, to contrast with the pure white of the paper.

      • Q:

        I'd to know how many printouts I can expect on average from a 240 ink cartridge, a 240XL and a 240XXL cartridge. Same question for the 241 color cartridge.
        Asked on 6/21/2012 by Grammy from Apple Valley, CA

        1 answer

        • A:

          Assuming you print primarily letter-sized documents with a mix of text and graphics, Canon estimates an average yield of 180 pages for the PG-240 cartridge, 300 for the PG-240XL, and 600 for the PG-240XXL. On the same documents, they estimate the CL-241 to last for 180 pages, and the CL-241XL for 400. When printing 4"x6" color photos, they estimate the PG-240 to last for 1,420 prints, the PG-240XL for 2,170, the PG-240XXL for 4,340, the CL-241 for 67, and the CL-214XL for 135. Of course, all of those numbers will vary depending on the actual content of whatever you're printing.
