LIFOR 545XL 400-page black ink
Product description
If you print regularly for work or school, having reliable ink cartridges on hand can make a noticeable difference to turnaround times. This LIFOR replacement ink set is designed to work as an alternative to Canon 545 and 546 XL cartridges, combining black and colour in one convenient pack for compatible Pixma printers. It’s made for straightforward installation, so you can get back to printing without unnecessary downtime. 🖨️
When you choose a XL size, you’re typically aiming for more pages between changes, which helps keep costs steadier over time. This multipack includes 1 black cartridge and 1 colour cartridge, and it targets everyday document printing where coverage is moderate, such as school worksheets, reports, and routine office pages. Worth noting that page yield will vary with how densely you print, and the manufacturer guidance mentions reduced yield when very many characters are packed into a single page. 🧾
Key features
This ink cartridge combo pack is built around the Canon 545 and 546 XL cartridge range, using black 545XL and colour 546XL cartridge formats in a two cartridge set. That means you get both monochrome and colour coverage from the same replacement purchase, rather than having to wait for one cartridge to run out before the other. The cartridges are described as easy to install, making them practical if you need a simple swap during busy weeks.
In use, the goal is consistent output for daily printing tasks, from general documents to everyday images. The pack is also positioned as a non original replacement, so it’s a value focused option if you’re looking for functional compatibility rather than paying for original branding. If your printer model is listed as compatible, you can follow the usual cartridge replacement steps and get printing again quickly. 😊

What matters most
The main practical advantage here is the page yield expectation for both ink types, which helps reduce how often you need to replace cartridges. According to the provided guidance, the black cartridge is rated for up to 400 pages and the colour cartridge for up to 300 pages on A4 at 5% coverage. In real life printing, coverage and formatting can shift results, especially if you tend to fill pages with dense text.
It’s also worth keeping the compatibility list close when purchasing, because these cartridges are intended to replace Canon 545 and 546 ink cartridges in the 545XL and 546XL XL formats. The listing includes a range of Pixma printer models such as TS3150 and TS3355, plus models like MG2550S, TR4550, MG3050, and MX495, along with other mentioned Pixma models. If your printer appears on that list, the cartridges are made to suit the replacement process and cartridge fit.
If you prioritise steadier running costs for school projects and office documents, this style of multipack can make day to day printing easier to manage. It suits people who want both black and colour replacements together, rather than spacing purchases across multiple weeks. Keep in mind that very high character density per page can reduce the effective page yield, as noted in the provided guidance. ✅
Who it’s for
It makes sense if you’re using a compatible Pixma inkjet printer and you regularly print documents that sit around typical A4 coverage levels. You’ll like it if you want a black and colour replacement pack for everyday reports, forms, and homework, where speed and practicality matter. It may not be a great match if you print extremely dense pages all the time, because the stated yield can drop when pages contain too many printed characters. The value is aimed at customers looking for a non original alternative while still keeping the cartridge swap straightforward for supported models.
