275XL Black Ink Cartridge Replacement

Key specifications

For households or small offices that print mostly black text, this compatible 275XL cartridge set offers a straightforward way to restock without buying color ink. The listing gives a yield of 400 pages per cartridge, calculated at 5% coverage on A4 paper, and says the cartridges use updated chips. That page figure is a reference point, not a promise for every print job: dense documents and graphics use more ink than lightly covered pages.

• Type: Compatible black ink cartridge
• Model: 275XL / PG-275 XL
• Package: Two cartridges
• Listed printer families: PIXMA TS3500, TS3520, TS3522, TS3700, TS3720, TS3722, TR4700, TR4720, TR4722, and TR4723
• Stated yield: 400 pages per cartridge at 5% coverage of A4 paper

The product is presented as a compatible replacement, not as a Canon-branded cartridge. Without having tried it, the practical buying consideration is whether a compatible option and its stated printer list suit your setup, the supplied information does not give details about ink volume or print performance beyond the stated yield and crisp text and graphics claim.

Who it’s for

It suits you if you need black ink for routine documents, forms, or schoolwork and your printer is one of the listed models. A two-cartridge pack can also make sense if you prefer to keep a spare nearby rather than reorder as soon as one runs low. For example, if you print a stack of mostly text pages for a meeting, the black-only format keeps the purchase focused on the color you use.

Not the best choice if your printer model is not on the compatibility list, you need color printing, or you specifically want a Canon-branded cartridge. The model names matter here: check the exact printer number on your device before choosing a replacement, especially if it is from a nearby series. The listing names several TS and TR models, but that does not establish compatibility with every Canon printer.

What’s included

The package contains two 275XL black ink cartridges. There is no information provided about extra supplies, installation tools, or instructions, so the useful comparison is with buying a single replacement: this pack gives you a second cartridge on hand, but it is still black ink only. The listing also says the cartridges have updated chips that are checked for compatibility. That is a stated feature, not a guarantee that every printer setup will behave identically.

Practical doubts

How many pages can one cartridge print? The stated estimate is 400 pages per cartridge at 5% coverage of A4 paper. Pages with heavier black coverage can use ink faster, so actual yield depends on what you print.

Which printers are named as compatible? The listing names PIXMA TS3500, TS3520, TS3522, TS3700, TS3720, TS3722, TR4700, TR4720, TR4722, and TR4723 models. Match your printer’s full model number against that list.

Is this a color cartridge set? No. The package is described as two black 275XL replacement cartridges, so it does not supply color ink.

Is it worth it?

This set makes the most sense when you need black ink, own a printer that appears on the stated compatibility list, and value having a spare cartridge available. Its clearest advantage is the two-cartridge format paired with a stated per-cartridge yield. The trade-off is that the yield is based on low page coverage, and the listing does not provide further performance details or establish fit beyond the named models. If you need a Canon-branded cartridge or color ink, a different type of replacement is a better match.
