GPC Image Ink Cartridges, 5-Pack

Highlights

This five-cartridge set pairs a PGBK 280XXL cartridge with four CLI-281XXL cartridges, giving you black, cyan, magenta, and yellow for compatible Canon printers. It’s a practical way to replace several depleted cartridges together rather than buying each color separately.

The listing states yields of 600 pages for the PGBK 280XXL, 6,360 pages for the black 281XXL, and 830 pages for each color 281XXL cartridge. Treat those figures as the manufacturer’s stated yields, actual results can vary with what you print and how much ink each page uses.

Keep one detail in mind: Photo Blue is not included. If your printing routine depends on that cartridge, this pack won’t cover the full set you need.

Best use cases

This replacement set is aimed at owners of listed Canon PIXMA models, including the TR8620a, TR7520, TR8520, TS702a, TS6120, TS9520, and TS9521c. The full compatibility list also names other TR and TS models, so match your printer’s exact model number against the listing before ordering. Similar-looking model names aren’t enough to confirm a fit.

It suits you if you want the standard black-and-color combination on hand for a mix of everyday documents and color prints. For example, if a printer runs out of cyan while you’re preparing a colorful page, having the replacement set ready avoids having to source that color on its own. If you only need one cartridge, a single-color replacement may be a more targeted purchase. It might not be a great match if Photo Blue is essential to your setup or your printer model isn’t listed.

Tips for day-to-day use

The product description says the cartridges use smart chips intended to support stable operation, but it doesn’t provide details about installation steps or printer prompts. Follow the instructions for your specific printer when replacing a cartridge, and check its screen or software afterward to see whether it recognizes the new ink.

From the way it is set up, this is a mixed pack rather than a bundle of identical cartridges: it contains one PGBK 280XXL, one black 281XXL, and one each of cyan, magenta, and yellow. Keeping the packaging or noting which cartridge is which can make it easier to reach for the right replacement later. The stated page yields aren’t a guarantee for every print job, especially when pages vary in color coverage.

Practical doubts

Which cartridges are in the pack? It includes PGBK 280XXL, black 281XXL, cyan 281XXL, magenta 281XXL, and yellow 281XXL. Photo Blue is excluded.

Will it work with every Canon PIXMA printer? No universal compatibility is claimed. The listing names specific TR and TS models, confirm that your exact printer appears there.

Are the page-yield figures guaranteed? They are stated yields in the product information, not a promise that every user will get the same number of pages. Print content affects ink use.

Final verdict

Choose this GPC Image set if your printer is one of the listed models and you want a coordinated replacement for black and the three standard color cartridges. The stated yields may also appeal if you prefer keeping replacements ready instead of buying colors one at a time. Skip it if you need Photo Blue, or if you can’t confirm your exact printer model in the compatibility list, those are more meaningful checks than the broad Canon compatibility wording alone.
