Smart Ink PGI-280XXL / CLI-281XXL Compatible Ink Cartridges, 5-Pack

When one cartridge needs replacing, a single refill may be enough, when you want to restock the full set, this five-cartridge pack covers pigment black, black, cyan, magenta, and yellow. It’s made for compatible Canon PIXMA inkjet printers.

The XXL cartridge format and smart chip help make routine printing easier to manage. The chip tracks ink levels and alerts you when it’s time to reorder, so you can keep an eye on supplies while printing documents and color pages.

This set suits home or office printing where both black text and color output matter. Instead of sourcing each color separately, you get the five listed cartridges together for a convenient restock.
