About this product
The Canon PG-540L Ink Cartridge is a genuine replacement that delivers sharp, professional-looking text for your Canon PIXMA MG or MX series printer. It's packed with pigment-based black ink that produces crisp, clear documents rather than fuzzy or faded text, which matters whether you're printing reports, invoices or schoolwork. It prints up to 300 pages, which is enough for a few weeks or months depending on how much you print, and the pigment ink formulation means your documents stay looking sharp for longer without fading or smudging.
This is genuine Canon ink with FINE technology, so it works perfectly with your printer's print heads to deliver incredibly fine detail and crispness on paper. It fits PIXMA MX475, MX515, MX455, MX435, MX395, MX375, MX525, MX535, MG4250, MG4150, MG3550, MG3250, MG3150, MG2250, MG2150, TS5150, TS5151, MG3650S and MG3650 printers, and the formulation ensures your prints are long-lasting. The cartridge replacement is straightforward, so you're back to printing in moments without any fuss or compatibility worries.

Genuine Canon ink cartridges praised for quality, reliability, and print clarity. Considered expensive but good value for money; larger cartridges last longer. Some users note difficulty with ink flow initially.
