Are all Canon ink cartridges the same?

It’s a great question, and if you’re not familiar with ink cartridges it can be a tricky one to answer. While some cartridges may fit multiple printers, using the right one for your specific Canon model ensures better print quality, reliability, and cost-effectiveness. You might get away with the wrong cartridge, but it’s always best to use the correct one for optimal performance and longevity. But don’t worry that’s where we come in! At Inkshop.ie, we make it easy to find the perfect ink for your printer. Keep reading to learn about the differences between Canon XL and XXL cartridges, and discover which ink works best for your Canon printer - all with fast delivery across Ireland!

How much are Canon ink cartridges?

Like the previous question, there is a huge variety in the answer. Some inks can be as cheap as €20, while others go to ten times that price. But Canon is a premium brand, and using genuine Canon ink means you won’t have to replace your cartridges so often. They will protect your printer from internal damage, and each print will be crystal clear with vibrant colours. We also stock our own brand generic Canon ink cartridges, these are super high quality ink cartridges you can trust, and at a fraction of the price from Inkshop.ie.

Are Canon XL cartridges worth it?

They are more expensive, so that’s a good question. Why pay more? Because it is worth it. The first thing to understand is that XL cartridges are not actually bigger than regular cartridges. They are exactly the same size, so fit into your printer with no extra effort. The difference is that there is more ink in the XL cartridges. Ink is expensive, so the XL cartridges cost more. But on the upside, you can print more pages at a better rate per page. So if you print frequently, or want to save money in the long term, XL makes sense.

What is the difference between Canon XL and XXL ink cartridges?

When choosing ink cartridges for your Canon printer, you may come across standard, XL, and XXL options. But what do these sizes mean?

  • Standard cartridges contain the least amount of ink and are best for light printing needs.
  • XL cartridges offer a higher ink capacity than standard versions, making them a cost-effective choice for frequent printing.
  • XXL cartridges provide the highest page yield, reducing the need for replacements and offering the best value for high-volume printing.

At Inkshop.ie, we offer high-quality own-brand XXL ink cartridges that deliver exceptional page yields at a lower cost. See the comparison below:

By choosing our Inkshop.ie own-brand XXL cartridge, you get more prints per cartridge and better value for money, all while maintaining high-quality printing. Perfect for home offices, businesses, and anyone who prints frequently!

Will Canon XL inks fit into my printer? 

You need have no fears on that score - the XL and XXL refer to the amount of ink in the cartridge, not the size of the cartridge. So you can fit them into your printer just as easily as the regular cartridges. It’s just you’ll have to do the fitting far less often!

How can I recycle Canon ink cartridges? 

We are more concerned than ever with protecting the environment and doing our bit to forge a sustainable future for our children and grandchildren. The good news is that Canon ink cartridges can be recycled and reused. But not if you toss them in the bin.

At inkshop.ie we are fully committed to sustainability. We are going to do a bit of chest thumping now, not to boast, but because we truly believe this. We take our environmental responsibilities very seriously. All our office waste is recycled, and we are delighted to be able to help our customers recycle too. There is another option that is also worth considering. Many charities collect empty printer cartridges to raise money by refilling and reselling them. Learn more about recycling ink cartridges on our blog!
