New PGI 550 PGBK CLI 551 BK C M Y Compatible Refillable Printer Ink Cartridges

Just like the New Epson Daisy Inks, Canon have released a new range of printer cartridges called PGI-550 PGBK large black CLI-551 black, cyan, magenta and yellow dye inks.  These are designed to work in their new range of printers which include the Canon Pixma iP7250, MG5450, MG6350 printer models.  They are principally ink tanks with chips which slip inside the separate print head that comes with the printers.

Unfortunately compatible and refillable cartridges with auto rest chips are not yet available.  Technicians in China are currently working on developing new software compatibility to enable the use of after market replacement cartridges.  Sadly there is no estimated date when they will be available and introduced on to the market place.  Until then owners will have to buy original Canon OEM cartridges.

The delay in the arrival of compatible cartridges for these new machines will slow sales of the printers with knowledgeable consumers, however computer users shopping blind may be best advised to store the printer until cheaper printer cartridges become available.  Even so, these new Canon printer models are of a good quality and are capable of  producing high quality prints.  We anticipate that Canon will win various hardware awards for them.
