Genuine Canon CL-261XL colour cartridge

This genuine Canon CL-261XL colour ink cartridge is designed for compatible Canon printers. It uses dye-based ink to produce colourful photos and images. The XL capacity helps you print more pages and extends the time between cartridge replacements. It is suited for home users who want reliable colour output.

Simple front-load installation

The cartridge installs by opening the printer cover and sliding the unit into the colour slot until it clicks. No tools or firmware steps are required. The most common issue is leaving the protective tape or orange cap on the contacts, which prevents the printer from recognising the cartridge. Ensure all packaging is fully removed before inserting.

Dye-based ink with ChromaLife100

This cartridge uses dye-based ink rather than pigment-based ink, which affects colour vibrancy and paper compatibility. When paired with Canon photo paper, the ChromaLife100 system protects photos from fading for longer periods. Buyers who need pigment-based ink for archival documents on plain paper should look elsewhere.

Questions about this item

How can I verify the CL-261XL cartridge is working correctly after installation?

Print a test page or photo from your Canon printer; the output should show vivid, accurate colours with no streaks or missing lines, confirming the dye-based ink is flowing properly.

What comes in the box with the Canon 3724C001 CL-261XL, and is anything else required?

The box contains one new CL-261XL colour ink cartridge. You will need a compatible PG-260 black cartridge and Canon photo paper to use the ChromaLife100 fade-protection system.

Which capacity of the CL-261 colour cartridge should I choose?

Choose the XL version (model 261) if you want to print more pages and replace the cartridge less often; the standard-capacity 261 holds less ink.
