Canon PGI-250 Pigment Black Cartridge

This genuine Canon ink tank uses pigment-based ink to produce crisp, smudge-resistant text for professional documents. It is engineered with FINE print-head technology and fits the compatible PIXMA printers listed by the manufacturer. The single cartridge carries model number 6497B001 and is supplied new.

Who This Suits and Who It Does Not

Home-office users and small-business owners who print mainly text on supported PIXMA models will get reliable, archival-quality output. Buyers who need colour inks, high-capacity tanks, or cartridges for non-PIXMA printers should look elsewhere.

Deciding Specification — Pigment Black Ink Type

The cartridge contains pigment-based black ink rated at approximately 300 pages at five percent coverage. That yield and ink chemistry determine whether the cartridge matches your print volume and document-durability requirements.

Questions about this item

How do I install the PGI-250 cartridge and what step is often missed?

Open the printer cover, wait for the carriage to centre, press the old tank's release tab, lift it out, remove the orange cap and tape from the new PGI-250, slide it in until it clicks, then close the cover; the step people skip is removing both the cap and the protective tape before insertion.

What maintenance or replacement will the PGI-250 need later?

The cartridge itself is replaced once its approx. 300-page yield at 5 % coverage is reached; the printer will prompt you when ink runs low, and no separate print-head cleaning kit is required for this pigment black tank.

What limit appears first during continuous printing with the PGI-250?

The ink supply runs out after roughly 300 pages at 5 % coverage, which is the first hard limit you will hit during sustained use.
