Canon CLI42Y A3+ Ink Cartridge 51 Pages - Yellow

The Canon CLI42Y ink cartridge is specifically designed for use with Canon Pixma PRO-100 Series printers. This compatibility ensures that you achieve optimal print quality and performance, as the cartridge is engineered to work seamlessly with these models.

The ChromaLife100+ system utilises advanced dye-based inks that provide a wider colour gamut and improved lightfastness. This results in vibrant, true-to-life colours and stunning black-and-white prints. The system is designed to preserve your prints for up to 300 years in albums and 30 years under normal indoor lighting conditions, making it ideal for preserving your cherished memories.

The Canon CLI42Y ink cartridge can produce up to 284 photo prints at a standard size of 10x15cm or approximately 51 prints in A3+ size, based on a 5 percent page coverage. This yield makes it a cost-effective option for photographers and artists who require high-quality prints.

While the Canon CLI42Y ink cartridge is primarily designed for producing vibrant colour photographs, it can also be used for printing documents. However, for text-heavy prints or documents requiring sharp black text, it is advisable to use a black ink cartridge designed for that purpose.

If you're experiencing issues with colour quality, first ensure that your printer is properly calibrated and that you are using compatible photo paper. Additionally, check that the ink cartridge is correctly installed and that it is not expired or empty. Regular maintenance, such as print head cleaning, can also help improve print quality.

To ensure optimal performance, store the Canon CLI42Y ink cartridge in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures. Keeping the cartridge in its original packaging until you are ready to use it can also help maintain its integrity and longevity.

The 13ml capacity of the Canon CLI42Y ink cartridge allows for a significant volume of ink to be stored, enabling you to produce a higher number of prints compared to standard cartridges. This larger capacity is particularly beneficial for photographers who frequently print large formats or high volumes of images.
