Canon PG-260 XL is a high-yield genuine black ink cartridge engineered to deliver crisp, consistent black text and reliable performance in compatible Canon inkjet printers.

Designed and manufactured by Canon to match the exacting tolerances of its inkjet systems, the PG-260 XL cartridge offers a larger supply of black ink than standard cartridges so you can print more pages between replacements. This cartridge integrates with Canon's printhead engineering and ink chemistry to help maintain printhead health, accurate nozzle firing and predictable output for documents and everyday prints.

How much more will this XL cartridge print compared with the standard size?

The PG-260 XL has a higher ink capacity than Canon's regular PG-260 cartridge, giving you substantially more pages per cartridge for black text.
