Your Canon Fax-JX210P uses the PG-40 and CL-41 ink cartridge series. Ink Depot has been supplying reliable consumables for this printer since Nov 2010. As a plain-paper fax printer designed for routine office communication, black text clarity is critical for incoming faxes and report logs. Choosing compatible PG-40 black cartridges keeps daily document expenses minimal without compromising print readability. Our 4.8 Google rating proves it: we consistently supply premium cartridges backed by rock-solid reliability.
Expected page output and replacement cycles
Expected page yields for PG-40 cartridges are measured in accordance with ISO/IEC 24711 testing standards under continuous printing conditions. Real-world yields vary depending on page coverage, transmission density, and print settings.
| Cartridge Number | Type | Colour | Page Yield | Cost Per Page |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| PG-40 | High Yield | Black | 329 | $0.13 |
Cost Per Page = Total Cartridge Price ÷ Page Yield (at 5% coverage). Prices based on Genuine cartridges.
Choosing between genuine and compatible cartridges
Using compatible PG-40 and CL-41 cartridges offers substantial savings for high-frequency faxing and office documentation. Under Australian Consumer Law, using compatible cartridges does not void your printer warranty. To understand how third-party options compare against original manufacturer supplies, read our guide on genuine vs compatible cartridges.
Best way to stock these cartridges
If you print mainly text and incoming faxes, opt for PG-40 black cartridges or multi-packs to maintain uninterrupted operation. If you regularly send or receive documents containing headers and graphics, keeping a CL-41 tri-colour cartridge on hand ensures consistent output. Our compatible cartridges include a 100% money-back guarantee for complete confidence. Free delivery applies on all orders over $99, dispatched quickly from our warehouses in Perth, Brisbane, Sydney, Melbourne and Adelaide.

Pro Tip
Because PG-40 and CL-41 cartridges feature an integrated printhead, always store spare cartridges in their original sealed packaging at room temperature to prevent the print nozzles from drying out prior to installation.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is the printhead built directly onto PG-40 and CL-41 cartridges?
Yes, both PG-40 black and CL-41 colour cartridges feature an integrated printhead on the cartridge body. Replacing the cartridge automatically installs a fresh firing mechanism, ensuring crisp document output and clear fax lines.
What is the main difference between PG-40 black and CL-41 colour cartridges?
The PG-40 contains pigment-based black ink engineered specifically for dark, sharp text on plain paper. The CL-41 contains dye-based cyan, magenta, and yellow inks designed for reproducing colour accents, logos, and graphics.
Can I print faxes using only a PG-40 black cartridge installed?
No, the Canon Fax-JX210P requires both a PG-40 black and a CL-41 tri-colour cartridge to be present in their respective bays to operate, even if you exclusively print monochrome faxes.
