Cartridge Selection Tip
Always install full high-yield PGI-2600XL sets rather than mixing standard PGI-2600 and XL cartridges, as MAXIFY ink counters track usage more accurately when all installed tanks share the same yield capacity.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can I install a PGI-2600XL cartridge if my MAXIFY MB5360 previously had standard PGI-2600 cartridges?
Yes, PGI-2600XL high-yield cartridges share the exact physical dimensions as standard PGI-2600 tanks and slot into the same ink bays without modification.
Why does my MAXIFY MB5360 prompt for replacement before a PGI-2600XL ink tank is completely empty?
MAXIFY printers reserve a small reservoir of ink inside internal lines to protect printheads from air exposure, ensuring print mechanism protection even when the cartridge replacement message triggers.
Are high-yield PGI-2600XL colour cartridges required for single-colour printing?
Yes, the MAXIFY MB5360 requires all four ink slots (PGI-2600XLBK, PGI-2600XLC, PGI-2600XLM, PGI-2600XLY) to contain recognized cartridges with available ink before initiating any print job, even monochrome text documents.
