Smart purchasing advice for MAXIFY cartridges

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I mix standard PGI-2600 and high-yield PGI-2600XL cartridges in the MAXIFY MB5460?
Yes, the MAXIFY MB5460 accepts any combination of standard PGI-2600 and PGI-2600XL cartridges across all four colour slots. The physical cartridge dimensions are identical; XL versions simply contain a larger internal ink reservoir.
Why does the MAXIFY MB5460 require all four cartridges installed to print black text?
The MAXIFY printhead system uses small amounts of colour ink during regular printhead maintenance routines to prevent clogging. Even when printing purely black documents, all four ink cartridges must contain ink to maintain internal pressure and protect the printhead.
How does Dual Resistant High Density (DRHD) ink impact everyday office printing?
Canon's DRHD pigment formulation is engineered specifically for business documents, rendering text and graphics resistant to highlighters, water, and smudging immediately after printing, ensuring archival-quality results on standard copy paper.
