Frequently Asked Questions
Can I use PG-40 black ink in place of a PG-37 cartridge in the Canon PIXMA iP1800?
Yes, PG-40 cartridges are fully compatible higher-capacity alternatives to the PG-37. They share identical physical dimensions and fit into the same slot inside your printer while providing more prints per cartridge.
What happens when one colour runs out in the CL-38 or CL-41 tri-colour cartridge?
Because tri-colour cartridges integrate Cyan, Magenta, and Yellow ink into a single unit, the entire tri-colour cartridge must be replaced once any single primary colour depletes to maintain balanced print quality.
Do PG-40 and CL-41 cartridges output higher page yields than standard PG-37 and CL-38 cartridges?
Yes, PG-40 black and CL-41 colour cartridges contain a higher volume of ink than PG-37 and CL-38 cartridges, allowing you to print more pages before needing replacements.
