What ink does the Canon PIXMA PRO-200 use?
The Canon PIXMA PRO-200 uses the Canon CLI-65 ink cartridge series, an eight-colour dye-based ink system developed specifically for professional photo printing. Each colour cartridge is replaced individually, allowing precise ink management and consistent colour balance.
Why the CLI-65 dye ink system suits modern photo workflows
Unlike pigment-based systems designed for maximum archival life, the CLI-65 dye ink system prioritises colour vibrancy, smooth gradients, and fast drying times. This makes the PIXMA PRO-200 ideal for photographers producing event prints, portfolios, exhibitions, and client-ready images on a wide range of photo papers.
The expanded colour set improves colour separation, reduces banding, and enhances shadow and highlight detail in both colour and black-and-white prints.
Advantages of using genuine Canon CLI-65 ink cartridges
- Optimised dye formulation for Canon PRO-series print heads
- Brighter colours and smoother tonal transitions than standard ink systems
- Consistent output across different media types
- Reduced risk of nozzle clogging and print inconsistencies
Managing ink colours on the PIXMA PRO-200
