1 30 ink cartridge sets is based on print yield of the included black and color ink bottles as compared to the following

standard-capacity cartridge sets: PG-245 Black Ink Cartridge and CL-246 Color Ink Cartridge as of August 2016.

2 Page yield of included ink bottles used for initial setup is lower than the replacement ink bottles, as a certain amount of

ink is consumed to fill into the print head during the setup (charging the print head initially). Page yield is the estimated

value based on Canon individual test method using the ISO/IEC 24712 chart and continuous printing simulation with the

replacement ink bottles after initial setup. Page yield of color inks is an average yield of cyan, magenta and yellow inks

combined. Page yield varies significantly depending on content printed and other factors. Up to 6,000 (black) / 7,000

(color) printed page yields are approximate, based off document pages printed.
