Why choose the genuine Canon CL-541XL ink cartridge
Genuine Canon ink cartridge, formulated for the print head of these models: faithful colors, fast drying, no clogged nozzles. The printer recognizes the cartridge and shows the remaining ink level.
CL-541XL or CL-541: which capacity?
The 5226B001 is the high yield version (400 pages) of the 5227B001 (180 pages): same cartridge, same printers, more ink. Above a few dozen pages a month it is the most economical choice per page.

Check the exact reference of your printer (label or Information menu); suffixes are variants of the same series and generally use the same consumables. If in doubt, send us the exact model.
Page yield
400 pages (manufacturer data, about 5% coverage). Graphics or photo-heavy pages reduce the actual yield. The cost per page shown next to the price is calculated from the current price and this yield.
Installation
Replace with the printer on: open the cartridge door, remove the empty cartridge, unpack the new one, remove the protection without touching contacts or nozzles, insert until it clicks and close. The printer detects the cartridge and runs an alignment if needed.
Use and tips
The 5226B001 suits a lightly used printer (letters, a few documents a week): the cartridge (400 pages) lasts about 4 months at 100 pages per month and about 1 months at 300 pages per month.
Keep the printer plugged in and on: it maintains its nozzles and uses very little power in standby; print a color page regularly. Store cartridges in their packaging away from heat and install them before the printed date. Genuine cartridges protect the print head and the warranty.
