Canon PG-540 Ink and CL-541 Ink Cartridges

Q: What printers are compatible with Canon 540 and 541 ink?

Canon PG-540 (Black) and CL-541 (Colour) ink cartridges are compatible with a range of Canon Pixma printers. This includes models from the MG series such as MG2150, MG2250, MG3150, MG3250, MG4150 and MG4250, as well as MX series like MX375, MX395, MX435, MX455, MX475, MX515, MX525 and MX535. To be certain, check our printer compatibility list.

Q: How many pages can Canon PG-540 and CL-541 ink cartridges print?

The Canon PG-540 Black ink cartridge has a standard page yield of approximately 180 pages, while the CL-541 Colour ink cartridge also yields around 180 pages. There are also XL versions available (PG-540L and CL-541XL) that offer a higher page yield, making them a more economical option for users with higher print volumes.

Q: What's the difference between PG 540 and XL ink cartridges?

The main difference between the standard Canon PG-540 and the XL version (known as Canon PG-540L) is the amount of ink they contain and, consequently, their page yield. The XL version, PG-540L, contains more ink and can print more pages compared to its standard counterpart. This makes the XL cartridge better value for users who print frequently, as they need to be replaced less often.

Where can my used cartridges be recycled

Where can my used cartridges be recycled
- If you are looking to recycle your cartridges then I would recommend Empties Please Printer Cartridge Recycling.
  
  Small quantities of ink cartridges can be returned to them by post, they'll send you a freepost envelope to return to them. However, if it's 'branded' toner cartridges you use, Empties Please can supply you with a recycle bin to collect your toners in. Once it's full they'll collect it free of charge and make a donation to charity for you!
  
  For more information and to view their ink and toner acceptance lists, visit the Empties Please website - www.emptiesplease.com
  
  * Please note the postal recycle bags are designed for ‘INK’ cartridges only and you can fit quite a few in them! Unfortunately they are unable to accept single 'TONER' cartridges through the post. Empties Please are only able to recycle 'branded' toners via their recycle bin scheme.
