Genuine Canon CL-246 Colour Cartridge

The Canon CL-246 is a genuine dye-based colour cartridge rated at 180 pages. It fits PIXMA iP, MG, MX, TR and TS series printers including the 2420, 2520, 2820, 2924, 3020 and 3120 models. Home users and small offices get reliable colour output without third-party variability.

Single multicolour unit simplifies replacement

One cartridge holds cyan, magenta and yellow inks, so only a single slot is used. The combined design removes the need to track separate colour levels and reduces packaging waste. Printers listed in the compatibility list recognise the cartridge immediately and report ink status through their standard software.

Front-access slot enables quick installation

Open the printer cover, wait for the carriage to centre, then press the old unit down and pull it out. Insert the new CL-246 until it clicks and close the cover. The most common issue is forgetting to remove the orange protective tape before fitting, which blocks ink flow and causes blank pages.
