What this cartridge is and who it fits

The Canon PGI-255PGBK XXL is a genuine pigment-black ink tank holding 37 ml of ink. It is designed for the PIXMA MG5522, MX922, MX722 and iX6820 printers and delivers approximately 300 pages at 5 % coverage.

What the high-capacity tank changes

The XXL volume lets you print 2.6 times as many pages as a standard 255 cartridge before replacing it. Pigment-based ink produces rich, dark text that resists smudging on plain paper. Genuine Canon tanks also unlock access to Creative Park Premium content and the smart LED confirms correct installation.

Build quality and daily use

The cartridge is new and manufactured to Canon specifications for reliable operation in the listed printers. Its tank design slots directly into the printer’s ink bay without tools. It is not suited for printers outside the compatible series or for users who need colour or photo-black inks.

Questions about this item

How often will the 37ml pigment black tank need replacing if I print 300 pages at 5% coverage?

The XXL cartridge yields approximately 300 pages at 5% coverage, so replacement frequency matches your print volume.

What stops me from printing continuously once the 37ml ink runs low?

The 37ml pigment ink supply is the limiting factor; the printer pauses when the tank is empty.

Does the 37ml pigment cartridge generate extra heat or noise during all-day printing?

The ink tank itself produces no heat or noise; only the printer mechanism operates during use.
