Canon PIXMA MG3010 Printer Ink

The Canon PIXMA MG3010 printer uses ink cartridges to produce high-quality prints. It utilizes two ink cartridges: one black cartridge for monochrome printing and one color cartridge for color printing.

The black ink cartridge is typically labeled as "PG-245" or "PG-245XL" for the high-capacity version. The color ink cartridge is usually labeled as "CL-246" or "CL-246XL" for the high-capacity version.

The standard capacity cartridges (PG-245 and CL-246) offer a lower ink yield, while the XL versions (PG-245XL and CL-246XL) provide a higher ink capacity, allowing you to print more pages before needing to replace the cartridge.

When purchasing ink cartridges for your Canon PIXMA MG3010, it's important to ensure that you are buying genuine Canon cartridges or compatible cartridges from reputable manufacturers. Genuine Canon cartridges are specifically designed for optimal performance and print quality with your printer.

To replace the ink cartridges, follow these steps:
