- Savings amount will vary depending on the monthly plan chosen and does not apply to the Pay Per Print plan. The savings claim applies to the monthly print plans available and is based on the cost per print calculated on the page yield of 400 Black / 300 Color pages per ink cartridge set and cost of $66.99 for a value pack of PG-260(XL) and CL-261(XL), the page yield of 300 Black / 300 Color pages per ink cartridge set and cost of $63.99 for a value pack of PG-275(XL) and CL-276(XL) and the page yield of 400 Black / 400 Color pages per ink cartridge set and cost of $75.99 for a value pack of PG-285(XL) and CL-286(XL) ink cartridges (using Canon Online Store prices as of May 2024).

Page yield is an estimated value based on Canon individual testing method using ISO/IEC 24712 test chart and continuous printing simulation with full set of ink cartridges after initial setup.
- Page yield of included ink bottles used for initial setup is lower than the replacement ink bottles, as a certain amount of ink is consumed to fill into the print head during setup (charging the print head initially). Page yield is the estimated value based on Canon individual test method using the ISO/IEC 24712 chart and continuous printing simulation with the replacement ink bottles after initial setup. Page yield of color inks is an average yield of cyan, magenta and yellow inks combined. Page yield varies significantly depending on content printed, ink levels maintained in all four reservoirs, and other factors. Up to 6,000 (black)/7,700 (color) printed page yields are approximate using `default printing mode’. A full set of MegaTank GI-21 ink bottles (pigment black, cyan, magenta, yellow) is equivalent to 30 each standard capacity Black (PG-260) and Color (CL-261, composed of cyan, magenta and yellow) ink cartridges sold individually based on print yield. Ink value savings based on MSRP (USD) of stated ink bottles and equivalent ink cartridges as of February 2023.
