FAQs for Canon TR8620 Ink Cartridges

What ink cartridges does the Canon TR8620 use?

The Canon PIXMA TR8620 and TR8620a use five individual cartridges: PGI-280 pigment black plus CLI-281 dye black, cyan, magenta, and yellow. Starink high-yield replacements are labeled PGI-280XXL and CLI-281XXL.

Are Starink ink cartridges compatible with the Canon TR8620?

Yes. The Starink PGI-280XXL and CLI-281XXL cartridges on this page are designed for the Canon PIXMA TR8620 and TR8620a and include smart chips for straightforward installation and printer recognition.

What is the difference between the 5-Pack and 10-Pack for the Canon TR8620?

The 5-Pack contains one complete set of five TR8620 or TR8620a cartridges. The 10-Pack contains two complete 5-ink sets and offers a lower cost per cartridge for regular home-office printing.

Do Starink Canon TR8620 cartridges come with smart chips?

Yes. Smart chips are included, so no chip transfer is required. They are designed to support printer recognition and ink-level monitoring after installation.

Does the Canon TR8620 need Photo Blue ink?

No. The TR8620 and TR8620a are five-ink printers and do not use CLI-281 Photo Blue. For a complete replacement, choose the 5-Pack or 10-Pack rather than a six-ink set.

Can I use a 6-Pack or 12-Pack in the Canon TR8620?

Those packs include Photo Blue for six-ink printer models. Because the TR8620 and TR8620a do not use Photo Blue, the 5-Pack or 10-Pack is the complete set made for their five-ink system.

Can I replace only the PGI-280XXL pigment black cartridge?

Yes. If only the text-focused pigment black tank is low, choose the PGI-280XXL Black 2-Pack. You do not need to buy a full color set just to replace pigment black.

Is the 10-Pack two complete TR8620 ink sets?

Yes. The 10-Pack contains two PGI-280XXL pigment black cartridges and two each of CLI-281XXL dye black, cyan, magenta, and yellow—two complete sets for the five-ink TR8620 or TR8620a.

What are the page yields for Starink Canon TR8620 ink?

PGI-280XXL Pigment Black yields up to 600 pages; CLI-281XXL Dye Black up to 6,360 pages; Cyan up to 820 pages; Magenta up to 760 pages; and Yellow up to 824 pages. These are individual cartridge yields and should not be added together as one pack yield.

Can I replace TR8620 cartridges one at a time?

Yes. The TR8620 and TR8620a use individual ink tanks, so you can replace a depleted color as needed. When several cartridges are low together, a complete 5-ink set is usually the more convenient choice.
