CANON CL-38 ink cartridge colour low capacity 9ml 207 pages 1-pack content_copy

The Canon CL-38 C/M/Y ink cartridge (manufacturer number 2146B001) is an original consumable for inkjet printers and serves as a replacement cartridge for the colour printing function. It is specifically designed for use in various Canon Pixma models, including iP1800, iP1900, iP2500, iP2600, MP140, MP190, MP210, MP220, MP470, MX300 and MX310. The cartridge contains a tri-colour ink with the colours Cyan, Magenta and Yellow and is formulated on a pigment basis, which enables high resistance to light and moisture as well as improved colour quality. The ink is used in the ChromaLife100 system, which ensures the production of colour documents and photos with high colour accuracy and long-lasting durability.

Applications

The cartridge is designed for use in home offices, small offices and private applications where reliable and high-quality colour printing performance is required. It is particularly suitable for printing documents with colour graphics, presentations, photo prints and other colour-intensive applications, where clear colour reproduction and high print quality are important. The high yield of the 9 ml ink enables a larger print volume compared to standard inks, increasing cost-effectiveness.

Features and equipment in detail

The CL-38 is supplied as a single cartridge (1 piece per pack) in a transparent packaging. The pigment-based ink offers improved resistance to smudging and fading, which is particularly beneficial for documents requiring long-term stability. The colours Cyan, Magenta and Yellow are integrated into a single container, simplifying handling and making printing processes more efficient. The cartridge is designed for use in inkjet printers equipped with the corresponding print head interfaces.

Technology explained simply

The pigment-based ink consists of finely dispersed colour pigments in a liquid matrix, which offers higher resistance to light and moisture compared to dye-based inks. This results in prints that maintain their colour intensity and clarity over a longer period. The ChromaLife100 system supports colour quality and extends the lifespan of prints. The cartridge is optimised for high printing speed and even colour distribution, resulting in clean and sharp print quality.

Compatibility and accessories

The cartridge is compatible with the specified Canon models, all of which are based on inkjet technology. Using original Canon ink ensures optimal interaction with the print heads and prevents potential damage to the device.

Installation and mounting

Installation is carried out by inserting the cartridge into the designated print head slot of the printer. The cartridge is recognised by mechanical guide elements and electronic contacts within the printer. Installation requires no additional tools or steps; it is performed by simply inserting and confirming the position. The cartridge is designed for direct use in compatible printers.

Operational advantages

Using the CL-38 provides reliable print quality with high yield. The pigment ink ensures long-lasting, vibrant prints that remain well-preserved even under normal environmental conditions. The cartridge is easy to handle and reduces the need for frequent replacements. Compatibility with a wide range of Canon models increases flexibility in use.

Country of manufacture

The cartridge is manufactured in Japan, reflecting Canon's manufacturing standards.
