Is the Canon PG-275 Black Ink Cartridge worth it?

A genuine black ink cartridge for dependable everyday documents

The 4pm test for printer supplies is simple: does the cartridge fit, print clearly, and avoid turning a routine document into a compatibility puzzle? The Canon Genuine PG-275 Black Ink Cartridge is made for selected Canon PIXMA inkjet printers, including the TS3520, TS3522, TS3720, TS3722, TR4720, and TR4722.

The key design choice is that this is genuine Canon ink developed for compatible Canon printers. That matters because the cartridge and printer are intended to work as a matched system. Canon says the PG-275 produces crisp, sharp black text, while its FINE technology uses 6,000 or more nozzles in the print heads for print precision and accuracy. The practical result is a cartridge aimed at ordinary documents, copies, and plain-paper printing rather than a complicated refill routine.

The listed yield is up to 100 pages. That gives you a clear way to judge fit: it suits a home office, student desk, or occasional paperwork schedule better than a workload that quickly moves through cartridges. Check your exact PIXMA model before ordering, then the decision is pleasantly narrow. You are paying for a genuine, model-specific black cartridge with a stated page yield and a simple replacement job.
