Is there a big difference between standard and high yield mg2900 ink?
Yes. A standard capacity cartridge of Canon mg2900 ink in black or colour can print 180 pages. Standard yield is very common for individuals, home office and infrequent printing. A high capacity cartridge in black can print 400 pages and a colour version can print 300 pages. There is more ink in each cartridge, providing a high yield. Businesses, schools and organisations benefit greatly from using high capacity because they last longer and don’t have to be replaced as often. It also costs less per page. Whether you need standard or high capacity depends on your output, budget and printing preferences.
Should I buy compatible or genuine Canon mg2900 ink?
Both compatible and genuine ink is designed to work with your printer. Genuine cartridges are more expensive because they are produced directly by the printer manufacturer. If you are on a budget or want to spend less on ink, compatible Canon pixma mg2900 ink is the answer. It is a direct replacement for the original version so it costs less but provides the excellent quality you would expect. Using a compatible won’t affect your printer manufacturer. They conform to strict ISO 9001 quality standards, ensuring your printouts have the best possible finish.
