Canon CLI-65PC Photo Cyan Ink Cartridge

Product Overview

AI-generated summary

Canon’s CLI-65PC Photo Cyan is one of those “small price, frequent pain” ink purchases—£14.36 ex‑VAT is not outrageous, but it’s the kind of cost that adds up fast if you print a lot of colour. The upside is that Canon’s photo‑grade cyan tends to behave consistently in the right PIXMA/PRO‑style workflows (especially when you care about colour fidelity and don’t want your prints looking a bit off). If you’re doing periodic marketing pieces, proofs, or anything where the colour needs to look right rather than just “good enough,” paying for the genuine cartridge usually saves headaches—colour matching and reliability tend to be better than with cheaper substitutes.

That said, I wouldn’t buy this if you’re primarily printing text-heavy documents or you’re cost-focused on volume—inkjet costs can turn into a silent budget leak, and toner-style categories aside, you’ll feel it every time you need a replacement. If you’re in a small office doing occasional photo/colour output, it’s a sensible genuine option. If you’re printing lots of colour day-to-day, look at your usage and cost-per-page first (and consider whether your setup is actually the right type of printer for that workload).
