Canon PIXMA TS4320
The Canon PIXMA TS4320 is a compact wireless home all-in-one — the current TS shape, small footprint, phone-first printing — and it runs on the PG-295 and CL-286 FINE family. Stocked here is the color cartridge, the CL-286XL tri-color, rated for up to 400 pages. The black position takes PG-295 or PG-295XL cartridges; Canon has not yet published their page yields, and no compatible cartridge is sold for those codes yet.
Value on the TS4320 starts with how few parts wear out separately: black and tri-color are the whole system, and the printhead arrives inside each cartridge. A printer that has stood idle for a year therefore usually needs ink, not workshop time, to print again. That economy holds only with the correct codes — cartridges from other Canon families may look the same on the shelf, but this printer will not recognize them.

Which cartridge should you buy?
One cartridge ran out is the whole decision tree here — and if it is the color side, the CL-286XL is the replacement: up to 400 pages from the tri-color position, against up to 180 from the standard CL-286. For black, match the PG-295 or PG-295XL code exactly; with yields still unpublished by Canon, the code is the specification to trust. When in doubt, read the code off the cartridge you remove rather than the box the printer came in.
Chip, ink and everyday use
Streaky printing does not have to mean a service bill on the TS4320: the printhead is built into the cartridge rather than the printer, so every cartridge change renews it, and output problems on this platform are a cartridge matter. Each cartridge carries a new compatible chip, so ink levels are reported normally, while pigment black serves documents and dye tri-color serves photos. Store spares sealed, upright and out of sunlight, and open the pack only when the printer asks for the cartridge.
Frequently Asked Questions
What ink does the PIXMA TS4320 use?
The PG-295 and CL-286 family — PG-295 or PG-295XL black, CL-286 or CL-286XL tri-color. The cartridge sold here is the CL-286XL, rated for up to 400 pages.
Why isn't a black cartridge listed for this model?
Canon has not yet published page yields for the PG-295 black cartridges, and no compatible cartridge is sold for those codes yet. The tri-color side is covered by the CL-286XL, a Clever Supplies compatible with our Lifetime Warranty.
How many pages does the CL-286XL give the TS4320?
Up to 400 pages, compared with up to 180 pages from the standard CL-286 — the XL is the better fit for photo printing and busy school-project seasons.
My TS4320 has not printed in a year. Where do I start?
With ink. Because each cartridge brings a fresh printhead with it, replacing the cartridge is the usual way an idle FINE printer returns to clean output — try that before any repair route.
