The Canon PIXMA TS8320 is a PIXMA TS-series all-in-one (print, scan, copy). This model carries the sixth Photo Blue slot, so its cartridge list includes the Photo Blue tank alongside the five standard tanks. In practice that means the running cost of this printer is decided tank by tank: the black you burn through on documents is not the ink your photos drink. Every tank is individual, so each color is replaced on its own schedule and genuine Canon and compatible tanks can be mixed slot by slot.

Chip, ink and everyday use

Whoever chose a TS8320 chose the extra Photo Blue slot, which marks this owner out as the household's photo printer. Looking after six tanks still follows a calm routine. Each cartridge carries a new compatible chip, so ink levels keep reporting to the TS8320. Pigment black takes text, and the dye tanks take color and photos. If a new cartridge is not recognized, reseat it until it clicks and restart the printer; if a message persists, wipe the gold chip contacts with a dry, lint-free cloth. Spare tanks stay sealed, standing upright, until a slot runs dry.
