Frequently Asked Questions

Nobody noticed the yellow going — until the greens turned blue. Why does that happen?

Yellow is the quietest cartridge in any colour printer. It rarely shouts in a print the way red or blue does; it works underneath, warming colours and building every green. So when the 054HY fades, nothing looks dramatically broken — the greens just slide toward blue, pages feel colder, and yellows print pale. By the time anyone notices, the cartridge has usually been running on fumes for a while.

How many pages is this cartridge rated for?

The 054HY is the high-yield yellow of the Canon 054H range, rated at about 2,300 pages. Because yellow is drawn on lightly in most documents, that rating translates into a long stay in the machine for typical offices — frequently the longest-lived of the three colours.

What does it cost per page?

At $31.23 for roughly 2,300 pages, about 1.36¢ per page. Set that against the standard Canon 054 yellow: identical money at $31.23, but a 1,200-page rating and roughly 2.60¢ a page. We list both cartridges and the same comparison appears on both pages, because the high-yield version wins it plainly.

Do the other cartridges need changing with it?

No. Yellow, the 054HC cyan and the 054HM magenta are separate units on separate schedules, and black — the 054HK — is separate again. When the yellow is done, change the yellow. A printer that makes you swap a full set when one colour empties is wasting your money; this range does not.

Is this cartridge made by Canon?

No — it is a compatible 054HY built to match Canon's cartridge number and high-yield class. The cover behind it is ours: a 1-year warranty with 1-year free returns on every cartridge we ship.

What happens if it turns out to be faulty?

Send it back under the warranty — faulty cartridges return free within the year, per the policy on our shipping & returns page. If you would rather talk first, support answers Monday to Friday, 9 AM–5 PM CST.
