The Clever Supplies compatible Canon PGI-220 / CLI-221 Set of 5 brings together 1 × PGI-220 Black; 1 × CLI-221 Black; 1 × CLI-221 Cyan; 1 × CLI-221 Magenta; 1 × CLI-221 Yellow — every cartridge individually sealed and chipped. It fits 10 verified printers: Canon PIXMA iP3600, Canon PIXMA iP4600, Canon PIXMA iP4700 and 7 more are in the full list under Compatible Printers below.
This set belongs to the PGI-220 / CLI-221 family — a five-tank system — pigment PGI-220 black for documents beside dye CLI-221 black, cyan, magenta and yellow — with a sixth Gray tank on the MP980 and MP990 for black-and-white photo printing. Canon never published an official page-yield table for this family, so the ratings printed here are the cartridge supplier's figures, quoted exactly as supplied. Covered by our lifetime warranty with free returns for the first year.

Frequently Asked Questions
What am I getting in this set?
The set contains 1 × PGI-220 Black (up to 350 pages); 1 × CLI-221 Black (up to 342 pages); 1 × CLI-221 Cyan (up to 500 pages); 1 × CLI-221 Magenta (up to 500 pages); 1 × CLI-221 Yellow (up to 500 pages). One full row of tanks — a complete change for every slot at once.
Which printers does this set belong to?
Ten verified models, including the Canon PIXMA iP3600, Canon PIXMA iP4600, Canon PIXMA iP4700 and Canon PIXMA MP560, all listed under Compatible Printers on this page. If your machine has five separate tank slots and one of these badges, this set is its full refresh.
Why does this printer need two blacks?
Because it prints two kinds of black work. The PGI-220 pigment black makes documents — crisp and water-resistant. The CLI-221 dye black works with the three colors for photographs, where smooth blending matters. The printer switches between them by job type without asking you to think about it.
What does a full-row change cost per page?
The five tanks total the set's combined rated yield, so $26.18 buys a whole row at a very low cost per page. Individual tanks are where compatible pricing bites hardest: a complete row for the price of a single original tank or two, with no slot left running on fumes.
When should I change all five at once instead of one at a time?
When the row is uniformly tired — a printer new to you, one rescued from a cupboard, or output that has faded across every color at once. A simultaneous change gives you a known-good baseline in one session. Day to day, though, this platform is built for single-tank swaps as each color empties.
How do I fit the row correctly?
With the printer on, open the cover and let the tank bay present itself. Each tank is labeled and keyed to its slot; press the release, lift the old tank out, and seat the new one until it clicks, working slot by slot. Keep the chip contacts clean and do not force a tank that resists — reseat it instead.
Can I keep one of my old Canon tanks in the row?
Yes. Slots are independent and brand-blind, so a genuine tank can run beside these compatibles in any combination. Owners commonly let a healthy original finish its life in the row and convert slot by slot; the printer tracks each tank by its chip either way.
Are these tanks made by Canon?
They are not. This set is a Clever Supplies compatible product, matched to the PGI-220 and CLI-221 tanks in dimensions, chip and rated fill. It is an open alternative to Canon's own tanks, and priced to be one.
What happens if a tank misbehaves?
The Lifetime Warranty judges each tank separately: a leak, a failure or defective output earns that tank a replacement or refund. You also have a 1-year returns window on the order, so even a complete-row experiment carries a way back.
Is the five-piece set enough, or should I stock the twelve?
That depends on your rhythm. The five-piece set is a full change with nothing spare; the twelve-piece adds a second color round and extra blacks for weekly printers, and its per-page price makes it the natural shelf stock for busy machines.
