At a glance
The Canon CLI681XXL Magenta is a genuine extra high yield ink cartridge for selected PIXMA printers, suited to home users and small offices that want dependable colour printing with fewer replacements. Its main strengths are consistent magenta output and a rated 760-page yield at 5% coverage. The trade-off is that it only fits specific Canon models, so compatibility needs checking before purchase.

Things to consider
While the XXL yield reduces cartridge changes, this is a single-colour cartridge for selected Canon PIXMA models only, so it is less flexible than broader-compatibility or higher-volume business print solutions.
Printer compatibility assessment
8/10 - Strong fit for selected Canon PIXMA TS and TR models, but compatibility is limited to supported printers only.
Page yield value score
8/10 - A 760-page yield at 5% coverage offers solid value for regular colour printing and fewer replacements than standard-yield options.
Ease of replacement rating
9/10 - Simple cartridge swap for compatible Canon inkjet printers, especially for users already running the CLI681 series.
Business vs home suitability
Best suited to home users and small offices needing dependable colour output; less ideal for very high-volume business print environments.
Key benefits
- Extra High Yield: Rated for 760 pages at 5% coverage, helping reduce cartridge changes on larger print runs.
- Genuine Canon Cartridge: Designed by Canon for reliable fit and consistent printing performance in compatible printers.
- Magenta Colour Output: Delivers the magenta ink needed for colour documents, graphics, and photo projects.
- Selected PIXMA Compatibility: Works with supported Canon PIXMA TS and TR series printers for straightforward replacement.
- Lower Replacement Frequency: The 760-page rating at 5% coverage can mean fewer interruptions than lower-yield cartridges.
- Home and Office Ready: Suitable for regular everyday printing across household, study, and small office use.
- Double-Sided Printing Support: Suitable for printers and workflows that use duplex printing for everyday documents.
- Photo Project Support: Well suited to colour-heavy tasks where consistent magenta tones matter for image quality.
Q: Will this cartridge fit every Canon PIXMA TS printer model?
A: No. CLI681XXLM fits selected Canon PIXMA TS and TR printers, not every PIXMA model. Documented matches include TS6160, TS8160, TS9160, TR7560 and TR8560, so check the exact printer model before ordering.
Q: Can I use it in printers that also need PGI-680?
A: Yes, on many compatible PIXMA printers the CLI-681 colour cartridges work alongside a separate PGI-680 black cartridge. Match the printer model exactly, because Canon cartridge families are not universal across all PIXMA machines.
Q: What does XXL mean on this Canon magenta cartridge?
A: XXL means this is the extra high yield version of Canon's magenta cartridge. Canon CLI681XXLM is rated for 760 pages at 5% coverage, so it suits buyers who print colour more regularly and want fewer cartridge changes.
Q: How long does the magenta ink last for photo printing?
A: Canon CLI681XXLM is rated for 760 pages at 5% coverage. That suits regular colour documents, but photo printing and graphics usually use more magenta per page, so the cartridge can run out sooner than the rating suggests.
Q: Can Canon CLI681XXL Magenta be refilled instead of replaced?
A: No. Canon CLI681XXLM is sold as a genuine replacement cartridge rather than a refill system. Refilled cartridges can affect print monitoring and output consistency, so this option is better for buyers who want original Canon fit and setup.
Q: Does this cartridge work with double-sided printing on compatible PIXMA models?
A: Yes, if the compatible printer itself supports duplex printing. The cartridge works with double-sided jobs, but duplex availability and paper handling still depend on the specific PIXMA model you install it in.
