At a glance
The Canon PGI1600XL Yellow Ink Cartridge is a high-yield replacement cartridge for selected Canon MAXIFY printers, designed for home offices and small businesses with regular colour printing needs. Its main strengths are the up to 900-page yield, separate colour replacement, and reduced change frequency. A limitation is that it only works with specific MAXIFY models, so it is not a universal Canon cartridge.

Things to consider
This cartridge is limited to selected Canon MAXIFY printers, so buyers with other Canon or mixed-brand devices will need a different cartridge option.
Printer compatibility assessment
9/10 - Strong fit for listed Canon MAXIFY MB2060, MB2160, MB2360 and MB2760 models, but not suitable for printers outside this range.
Page yield value score
8/10 - Up to 900 pages is a solid high-yield result for regular yellow printing in home office and small business use.
Ease of replacement rating
9/10 - Individual colour replacement makes it simple and cost-conscious to swap only the depleted yellow cartridge.
Business vs home suitability
Best suited to home offices and small businesses that print colour documents regularly, while still practical for higher-use home setups.
Key benefits
- High Yield: Prints up to 900 pages, helping reduce replacement frequency in regular colour printing routines.
- Individual Yellow Cartridge: Lets you replace only the yellow ink when needed instead of changing a full colour set.
- XL Capacity: Holds more ink than the standard version for longer intervals between cartridge changes.
- MAXIFY Compatibility: Designed for Canon MAXIFY MB2060, MB2160, MB2360 and MB2760 printers for straightforward matching.
- Business-Ready Output Volume: Better suited to recurring office colour tasks than lower-yield standard cartridges.
- Practical Replacement Cycle: Up to 900-page yield supports fewer interruptions during larger print runs.
Q: Which Canon printers is the PGI-1600XL Yellow cartridge compatible with?
A: This cartridge is listed as suitable for Canon MAXIFY MB2060, MB2160, MB2360 and MB2760 printers. It is designed for models that use the PGI-1600 ink series, so it should not be bought for Canon PIXMA or other MAXIFY ranges that use different cartridge numbers.
Q: Can the Canon PGI-1600XL Yellow be used if the printer normally takes PGI-1600 cartridges?
A: Yes, if the printer uses the PGI-1600 series, the XL version is the high-yield option for the same cartridge family. The main difference is more ink for longer printing between replacements, not a different printer fit.
Q: Why choose the PGI-1600XL Yellow instead of a standard-yield cartridge?
A: The XL version is made for higher page output before replacement, which suits frequent colour printing in a home office or small business. That can mean fewer cartridge changes and a lower cost per page than a standard-yield option.
Q: Do you need to replace all colours when only the yellow cartridge runs out?
A: No, this is an individual yellow cartridge, so it can be replaced on its own when that colour is depleted. That is useful if yellow runs down faster in charts, graphics or marketing pages, because the other cartridges can stay in use.
Q: Is a genuine Canon PGI-1600XL Yellow better than a compatible cartridge for these MAXIFY printers?
A: A genuine Canon cartridge is made for Canon MAXIFY printers and is the safer choice if consistent recognition, print quality and reliability matter most. Compatible cartridges can cost less, but performance and colour matching may vary between brands.
