To keep this printer performing at its best, you need reliable ink cartridges for Canon Pixma iP8700—and that’s exactly what we offer in both Original OEM and carefully selected compatible versions. What makes ink for Canon iP8700 different? The iP8700 uses a cartridge set built around the PGI-550 pigment black (for crisp text) and the CLI-551 dye colours (for smooth photo tones).

When you choose the right ink for Canon Pixma iP8700, you get: - High detail and accurate colour for photo prints and creative projects
- Deep blacks for text and contrast (PGI-550)
- Smooth colour transitions and natural skin tones (CLI-551 set)
- Consistent results across everyday printing and demanding photo work

Compatible and Original OEM – a wide choice in one place In our store, we make it easy to match your needs and budget. You can pick Original OEM Canon cartridges for maximum brand consistency, or choose our proven compatible ink cartridges—a smart alternative that delivers results as good as originals, while keeping printing costs under control.

We also stock single XL colours such as CLI-551 C XL (Cyan), CLI-551 M XL (Magenta), CLI-551 Y XL (Yellow) and CLI-551 G XL (Gray), in both compatible and Original OEM versions, so you can replace only what you’ve used up. How to choose the right ink cartridge for Canon Pixma iP8700 Start with two quick checks: the cartridge symbol and the capacity. The iP8700 typically uses PGI-550 for black text and CLI-551 for photo colours (including Photo Black and Gray, important for neutral shadows and monochrome prints). If you print a lot, consider XL cartridges to reduce replacement frequency. - For photos and colour work: choose CLI-551 colour cartridges (C/M/Y + Photo Black + Gray depending on your needs)
- For documents and sharp text: PGI-550 Black is essential, and XL is often the most cost-effective
- For balanced printing: multipacks help keep your whole set ready
Original OEM vs compatible – what’s the real difference? Original OEM ink for Canon Pixma iP8700 is produced by Canon and is often chosen by users who prefer staying with the printer brand for every replacement.

Common iP8700 printing issues – and how the right ink helps Users of photo printers like the iP8700 sometimes encounter problems that are often ink-related or cartridge-related. Choosing fresh, properly matched ink cartridges for Canon Pixma iP8700 helps prevent many of them: - Streaks or missing lines: often linked to depleted cartridges or printing after long breaks—replace the low colour and run maintenance if needed
- Colours not matching expectations: mixing old and new cartridges or running a colour dry can affect output—keep a full set ready
