Canon Pixma MG8170 – a photo-friendly all‑in‑one that deserves the right ink

Canon Pixma MG8170 (also searched as Canon MG8170 or Canon MG8000 Series) is a premium inkjet multifunction printer designed for sharp documents and impressive home photo printing. With a multi-cartridge system based on PGI-525 and CLI-526 inks (including a dedicated gray), this model can deliver smooth gradients, deep blacks and vivid colours—provided you choose the right ink cartridges for Canon Pixma MG8170.

What ink cartridges for Canon MG8170 do and why they matter

Ink for Canon Pixma MG8170 is not “just ink”—it’s the key to consistent colour, crisp text and reliable nozzle performance. The MG8170 typically uses pigment black (PGI-525 BK) for documents and dye-based colours (CLI-526) for photos. That’s why many users keep both types in mind: pigment black for sharp office-like prints and dye colours for glossy, vibrant images.

Choosing the right ink cartridge for MG8170 helps you:

• print clear text without smudging (especially with PGI-525 BK),
• get accurate colour reproduction for photos and graphics (the CLI-526 set),
• avoid banding and colour shifts thanks to stable ink formulation,
• reduce interruptions by selecting multipacks matched to your printing style.

Compatible and Original OEM – one category, two smart ways to print

How to choose the best ink for Canon Pixma MG8170

Dear Customer, the fastest way to pick the right ink cartridge for Canon Pixma MG8170 is to match the symbol printed on your current cartridge: PGI-525 or CLI-526, and then select the colour. If you print photos often, don’t forget the CLI-526 G (Gray) cartridge—this printer uses it to create smoother shadows and more natural black-and-white prints.

When choosing between Original OEM and Compatible ink for MG8170, consider:

• Printing volume: for frequent printing, compatible multipacks can significantly reduce running costs.
• Type of prints: for mixed home/office printing, a set with PGI-525 BK + CLI-526 colours is the most practical.
• Convenience: multipacks help you avoid “one colour ran out” surprises.

Common MG8170 printing issues – and how the right cartridge helps

Like many photo inkjets, Canon MG8170 can occasionally show issues such as faded colours after long breaks, missing lines, or uneven gradients. In most cases, the cause is simply an empty cartridge, an ink that has aged in the printer, or a long period without printing. Replacing ink cartridges for Canon MG8170 in time and keeping a complete set (especially photo colours and gray) helps maintain stable output. If you’re unsure which cartridge is responsible—black text usually points to PGI-525 BK, while photo tones and colour casts often indicate one of the CLI-526 cartridges.
