Canon Pixma MP990 – a photo-focused all‑in‑one that deserves the right ink
If you use the Canon Pixma MP990 (also searched as Canon MP990 or Canon MP900 Series), you already know it’s a versatile inkjet printer built for sharp documents and impressive photos. This model uses a pigment black cartridge for crisp text and dye-based colour cartridges for smooth gradients in images—so choosing the right ink for Canon Pixma MP990 has a direct impact on print quality, reliability, and cost per page.
What ink cartridges does Canon Pixma MP990 use?
The Canon Pixma MP990 works with the popular PGI-520 and CLI-521 cartridge family (often identified by codes such as 3749B002 and the individual part numbers). In practice, that means:
PGI-520 BK – pigment black for clean, readable text and strong line definition
CLI-521 colours – dye inks for vivid photos: Cyan, Magenta, Yellow, plus Photo Black and Gray depending on your configuration
In our category you’ll find both Original OEM cartridges and carefully selected compatible ink cartridges for Canon Pixma MP990—so you can match your purchase to your printing style and budget without compromising results.
Print quality, everyday performance, and where this ink shines
Whether you print invoices, school materials, or photo albums, the right ink for Canon MP990 helps keep colours consistent and text razor-sharp. The MP990 is often used for:
Home and home-office printing (letters, forms, contracts)
Colour presentations and graphics
Photo printing where smooth tonal transitions matter
Pigment black (PGI) is typically chosen for document durability and clarity, while the CLI colour set supports rich, glossy-looking photo output. If you print photos regularly, replacing individual colours in time is important—running a cartridge too low can affect colour balance and lead to extra cleaning cycles.

How to choose the best ink for Canon Pixma MP990
When selecting ink for printer Canon Pixma MP990, we recommend focusing on three things: your print type, cost expectations, and convenience.
If you print mostly text: consider stocking up on PGI-520 BK (pigment black), including twin packs.
If you print photos and colour graphics: ensure you have a stable set of CLI-521 colours (C/M/Y and Photo Black; optionally Gray for smoother tonal transitions).
If you want fewer interruptions: pick a multi pack so you replace inks proactively and keep colour balance consistent.
Original OEM vs compatible ink cartridges: OEM cartridges are produced by the printer manufacturer and are a straightforward choice for users who want to stick to original supplies. At the same time, our compatible ink cartridges for Canon MP990 are designed to deliver results that are as good as the originals—sharp text, vibrant colour, and dependable everyday performance—while offering a more budget-friendly way to print.
Common MP990 user issues – and how the right cartridge helps
The Canon Pixma MP990 is reliable, but like many inkjet printers it may occasionally require routine attention. Customers often ask us about:
Faded prints or wrong colours: usually linked to an empty/near-empty cartridge or an imbalanced colour set—replacing the specific CLI-521 colour often solves it.
Streaks or missing lines: can appear when ink is running low or after long inactivity—keeping fresh ink on hand helps reduce repeated cleaning cycles.
Frequent black ink usage: common in home-office work—choosing a PGI-520 BK twin pack or a compatible multipack can lower cost per page.
