Ink cartridges for Canon Pixma MX880 - compatible and original OEM

If you use a Canon Pixma MX880 (also searched as Canon MX880, Canon MX800 Series or simply MX880), you already know why this model has stayed popular for years: it’s a reliable all‑in‑one designed for everyday home and small office work. It prints crisp documents, handles photo printing surprisingly well, and keeps up with scanning and copying without fuss. To keep that quality consistent, choosing the right ink for Canon Pixma MX880 matters—especially when you want predictable results and smooth operation.

Ink for Canon Pixma MX880 – what it’s used for and why the right cartridge matters

The MX880 uses a well-known cartridge set: PGI‑525 BK for sharp, dense text and CLI‑526 inks for colour and photo work (including CLI‑526 BK for photo black and CLI‑526 G for grey tones). With the right ink cartridge for Canon MX880, you can expect:

• clean, readable text for invoices, forms and school documents,
• natural colour reproduction for presentations and everyday colour prints,
• smoother grayscale transitions in photos thanks to the grey cartridge,
• stable performance for frequent printing—without constant interruptions.

Whether you print occasionally or daily, selecting the correct ink for MX880 helps reduce smudging, colour imbalance and unnecessary maintenance cycles.

Compatible and Original OEM ink cartridges – one printer, two smart options

In this category we offer both Original OEM cartridges and carefully selected Compatible cartridges. Original OEM ink is made by the printer manufacturer and is a straightforward choice for those who prefer to stay with factory solutions.

At the same time, our compatible ink cartridges for Canon Pixma MX880 are designed to deliver results that are just as good as the originals—clear text, strong blacks and vivid colours—while helping you control printing costs. If you print a lot (or you simply don’t want to overpay per page), compatible cartridges are a practical everyday choice.

How to choose the right ink cartridge for Canon Pixma MX880

When you select ink for printer Canon Pixma MX880, we recommend focusing on three things:

• Your printing profile – lots of documents usually means you’ll replace PGI‑525 BK more often; photos and colour graphics will use more CLI‑526 colours.
• Buying convenience – multipacks are ideal if you want fewer orders and a ready-to-go spare set at home.
• Preference: OEM vs compatible – OEM is the manufacturer’s original; our compatible cartridges are a cost-effective alternative with quality comparable to OEM.

If you are unsure which cartridge you need (for example: Canon MX800 Series devices can look similar), use the model phrases listed on the page—Canon Pixma MX880, Canon MX880, Canon MX800 Series, MX880—and match the cartridge symbol: PGI‑525 or CLI‑526.

Common user issues with the MX880 – and how the right ink helps

Users of the Canon Pixma MX880 most often report everyday issues such as uneven colours after long breaks in printing, “missing” lines in text, or confusion about which black cartridge to replace (text black PGI‑525 BK vs photo black CLI‑526 BK). The good news: these situations are usually easy to manage with the correct replacement cartridge and regular printing habits.

If you print rarely, consider keeping a spare set at home and printing a quick test page from time to time. If you print often, multipacks can help you avoid downtime—especially when a single colour runs out unexpectedly mid‑project.
