Canon PGI-555PGBK XXL High Yield Pigment Black Ink Cartridge

Product Overview

AI-generated summary

If you’ve got a Canon printer that takes the PGI-555PGBK XXL, this is the kind of ink cartridge that actually makes sense for day-to-day business printing. The “high yield” angle is where the value usually shows up: fewer swaps, less downtime, and a lower cost per page than standard cartridges—especially if you print lots of text or receipts/contracts. Pigment black is also a decent fit for documents you want to last and look crisp, which matters in a B2B environment where pages get filed, scanned, or handed to clients.

That said, I wouldn’t buy it if your printing is occasional. Pigment ink can dry out or clog if the printer sits unused, and then you end up paying for cartridges that don’t get fully utilised. Also, the price you quoted (£21.24 ex-VAT) is only “good” if it’s genuinely aligned with your printer’s yield in your workflow—if you print mostly colour or only the odd page, you’ll waste money versus buying smaller, more frequently used options. Bottom line: worth it for offices with regular black printing; not worth it for light-use setups.
