Canon PFI-5100 Multipack ink cartridge 10 pc(s) Original Standard Yield Cyan, Matte black, Black

Product Overview

AI-generated summary

For £126.40 ex‑VAT, Canon’s PFI‑5100 10‑pack is “only a good deal” if you’re actively running a compatible Canon large‑format printer and actually use all of these colours/black variants regularly. Original cartridges are generally painless: they behave, print consistently, and you avoid the kind of colour shifts or clogging headaches you sometimes get with cheaper compatibles. If you care about predictable output for client work (posters, CAD prints, proofing that has to match), this multipack makes sense because it reduces downtime and the price-per-cartridge is usually better than buying single replacements.

That said, if your print volume is low or you don’t need both black types often, this is easy to overbuy. Ink sits there until you use it, and the total spend is real even if only one or two cartridges will go first. Also, if you’re mostly doing quick internal drafts where “good enough” is fine, you’ll likely get better value going single cartridges on demand (or looking for alternatives) rather than paying upfront for a full pack.

**Who should buy:** shops/teams with steady large‑format usage, consistent jobs, and a “keep the printer working” priority—especially if colour accuracy matters. **Who should think twice:** light users, people who only print occasionally, or anyone trying to minimise cost per month rather than per cartridge.
