Canon TX-3200 Supplies FAQ - Expert Answers
What's the difference between PFI-310 and PFI-710 ink cartridges for my TX-3200?
PFI-310 cartridges contain 330ml of ink, while PFI-710 cartridges hold 700ml - more than double the capacity. The PFI-710 series reduces cost per print by approximately 15% and minimizes workflow interruptions. Both use identical LUCIA TD pigment formulations, ensuring consistent quality. High-volume offices printing 100+ sheets weekly should choose PFI-710 for better economics.
Why does the Canon TX-3200 use both Matte Black (MBK) and Black (BK) inks?
The dual-black system optimizes print quality across different media types. Matte Black (MBK) delivers superior density on plain and matte papers, perfect for CAD line work. Regular Black (BK) provides deeper blacks on coated and glossy media. The TX-3200 automatically selects the appropriate black based on your media settings, ensuring optimal results without manual switching.
How long do Canon TX-3200 ink cartridges last in storage?
Sealed Canon PFI-310/710 cartridges remain viable for 24 months from the manufacture date when stored between 59-77°F in a dry environment. Check the expiration date printed on each cartridge box. Once installed, use within 6 months for optimal performance. We rotate stock regularly to ensure you receive the freshest cartridges with maximum shelf life.
When should I replace the maintenance cartridge MC-30 in my TX-3200?
The MC-30 maintenance cartridge collects waste ink and typically requires replacement every 6-12 months. Your TX-3200's display will show the remaining capacity percentage. For planning purposes: light users (under 50 prints/week) get 10-12 months, moderate users (50-200 prints/week) need replacement every 6-8 months, and heavy users should stock extras for 4-6 month intervals.
Can I mix OEM and third-party supplies in my Canon TX-3200?
We strongly advise using only genuine Canon supplies in your TX-3200. Third-party inks can cause color shifts, clogging, print head damage, voided warranty claims, and inconsistent results, all of which can cost over $800. The minor savings rarely justify the risks, especially for professional applications where color accuracy and reliability are critical. Protect your investment with OEM supplies.
What's included in a Canon TX-3200 starter ink set?
A complete Canon TX-3200 starter set includes five ink cartridges: PFI-310 MBK (Matte Black), PFI-310 BK (Black), PFI-310 C (Cyan), PFI-310 M (Magenta), and PFI-310 Y (Yellow). New printer packages include starter cartridges with reduced capacity (165ml). We recommend ordering full-capacity replacements to have ready when starter inks deplete.
