Choosing the Best Cartridge
Canon offers several BJ print cartridges and ink tanks for use in the
MultiPASS C50. (BJ print cartridges contain the BJ print head and ink,
while BJ ink tanks contain only ink.) Use the following descriptions to
decide which type of cartridge best suits your particular needs.
To avoid printing problems, use only the BC-20 or BC-21/21e BJ
cartridges for normal printing. The BC-22/22e Photo Colour BJ
Cartridge (sold separately) is for printing photo-realistic colour images.
Other cartridges can produce unsatisfactory results. In addition, use
only BCI-21 Black and BCI-21 Colour ink tanks in the BC-21/21e Colour
BJ cartridge.
BC-20 Black BJ Cartridge
This cartridge incorporates a BJ print head and
black ink in a single unit. The BC
-20 can be
used if most of your printing is black, e.g. for
receiving faxes, making copies, and
monochrome printing. It can print twice as fast
as a colour cartridge, and at higher resolution.
BC-21/21e Colour BJ Cartridge
The BC-21/21e incorporates a BJ print head and
two replaceable ink tanks (a BCI-21 Black and a
BCI-21 Colour). Use this cartridge when
printing in colour.
BCI-21 Black ink tank
Purchase this ink tank from your local Canon
dealer as the black ink runs out of the
BC-21/21e Colour BJ cartridge.
BCI-21 Colour ink tank
Purchase this ink tank from your local Canon
dealer as the colour ink runs out of the
BC-21/21e Colour BJ cartridge.
