Four cartridges are needed for this printer – black, cyan, magenta and yellow. The cartridges are fairly inexpensive to replace, costing around £8 per cartridge from most outlets for the Canon brand, however cheaper compatible cartridges can be bought for around £3.
They are very easy to replace, lift...
