BJ Cartridge Guidelines
You can use these cartridges with the printer:
❍
BC-21e Color BJ Cartridge
Contains the print head unit and two replaceable
BJ tanks—the BCI-21 Color BJ Tank contains color ink
(cyan, magenta, yellow) and the BCI-21 Black BJ Tank
contains black ink. You can replace the BJ tanks without
replacing the print head unit when you run out of ink.
❍
BC-22e Photo BJ Cartridge
Contains the print head unit and color and black inks. Use
this cartridge when you want to produce photo-quality
color printing. When used with Canon’s High Resolution
Paper or Glossy Photo Paper, this ink produces images
comparable to your favorite photographs. When you run
out of ink, you replace the complete cartridge.
❍
BC-23 Enhanced Black BJ Cartridge
Contains the print head unit and black ink only. When
you run out of ink, you replace the complete cartridge.

holders are labeled 1 and 2.
