Canon CLI-36-compatible printers will print varying amounts of black and white and color pages from the ink cartridge, depending on the printer technology. For example, the Canon iP100 can print up to 191 black and white pages and 249 color pages, while the HP Officejet H470 printer can print up to 440 black and white pages and 330 color pages, according to PC Magazine. The number of pages a cartridge prints depends on variable factors such as image density, image size and image quality. Software that comes with the printer provides information about approximately how much ink remains in the cartridge, as revealed by a chip connected to the cartridge.
Color Ink
-
A Canon CLI 36 inkjet cartridge contains 12.5 ml of ink. You may not need to print every document in full color, depending on the nature of the document and what you intend to use it for. For example, if you are printing out a casual email reminder, you may only need to print it in black and white to get the basic information, using the CLI-35 black ink cartridge. The printer’s companion CLI-35 cartridge contains 9.5 ml of ink. By not printing out the page’s colorful decorations, you will conserve color ink.

Resolution
-
You can set your Canon CLI-36-compatible printer to print documents in different resolutions, such as a lower-resolution draft mode, which you can use to save ink when you need to preview and proofread a color document. Using higher-resolution mode, which requires more ink, is suitable when you want to print a high-quality photo or the final version of any color document.
Compatibility
-
Canon created the CLI-36 color ink cartridge initially to use with Canon’s Pixma iP100 printer. The Pixma iP100 is a mobile printer designed for people who need to print color photos while they’re on the go from a PC, laptop, PDA or a smartphone. Other printers that are compatible with the CLI-36 cartridge include Canon’s Pixma Mini260, the Pixma Mini320 and the RFB IP100.
