How many postcard size photos I can print using a Canon Pixma CL-831 and a black cartridges?

I%26#039;m using PG-831 color and PG-40 black cartridges in my canon pixma printer. I wanna know, how many postcard size photos i can print by the use of those 2 cartridges.|||about 15





take the pics to a kodak print center you will save the cost of the ink and the were and tear on the printer. Photoes will kill a printer fast.|||Not many. Ink is measured in % of coverage. The industry standard is 5% which is a standard letter. Bunched up together that is about 1/3 of a full page and then you have all the white bits in between.





If you printing postcard size picture most of the surface will be covered. If you think that say a cartridge that says it will do 300 pages is referring to 5% coverage so full sheets of text it will be nearer to just 100 and still it will have loads of white in between the line and margins etc then full coverage of something even 1/3rd of an A4 sheet (your postcards) is not going to yield that many. As the first answerer said, it%26#039;s cheaper to get them done professionally.
