What is the difference between dye-based and pigment-based ink?
The CLI-481 is a dye-based ink, which is ideal for photographic printing because it provides more vibrant colors and higher glossiness on photo paper. Pigment inks (like the GI-41 Black you might use) are typically better for sharp, durable document text.

How do I install the cartridge safely?
The cartridge is designed for “click-in” installation. Ensure the protective orange cap is removed before inserting it into the designated yellow slot. The printer’s internal sensors will automatically recognize the genuine chip to monitor ink levels.
