The Canon PF-05 Print Head is a genuine replacement print head for Canon imagePROGRAF large format printers.

The print head is the part that places every drop of ink on the page, so when nozzles wear out, fitting a new Canon PF-05 Print Head restores sharp lines, smooth fills and accurate colour on plans, posters and proofs. As a genuine Canon part, it is designed to work with Canon imagePROGRAF inks and printer settings.

Why choose the genuine Canon PF-05 Print Head?

These are the practical benefits of a genuine Canon PF-05 over a third-party print head:

  • Restores print quality. A new genuine print head brings back fine lines, smooth gradients and consistent colour.
  • Designed for imagePROGRAF. Canon print heads are engineered for the printer’s ink system and nozzle layout.
  • Reliable error-free operation. The printer recognises a genuine print head and calibrates it correctly.
  • Protects your investment. Using genuine parts keeps a high-value large format printer running to specification.

It suits imagePROGRAF users whose printer reports a print head fault or shows banding that cleaning no longer fixes.

How long does it last?

Print heads aren’t rated in pages. The Canon PF-05 Print Head lasts until nozzle performance drops, which depends on print volume, ink use and maintenance. Most users replace it only when nozzle checks keep showing gaps after cleaning. Our price is $651.70 including GST.

Get the most from your Canon PF-05 Print Head

  • Run a nozzle check before cleaning so you only clean when needed.
  • Use the right media setting for each roll or sheet to avoid head strikes.
  • Avoid leaving the printer switched off for long periods.
  • Keep media dust-free, as debris can affect nozzles.
  • Calibrate head alignment after installing a new print head.

How to install the Canon PF-05 Print Head

  1. Follow the replace print head procedure in the printer’s maintenance menu; the carriage moves to the replacement position.
  2. Open the top cover and the print head locking cover as instructed on screen.
  3. Remove the old print head and place it in the packaging for recycling.
  4. Remove the protective caps from the new print head without touching the nozzles or contacts, then insert it and close the locking cover.
  5. Close the top cover and let the printer fill the head with ink and run alignment.

Steps vary slightly between models, so check your printer’s manual or the instruction sheet inside the box if anything looks different when fitting the Canon PF-05 Print Head.

Troubleshooting tips

If the Canon PF-05 Print Head isn’t printing as expected after installation, these quick checks solve most problems:

  • Print head error after installing: Re-seat the print head, check the locking cover is fully closed, and restart the printer.
  • Missing lines in nozzle check: Run a cleaning cycle, then another nozzle check. New heads may need one cleaning after ink fill.
  • Colour banding: Run the printer’s head alignment and calibration from the maintenance menu.

Looking after your printer between cartridge changes

  • Use only genuine Canon inks to protect the print head nozzles.
  • Print regularly and keep the printer powered on standby for automatic maintenance.
  • Run nozzle checks before long or important print runs.
  • Keep the printer in a stable, dust-free environment within normal humidity.
  • Replace ink tanks promptly when they run empty.

Storage, handling and recycling

To keep a spare Canon PF-05 Print Head in top condition until you need it:

  • Keep it sealed. Store the print head in its sealed packaging until installation.
  • Don’t touch nozzles. Hold it by the handle, away from nozzles and electrical contacts.
  • Store at room temperature. Avoid heat, frost and humidity.
  • Recycle the old head. Return used heads through a cartridge recycling program.

Canon Australia supports free cartridge recycling through Cartridges 4 Planet Ark, so your empty PF-05 can be dropped at a participating store instead of going to landfill. For full product information, visit Canon Australia.

Genuine vs compatible cartridges

Compatible cartridges can cost less up front, but quality varies a lot between brands. The Canon PF-05 Print Head is made by Canon for these printers, is covered by Canon’s manufacturer warranty against defects, in addition to your rights under Australian Consumer Law, and is designed to deliver its rated yield. Our article on OEM vs compatible printer cartridges compares the two in more detail.

Every cartridge we sell under the Genuine label is brand new and sealed in Canon retail packaging. If you’re ever unsure whether a cartridge is authentic, check the box for Canon’s security label and an intact factory seal, and buy from a supplier that lists the Canon part number.

Delivery, warranty and returns

When you order the Canon PF-05 Print Head from us, it ships from stock in its sealed Canon box. We’re an Australian-owned supplier based in Moorebank, NSW. Orders are usually processed within 1–2 business days and shipped for a flat $19.99 anywhere in Australia, with standard delivery generally taking 3–7 business days after dispatch. See our shipping policy, returns policy and warranty policy for details, or browse more genuine Canon ink cartridges. Questions about compatibility? Contact our team before you order, and we’ll confirm the Canon PF-05 Print Head is right for your machine.

Canon PF-05 Print Head FAQs

Is this Canon PF-05 Print Head genuine Canon?

Yes. It’s a brand-new, genuine Canon cartridge supplied in sealed Canon retail packaging, not a compatible or remanufactured product.

Which printers use the PF-05?

It suits the Canon imagePROGRAF iPF6300, Canon imagePROGRAF iPF6300S, Canon imagePROGRAF iPF6350 and 8 more models. Check the full compatibility list above before ordering.

What is the Canon part number?

Look for the code PF-05 on the cartridge label or box.

How much does delivery cost?

Delivery is a flat $19.99 per order within Australia, no matter how many items you buy, and generally arrives 3–7 business days after dispatch.

Do you deliver to regional and remote areas?

Yes. We ship to every Australian state and territory at the same flat rate. Remote addresses can take a little longer. We don’t currently ship internationally.

Will I get tracking?

Yes. Tracking details are emailed to you once your order is dispatched, where the courier provides them.

Can I return it if I change my mind?

Yes, let us know within 30 days of delivery. The cartridge needs to be unopened and unused, and change-of-mind return shipping is paid by the customer. Approved refunds are processed within 7 business days.

What if my PF-05 is faulty?

Contact us with your order number and a short description of the problem, plus photos if you can. We cover return shipping for faulty products and will arrange a replacement or refund in line with Australian Consumer Law.

When should I replace the PF-05?

Replace it when the printer reports a print head error, or when nozzle checks continue to show gaps after cleaning.

Do I need to align the head after installing?

Yes. Run the printer’s head alignment after fitting a new print head for the best quality.

Can I reuse the old print head?

Once a print head has failed or been replaced, it should be recycled rather than reinstalled.

Why does installing a new print head use ink?

A new print head is shipped empty, so the printer fills it with ink from the installed tanks during setup. Make sure every tank has a reasonable amount of ink left before you start the replacement, so the fill can complete without interruption.
