Canon PFI-3700 PGY Photo Grey Ink Tank — 700 ml LUCIA PRO II
PFI-3700 PGY700 mlLUCIA PRO II pigmentimagePROGRAF PRO-2600/4600/6600
The Canon 6453C001 is the original PFI-3700 PGY Photo Grey ink tank: 700 ml of LUCIA PRO II pigment ink for Canon imagePROGRAF PRO-2600/4600/6600 large-format printers. Photo Grey is one of the two grey inks in the 12-colour set and gives neutral black-and-white prints and smooth highlight detail.
The 700 ml tank is the largest of the three sizes Canon makes for this ink (PFI-3100 PGY 160 ml, PFI-3300 PGY 330 ml, PFI-3700 PGY 700 ml). The ink inside is the same; the bigger tank lowers the cost per millilitre and means fewer tank changes on busy printers.
Before you order: This tank fits only the 12-colour PRO-2600, PRO-4600 and PRO-6600. It does not fit the GP-2600S/4600S/6600S (no Photo Grey in their ink set) or the older PRO-2000/4000/6000 and PRO-2100/4100/6100, which use PFI-1700 PGY.
What's in the Box
- 1 × Canon PFI-3700 PGY Photo Grey ink tank, 700 ml
- Ink tank only — no printhead or maintenance cartridge
What It Means in Practice
- Volume: 700 ml, the largest tank size for LUCIA PRO II printers in this series.
- Ink type: LUCIA PRO II pigment ink, Canon's ink set for photo, fine-art and proof printing.
- Fits only the colour slot marked PGY on the printer.
- Smaller tanks of the same ink (PFI-3100 PGY 160 ml, PFI-3300 PGY 330 ml, PFI-3700 PGY 700 ml) can be mixed with 700 ml tanks on printers that accept them.
What Will Not Work
- imagePROGRAF PRO-2000/4000/6000 and PRO-2100/4100/6100 — they use PFI-1700 tanks
- imagePROGRAF GP-2600S/4600S/6600S — no Photo Grey slot
- The Grey (GY) slot of the same printer

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I mix 700 ml and smaller tanks?
Yes. The printer reads each tank by colour, so a 700 ml tank and a 160 ml or 330 ml tank of the same ink can sit in different slots, as long as your model accepts that tank size.
Is this the same as PFI-1700 PGY?
No. PFI-1700 PGY is LUCIA PRO ink for the older PRO-x000/x100 printers and will not fit the PRO-x600.
How do I know my printer takes it?
Check that your printer is one of the models listed in the specifications. If your model is not listed, send it to us and we will confirm the correct tank.
Singular Expert Insight · Buyer's Guide
The 3700 and 1700 tanks look almost the same on a shelf. The quickest check is the printer model: PRO-2600/4600/6600 take PFI-3700, the older PRO models take PFI-1700. Browse our
original ink range for the other colours of the set.
✓ Buy it if you run a Canon imagePROGRAF PRO-2600/4600/6600 and need the Photo Grey (PGY) tank.
✕ Skip it if your printer is from a different imagePROGRAF series — the tank will not fit.
→ Also consider Canon PFI-3700 PC Photo Cyan (6451C001) and the other PFI-3700 colours for the same printer.
