Customer Reviews

Defect Noted
Not that we have much choice. You buy the cartridge for the printer from the Mfg, period. Just choose the seller with the best price and service. Have been buying these two packs from you for years (and the printer!). Not the current purchase but the previous purchase, we noted that the clip on the side of the cartridge was broken, disabling it's ability to function in the printer. Calling Amazon Customer Service, we were quickly credited appropriately. No Problem, thank you.

Original is for real
after trying replacement ink from china from ink resellers.. i had a lot of problems with the nozzel clogging up etc. Bought the original and the printer is working fine again.

Ink is Ink or Is It?
We all know by now that printer manufacturers made 90% of their money on ink. In fact, I think I just saw a WSJ review that said that 60% of all HP profits came from ink. I believe it - even if I misquoted it. Whether Canon or HP, this stuff is expensive, especially if you print photographs, and especially if they're 8x10s. (Add another 50¢ a sheet for the Canon glossy paper!) As careful as I am in selecting such photos, I replace the black cartridge about once a month; the cyan, yellow, etc. about every 3 months.

Quality is great, as good as HP. (Others have been inconsistent.) But the price is ridiculous especially since I return the empty cartridges, so I've spent $25 on maybe 4 ounces of ink. I'm seriously thinking of trying the refill services. New printers are cheap...
