5 out of 5 stars works just fine   June 10, 2009

This ink works as well as the Cannon ink, but three times less money. The other reviewers are right, wear rubber gloves when opening and installing the tanks. It's not but a drop in a couple of the packages, but printer ink stains deep and bright. The drop or two in the package does not affect the ink's performance. Try it, you'll like it.

I was skeptical because of the inexpensive nature of this product. But these cartridges went in my printer without a hitch and I had no problem with excess ink coming out.... will definitely use this product again!


5 out of 5 stars Best cartridges yet   January 11, 2010

These Cartridges have a larger INK to SPONGE ratio, as I was surprised when I pulled my old discount ink cartridges out--they were 75% foam and 25% ink. These cartridges are just the opposite-- 25% foam and 75% ink. I haven't used it up yet, but I would probably deduce that it would last much, much longer.

Also, these cartridges did not leak at all. They came with very sturdy nozzle caps that were easy to remove without getting ink all over your hands. Some other nozzle caps are really small and you're guaranteed to get it on your hands. These were designed very well.

I would by these from now on.

I'm so impressed with these ink cartridges, and the fact that they come with the little computer chip (without having to install chips from your older cartridges) makes the deal even better. This is even cheaper than getting your cartridges refilled... I'm buying another set right now, maybe two.

Do wear plastic/rubber gloves when opening up the cartridges, they do spill, and these inks really stain. Open them over a folded paper towel as well and dab the ink opening with the towel before installing just to avoid a bigger mess when you turn them over to install in your printer.

After I tried it the first day, I gave 5 stars - I now changed my review to the one below, but Amazon did not permit to change the rating of stars....

REVISED REVIEW:

Used these cartridges in my Canon MP610.
Very sceptical at first because the ink looked very liquid in these cartridges - a thing I never experienced on the original Canon product...
Very sceptical also because I am a professional photographer and use this printer only to print high quality pictures for customers...
At first I replaced only two empty cartidges and not all 5. No problems at all. I then changed my mind, thinking it may be better (more safe) not to mix Canon and this new product - I replaced all of them.

Results:
1. I was not able to see much of a difference in results of picture quality between the Canon cartridges and this product! Maybe a bit lighter than the Canon ink.
2. I then tried black and white pictures which came out in good quality but showed a slight blue touch.
3. I then tried to print a regular document which came out unreadable. Changing the printer setting to highest quality, a usable print came out, but rather grey than black print.

The surprise I had the following morning when I tried to print a regular document - the sheet came out white with no print at all. Looks like one of the black cartridges does not work. I was not able to print any black print document at all and paper just comes out white.
Trying now photos again, showed reasonable results but I am very worried now about my printer and will go out to buy Canon again.

Product no good!
