3.0 out of 5 stars You will need plently
I have a new Canon MX 860 printer. It is set on grayscale, fast. Rarely ever print in color, but this machine goes through the ink much more quickly than any other copier I have had. The manual says the copier will use color ink even in the grayscale mode. Be prepared to buy copious amounts of ink. Consumer Reports rated this printer tops, a recommended buy. They did not...

I like the ink, makes great photographs with lasting color. I only give it a 3 star because they are so tiny and dry up in printer when not in use they aren't really worth the expense.

5.0 out of 5 stars Very good ink, better than refurbished, July 22, 2011

I have a printer at home that takes this ink from Canon and it works really well. I have had a previous printer that took Canon ink, and even though it is expensive, it does the job, compared to refurbished inks that say they are the same as the real ink.

Most computer technicians out there tell you to stick with the name brands of inks and toners and to NOT use the refurbished kinds, even though they are cheaper and inexpensive and look the same as the real stuff. The refurbished inks and toners can ruin your printer a lot quicker than regular expensive name brand inks and toners. You will be spending a lot of money trying to get your printer fixed or buying a new one if you use refurbished ink.

I used refurbished ink in the past for my previous printer and it died on me because one of the ink wells died and couldn't produce the right ink...it dried up considerably, whereby I had to get a brand new printer for the price of a diagnostic test on the previous printer.

All in all, lesson is this: Stick with the name brand ink and toner that your manufacturer of your printer says to use. And even though they are more expensive than the refurbished inks, stick with what is best and your printer will thank you for it. You will get richer color and contrast on each copy of print when you use regular name brand ink that is for your printer.

This ink is one of the best out there and by far it has richer colors than other inks. Canon is great for what it does.

Hard to put a ranking on ink cartridges - they either work or they don't. I like Canon printers, although they do seem to go through the ink fast. These cartridges are very easy to replace.

What can I say - it's just ink for gosh sakes. I've tried non-OEM inks in the past and always been dissapointed, so now I always stick to brand name inks.

These ink cartridges are excellent. I just wish they had more ink. But this is the problem with all ink jet printer cartridges. I buy the Canon brand because I learned that the off brand inks tend to cause early printer death.
