I had seen a review for a similar item in which the customer had warned that he received a single pack after having ordered from Amazon and having paid for a multi-pack. I've never had any difficulty with Amazon so I was a little surpised when the same thing happened to me. I immediately reported the mistake to Amazon, via e-mail. The reply, which was very prompt, stated that they had checked the website and had "found that 'Rhinotek's Canon BCI-24- Compatible Black Ink Cartridge 4-Pack (BCI-24B-R4)' comes with one Cartridge with 4 Ink tanks." Although I clearly understand that this misunderstanding is based on the unclear language in this listing, particularly the way in which "cartridge" and "tank" are used interchangeably, nowhere does it state that it "comes with one Cartridge with 4 Ink tanks." What it does say is that a "pack includes 4 black ink tanks." Not only did the person that replied to my e-mail state that I had actually received the right product, but when I called Amazon's 800-number another Amazon employee made the same argument. I had to bring her attention to the model number listed for the single cartridge(BCI-24B-R), which matched the model number printed on the bottom of the item I received, before she would even consider conceding.(The item I had ordered, the 4-pack, has the model number BCI-24B-R4) I am thoroughly frustrated over this interaction, the time spent more than outweighing any savings, that I am certain that I will never purchase any such items from Amazon again; I'd rather go to the local office supply store and spend a few extra bucks to escape the chance of any further frustration. At this point, I am not sure if I will ever use Amazon again.

These cartridges are the perfect example of how expensive saving money can be. The cartridges produce printouts of inconsistent quality at best, and most of the time, the output was unusable. Stick with the name brand.

Never worry about running out of cartriges when I can get them through Amazon. This 4 pack is very conveniet. I hate running to the office supply store as I have nothing else to get there.

Rather than bore you with the details, let me just say that only one of the cartridges in the 4-pack I ordered actually worked. The other three had illegible print quality. Be very careful with Rhinotek products.

I found these ink cartridges to perform just like the Canon ones, except they are obviously much less expensive. I switched from the more expensive ones to these Rhinoteks about 12-15 cartridges ago, and I have been happy with them.

As for those who had problems, I'd check the printer, or maybe you didn't check the box that says you've put in new ink cartridges in your printer window. This used to happen to me back with the Canon ones, but I figured out what I had been doing wrong.

These cartrides work very well in my Cannon printer. They are reasonably priced and easy to obtain through Amazon.com.

I have been using Rhinotek cartridges for a couple of years now with absolutely NO problems. The quality is comparable to Canon's with a slightly lower price tag. And I have never had compatibility problems. I will definately keep using Rhinotek products!

It's good ink, works fine in my Canon, what more to say? Buy it!
