5.0 out of 5 stars Not Cheap, but Works Great, December 17, 2006
The price per print of ink jet printers is simply expensive, especially when you consider the fact that the process is probably not even close to being archival quality. Yet for most they will suffice. It is commonly believed that if you want archival you should either use silver emmulsion (what you will get if you have your prints traditionally developed by a photo lab - even a one hour lab) or dye sublimation. All that being said, this ink and the printers they go into do a very good job. I've been very impressed. I don't think there is a huge difference over the last generation, but if you want the newer printers you have to make the switch to the newer ink. Good news is that it works with the current crop of paper.
What is great about this ink cartdridge is that in the canon printers it is the cartridge mostly used for black print, while the other black cartridge is used for photo prints. This keeps your cost of printing regular text a little cheaper.
Buying on Amazon isn't much cheaper than other options, but if you are signed up for Amazon Prime, it is increadibly easy to buy them and have them delievered very quickly (two days).

5.0 out of 5 stars Nothing like the original, March 23, 2007

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
I've tried generic and refilled brands and I'll never do that again. I print a lot of photos and CD/DVDs and there is a huge difference in quality from the real thing and the generic. The per page price isn't that bad and I use a lot of ink. The originals go far and is worth the extra cost.

The ink is great and easy to use, but it runs out quickly and is expensive.

4.0 out of 5 stars Canon PGI- BK 2-Pack
Great product. Usually buying the two-pack is the best value. I didn't give this card a 5-star rating only because I think the cost of ink is too high for all ink-jet printers.
