 Original printing cartridges much better, 2010-05-27
These cartridges are of excellent quality. although i do not print photos, these are excellent for general printing, much better than the compatibles i have bought before.
Very Happy, 2010-07-26
Usually I don't review products that have a lot of reviews already as it's normally the case that everything that needs to be said has been said, but in this case that is simply not true. Most of the top rated reviews talk about the price of the cartridges or advocate generic stock instead. To me, that doesn't say much about this product.
I bought these replacements for a Canon PIXMA iP4700 printer. As a photographer, I use a colour-calibrated system and I need the final printed result to match the colours on the screen. The drivers for my printer include ICC colour profiles for Canon inks and papers, and the iP4700 is capable of using the Adobe RGB (1998) colour space, which is the colour space I work in with my photographs. So why would I want to mortgage the quality of my prints by using third party inks which the drivers can't account for in terms of colour management?
If that was all a foreign language to you, the short version is that the printer creates specific colours by mixing inks according to a recipe, and if it doesn't know what the ink is that you've put in it then that recipe will be wrong. If colour accuracy is important to you, use genuine inks.
On to the physical aspects of these cartridges - I am quite pleased. They have a window that spans the entire depth of the cartridge so you can see clearly that new cartridges are full, and used cartridges are indeed empty. They also have a clever sponge-like material inside them which ensures that when the last of the ink is ready to leave the tank, it stays over the exit nozzle instead of pooling somewhere else inside the cartridge.
These cartridges are easy to fit, robust, and fairly economical. They may cost a bit more than generics but for the reasons already stated, I'm happy to pay a couple of pounds more to get the best possible results. What would make them even better is if Canon implemented a system for returning spent cartridges, as some other manufacturers do.
 Excellent But Overpriced, 2010-05-28
I use 2 types of Canon ink cartridges because I use 2 Canon Printers and this type just like the other type that I use do an excellent job of printing, however I could never award 5 stars because of the price of Canon and all other makes of ink cartridges. In my view all Printer manufacturers make enormous profits from the ink cartridges that they produce but if they halved the price they would probably sell almost twice as many and this would go quite a long way to stopping the sales of compatible, refurbished and refilled cartridges that I would never use anyway as they pose too much of a risk to whichever brand of Printer that you use.
 Canon printer cartridges, 2010-05-16
Very satified with the service. It's a shame that the full range of printer cartridges aren't available from this supplier. I had to go elsewhere for the Canon original CLI-521 black ink cartridge which incurred extra postage costs.
Genuine canon products, but short life span, 2010-07-09
We bought a Canon 520 printer about 6 months ago, having had an HP inkjet prior to that. These are genuine canon cartridges, boxed together. They are exactly as you would buy individually, but as a multipack. However, they seem to have a very short life span in our printer.
