Don't buy. Doesn't work. August 14, 2010 On-line purchase skeptic This product only works every once in a while. The ink cartridges don't install correctly. You can press them in and they will light up as if connected, but they don't stay there. I was only able to print 1/4 or 1/5 times. They must be defective ones. Sometimes they would print twice in a row, but without me touching them they stopped. I would have to go to my wireless printer, open it and wait for the cartridges to come to the center and I would see only this one cartridge's light no longer lit (the four others colors were lit). I would have to press it in again, it wouldn't always feel like it would stay, but regardless it never stayed for long.) Then I would have to wait for the printer to go through a reset cycle and it would either work or not. This all takes a lot of time and is very unreliable. Either they aren't quite the right size or the chips are defective, but they are suppose to be real cannon cartridges. What a waste of money and time. All three are like this. I had to finally go out and buy new ones from the store. They cost a bit more, but they actually work.
Canon ink is the only way to go August 4, 2010 Walter Mitty (San Carlos, Ca USA) After having an OEM leaking ink tank ruin my printer and voiding the warranty, I swore I would only use Canon ink. The reliability from a trusted name means a lot. Also, you won't be disappointed with the ink colors and the ease of installation. It pops right into the cartridge holder with easy color identifiable slots. Yes, the ink tanks tanks are more expensive, but they're worth it.
Good Deal - Canon PGI-220 Triple Pack August 2, 2010 H. Frank I have a Canon MX860 printer/copier/scanner. It is a great machine. It prints fast and beautifully. But, it is very generous in its use of ink. The Canon black combo pack is one way I can control my costs and avoid buying remanufactured cartridges or brand "X" ink.
Canon PGI-220 Black ink tripple pack August 2, 2010 Larry J. Wagner (Golden, CO) Have used 5-6 of these triple packs since last September and have had no problems. I had so many problems with my previous Canon printer because I began using "other" Canon "compatable" ink tanks. Yea, there were cheaper. They did not last as long and the colors went crazy.
Yes, it's printer ink, but it's better than most July 26, 2010 Peter At the very least, be glad they separate the black cartridges out, considering it's gone the quickest. I remember in the olden days when all you had was one ink cartridge, and no matter what if one color ran out you were SOL.
These cartridges are moderately priced in the 3-pack, and you do get a decent number of copies from them. Even after the computer tells me the ink is out, I tend to "continue printing" anyway, as I noticed that it's similar to a car saying "fuel empty," you're not all the way gone, but you're pretty close.
You can't beat OEM either, the generics don't hold up as well, and for some reason they get a little messy. Overall, this is a pretty good buy, considering it's the most frequently replaced.
