Too soon to review because I’m still using the ink cartridge that came with the printer

Watch out…Amazon recommended this form my Pixima MP 680, but it was the wrong ink. I got it home and opened up the printer and noticed that I needed the 220 and 221 line of cartridges. It might have worked, but I did not want to take the chance. The return process was easy and I now have the correct ink. I love shopping Amazon.

Some people really should not listen to some people around them that get them all hot and bothered with innacurate information.
1. This Black Ink Cartrige I am buying in advance for my IP4200 amazing printer.
2. I have had Canon printers before, but this and the new 8 level ink give such better quality and run and run and run !!
3. The technology in the ink makes it dry immediately and is guaranteed never to fade. There is a finer mist on how it is sprayed on.
4. Lord knows why anyone would want to screw up the quality output of a Canomn printer, but cheap knockoffs of othe Canon ink products are everywhere. Just go to Staples, or a million other stores and online inkjet services.
5. Something to note. The Canon printers run at less that 1/2 the price of any HP inkjets. Why? Because there is NO logic in the Canon cartridges, plus the ink is psrayed “finer”. In most other cartridges, like the HP ink jet, their are print heads in every on of their expensive cartridges. In the Canon, there is only ONE print head that works outside of the ink units, therefore making the cartridges less expensive, being able to fill more and makes the printer a heck of a lot lesser to run, maintenance wise.
So if you want to get a fine printer and grundge up the output, go after those clones. The cartridges need changing so irregulary, I just don’t understand. It is like purchasing a Jaguar automobile and trying to save money on it, by having the engine replaced with a Ford Escort engine.

I have no complaints about how long the ink last or the actual text quality. My main beef is the ink is not waterproof. I can’t use a highlighter on documents printed on my Canon MP500. I seem to remember being able to do this on my old HP DeskWriter (the original, over 10 years old). If there is another Canon ink number compatable with my printer that can be highlighted I’d sure like to know.
