This is the ink I need for my printer, so the double pack is good since I used this cartridge often, and it saves a few bucks

This is the fastest, easiest way to by ink. Don't go for the knock off procucts.

after trying replacement ink from china from ink resellers.. i had a lot of problems with the nozzel clogging up etc. Bought the original and the printer is working fine again.

We all know by now that printer manufacturers made 90% of their money on ink. In fact, I think I just saw a WSJ review that said that 60% of all HP profits came from ink. I believe it - even if I misquoted it. Whether Canon or HP, this stuff is expensive, especially if you print photographs, and especially if they're 8x10s. (Add another 50 a sheet for the Canon glossy paper!) As careful as I am in selecting such photos, I replace the black cartridge about once a month; the cyan, yellow, etc. about every 3 months.

Quality is great, as good as HP. (Others have been inconsistent.) But the price is ridiculous especially since I return the empty cartridges, so I've spent $25 on maybe 4 ounces of ink. I'm seriously thinking of trying the refill services. New printers are cheap...

vendor pictured a Canon BCI 3e blk twinpak. I ordered 2. I received 4 cartridges of (compatible) ink. Usage of this stuff voids Canon warrantee. I returned the ink and am waiting for a refund. C. Maxfield
