User Ratings and Reviews

5 Stars Keep spares on hand, you’ll need them
As another reviewer noted, these cartridges are hard to find and not necessarily “bundled” with the others used by an MP-980 since the other printers those bundles work with don’t necessarily need this particular one. Amazon sells the real thing, not a generic knock-off. Good pricing too.

4 Stars In agreement with most other reviewers
Amazon does offer the lowest price on the Canon CLI ink cartridges. But the price for these inks, IMO, are still pretty high, especially considering the size of the cartridges. If MP980’s CLI and PGI ink costs decrease in the future (hopefully real soon!), then the rating would definitely increase to 5 stars.

Thank you Amazon reviewers for all your comments. Because I thoroughly reviewed these products (online and in-store) and the associated commentaries, I now know that it’s best to order these inks through Amazon (until some other seller offers lower pricing). I will also be sure to keep extra inks on hand;so I never have to experience down-time with my MP980.

I love the Canon PIXMA MP980, and knew beforehand what to expect as far as print quality and associated costs. So I have no complaints about the printer itself (other than its costly inks). But, I do think one gets what they pay for, and I do tend to go for better quality items.

Thank you Amazon and Amazon Reviewers.

5 Stars Valuable information
I was able to disable the ink monitoring system by holding the stop button on my MP980 for about five seconds. I have done this only for the gray and only to print until I get a new cartridge. It appears by my testing that this system is re enabled by installing a new cartridge or removing and reinstalling the old one. This is explained in the online manual that came with the MP980 although it is buried. Tim

5 Stars Excellent Transaction
I received the printer ink before expected and it was packaged well, incurring no damages and the price was very competitive. I couldn’t have experienced a better transaction. I’d have no reluctance in doing business with this seller or making a purchase with this seller in the future.

1 Star Canon 2950B001 CL-221 Ink Tank (Gray)
Amazon shows this product Canon 2950B001 CL-221 Ink Tank (Gray) works with the Cannon Pixma MP620 printer but Cannon says it ONLY works with the MP980 printer. So, beware before you purchase this item for any printer other than the MP980 printer!

4 Stars Thank you Amazon…
for selling these Canon inks at the lowest price around. The inks for the MP980 are expensive, and the ink in these cartridges does seem to run out quite fast (my reasons for rating 4 of 5 stars). I need to order more cartridges for my printer (so to have an extra supply on hand when needed), and I notice that today’s price for the CLI-221 4-pk is a few bucks lower than what I paid 3 weeks ago. If Amazon can go even lower on their Canon CLI ink prices, I would be most ecstatic!

And by the way, I do love my Canon PIXMA MP980 printer. Photos turn out great, and text printing has been superb. Compared to my old printer (bought 5 yrs ago), this MP980 prints at a very fast speed. Also love the auto-duplex feature. I also use my MP980 as a scanner and photocopier and have no complaints. I haven’t used the scanner to scan negatives or slides yet, but can’t wait to do so. My only hope is that the quality of scanned negatives/slides is pretty darn good. I’ve always been partial to Canon photo products-cameras, etc.-and this MP980 printer does not disapoint me. I would definitely buy another Canon printer.

And, I will definitely keep buying my inks from Amazon…best prices (so far) and very fast shipping. Every product ordered through Amazon for the last 10 months has arrived as expected (except for one item, though wasn’t fault of Amazon), and the packaging & shipping of products has been just superb.

Thank you!

4 Stars Missing a color
I have the MP980 which is one of the printers this box is supposed to be for — but the printer says it requires a grey cartridge. There isn’t one in here. There is a black that will fit there – hope that works. If I’m spending the additional money on Canon ink, I’d like my Canon ink to Canon printer instructions be clearer.

5 Stars Great Price
Always a better price then I can get in the stores and I don’t have to leave the house to get it. Love it!

5 Stars delivered quick, and product was perfect.
The product was shipped very quickly and was delivered in perfect condition. Would deal with again!

5 Stars Great Product!
I love my Canon printer for printing pictures and I like the bargain I received when buying this ink. It was somewhat confusing initially because the same seller did not come up initially, so the product did not qualify for Amazon’s free shipping, but I continued to search until I found a seller I used previously.
