User Ratings and Reviews

5 Stars Not bad for the price!!!
Considering the outrageous price of things today I consider this ink purchase a fairly good buy.

4 Stars Canon PGI- BK 2-Pack
Great product. Usually buying the two-pack is the best value. I didn’t give this card a 5-star rating only because I think the cost of ink is too high for all ink-jet printers.

5 Stars great product
I like getting canon ink. The box was in good shape. I received it within the week. I like it.

5 Stars Value for money and good quality
Note this Pack includes 2 Tanks

My printer is less than an year old and I use it for regular and Photo priting. Initially I felt the alternative brand was cheaper but when you compare the quaility and quantity its worth going with the original.

Alternative Brand

1 Tank = 11$, 2 Tanks = 22$

Cannon I got 2 Tanks for 29.04 -22 = 7.04 (This is worth guaranteed quaility, free shipping and the orginal catridges have extra ink + good quaility photos.)

5 Stars It’s only ink
What can be said about ink. It’s just ink. It’s by the manufacturer of my printer and it is what I needed. It arrived quickly and works well. It was a good buy for the money. In the end, it’s just ink.

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!

5 Stars great deal
Two black inks and one color ink for less than $36 is a great deal for my iP100 – a great (but a bit pricey) printer.

5 Stars Reviewer was incorrect
I just read a negative review due to cost. That person believed that there was only 1 color and 1 black and white. There is 1 color and 2 black and white ink cartridges so you do save money.

4 Stars Canon printer ink
Genuine Canon printer ink for Pixma MX700 all-in-one. Good product, good price, Great service as usual.

2 Stars Combo pack more expensive than both items separate
Today (May 31st, 2009) Amazon sells the B&W and color cartridges for 12.99 and 17.99 respectively, which adds up to 30.98 for the two. However this combo pack is sold for 35.98. No deal here! Don’t buy this product, just buy the separate items. That one extra click will save you five bucks.
