I'm very very pleased with the results and can foresee myself sticking with Canon printers and their inks. I have regrettably tried a set of compatible inks in the past which produced disgraceful print quality, where the colours ran and mixed with each other on paper. They also made a mess of my printer around the area where the cartridges sit in place. I had gone too far with penny pinching, and quickly went back to the Cannon original inks. It took many and I mean many executions of my printer's self maintenance cleaning software to get it back to its 'as manufacturer intended' state, even after I had changed the ink back to Canon originals. I recently bought my Canon original cartridges from Max_Save (Great service, fast dispatch) who sell within the Amazon Marketplace. Oh by the way.. in regards to the feedback comments I've read by people who feel that they have been 'ripped off' in respect of the postage charge by sellers within the Amazon Market Place.. Please spare us from the exposure of your own stupidity. No one put a gun to their heads to buy the ink cartridges. We are all made fully aware of the postage charge before we confirm our orders. So why on earth do people pay for items, when you are not happy with the price? And then write lines and lines of complaints with no feedback review on the product!? The bottom line is that, if Amazon Market Place Sellers sell a cartridge for example ... Read More Rating: - Stick With The Canon Originals But Dont Get Ripped Off On P&PI have tried compatible cartridges on my Canon pixma IP4300 and I can't be bothered with having to swap the chips off the original Canon cartridges and then clipping it on to the compatible, just to find the the bloody thing won't work. Stick to the Canon original cartridges for a stress free life of printing. Some people on Amazon have also had the same problem as myself when it comes to companies offering a really cheap price on the net, but when it comes to the delivery charges (£4.50) WHAT!!!!!, really you and I know that a ink cartridge can be sent though the post for about £1.00. Do these companies really think that they can reel us in with what looks like a really cheap price for a cartridge that cost £4 - £5 less than on the high street and then make a huge profit on a unrealistic delivery charge. I have found a company called advantage online who sell a original Canon PGI-5 black for £9.99 and a full set of the CLI-8 cartridges for £34.98, which is a good price, but the best bit is that they don't charge delivery and its all sent first class royal mail. I have used them now on three different occasions have have been more that happy with their service. Rating: - Rate the product, not the delivery, and check where you buy fromI've read a lot of negative reviews and low ratings on Canon inks, so I wanted to point out a couple of things to think about to those that read the reviews and using them before buying. You may find this same review on the different ink colours from Canon, but I don't work for Canon and I'm not a fanboy of theirs either (I prefer the digital cameras from their main rival actually!) - I simply use Canon printers and inks. 1) Some reviews are not rating the product, they are rating the delivery cost of the item. Whilst this is an important part of the purchase, I don't think it is justified to include this in the rating because Amazon provide free delivery if you spend £15 or over. This can easily be done by buying two cartridges. Myself, I tend to buy four or five at a time in order to have plenty of spares before large print jobs. 2) I believe some of the negative comments about delivery arise because the products are being bought from a Marketplace Seller and not Amazon themselves. Yes, clicking on 'Add to Shopping Basket' does automatically order from the vendor listed after 'Availability' (look carefully next time), but if you look to the right of the page, under 'More Buying Choices' and click on 'x used and new', you can order from Amazon themselves. Granted, it is more expensive but the free delivery makes it cheaper overall. 3) If you are not really concerned about the quality of the printed output, then yes, you can certainly buy a cheaper ... Read More Rating: - Quality inksUnfortunately one does need to use Canon chipped inks to make the ink usage software work properly. Postage rates are high, check all suppliers there is one which charges a flat rate of £4 per delivery plus 50p per item so mutliple orders at the same time are considerably cheaper. Rating:  - Rip-Off PostageWatch this seller - if you try to buy from them, they'll hit you with postage charges that are greater than the cost of the cartridge. And it is rumoured that the charge is per cartridge, not per order. Specifically, item cost £4.24, postage £5.98.
