Canon PGI-5 BK 2-Pack Pigment Black Ink Tanks

Editorial Review:

Canon has poured all the Know How of its extraordinary history of developing innovative office machines into each of its copiers, printers, and networked office systems. The same superiority of design and manufacture goes into all of the Canon-branded consumable imaging supplies and parts for this equipment. Naturally, no one makes better parts and supplies for Canon products than Canon. Using genuine Canon parts and supplies is your best insurance against equipment damage, and possibly voiding your equipment warranty.

Compatible with Canon PIXMA models iP4200, iP5200, iP5200R, 500 and 800, the PGI-5BK black ink cartridge is created with pigment ink formulation for long lasting prints. Designed to be resistant to highlighter smearing and smudges, the ultra-fine ink provides your documents with crisply legible text and sharply defined images on a range of papers. The expected yield is approximately 650 pages per cartridge, based on 5% coverage.

What's in the Box:
Two black ink cartridges

good buy:

this is a decent buy for the money.I would like to be able to get all the colors for the same low price, however.

Cheaper color ink:

I love the cannon ink cartridge because your color ink is cheaper. You only buy the color you are out of instead of a whole cartridge. Also their price of ink is much cheaper than what I was paying with my last printer.

Ink goes too quickly:

The ink, and the printer it goes into, works ok. The problem is that the ink gets used up too quickly, so the lifetime cost of using this ink with an associated printer is VERY high. Even printing black text soaks up some of the other colors of ink. Buy a printer that uses this ink only if you have deep pockets.

WELL . . .:

WORKS GREAT, BUT WHY DOES IT COST SO MUCH? IT'S AS IF CANON SELLS THEIR PRINTERS CHEAP SO THEY CAN SCREW US IN THE INK. AND I'VE TRIED REFILL INK KITS AND STAPLES' REFILL, BUT FOR SOME REASON THE QUALITY ISN'T VERY GOODS.
