Canon Printer Ink - ink cartridge, ip1800
This cartridge was designed for one purpose... To keep you busy buying ink!! Most printers that uses this cartridge will also accept the PG-40 cartridge (double capacity) or the PG-50 cartridge (triple capacity). Whether you're buying factory new (O.E.M.) cartridges or refilled/recycled carts., do yourself a favor and pick the 40 or the 50 series carts. and get far more ink for only a little more than these!! The same goes for the color cartridge that mates with this one. Canon PG-30 Black Ink Cartridge (1899B002)
Can't give this product a good rating because there is NO INFORMATION on the carton OR the cartridge that tells us how much ink is in the cartridge.
I'm surprised that Amazon.com would advertise a product that has no weight and/or volume info on the package.
UPDATE -- The Canon MP470 is a GREAT Scanner-Printer-Copier -- BUT, I do believe it's an incurable inkaholic. That is to say that the Canon MP470 is to ink what the Hummer is to gasoline.
This sale was a bit misleading since it states under condition that this product is New. It is not, its a refilled cartridge which originally did not bother me, however, like many refilled cartridges, they dont last like a manufacturers sealed cartridge does. They do work in my printer with no issues, but normally cartridges last me approx. 2 1/2 - 3 weeks with my use, and the first one I used just ran out after less than 1 week. Even with a great low price, this was not a good deal for me. I will go back to the sealed manufacturers ink cartridges.
I used to order ink cartridges from office stores. I have two printers home.
I didn't realize that Amazon.com carries this kind of products. What a surprise! The price is much cheaper than office stores. From now on I will purchase ink cartridges from Amazon.com only.
Too expensive and runs out way to quick, I think they actually reduced the amount of ink in each cartridge, that or they dry out. Price does not fall Canon is a rip off, but better than others, if you can find cheaper Target is a good choice go for it, otherwise Amazon is best even if pricing is not competitive.
These cartridges do not last long. I get only a few pages from them when using for both text and photo printing. I normally like canon products, but this product (Printer and Cartridges) is pretty lousy.
The shipping and deliver process was fine. I don't know if its ink cartridges in general or just this brand, but they always seem to run out so quickly! Or at least the program starts telling you to buy new ink in no time. I'm stuck with it because of my printer, so at least the price isn't terrible (in my experience- compared to Dell.)
Exact ink cartridge I needed for the canon 2600. I looked all over the internet and this was the best price I can find. I like the brand name due to the chip that lets you know when the ink is running low. I'm very pleased! - Canon Printer - Ink Cartridge - Ip1800 - Canon Ink'
