As you are making a purchase decision, we suggest that you take the time to read some CLI-8 Canon Ink reviews in order to see what other consumers have to say about the product. Here are some user reviews to help you make your shopping decision:

When I needed ink for my Canon MP600 all in one, I searched for the best price and this is it! The ink that came with my MP600 lasted 6 months, by far the longest of any ink I have ever used for any machine! The individual tanks are terrific because they are so quick and easy to install. Some reviewers think the bundling of these tanks is a rip-off, but I disagree. All my tanks were depleted almost at the same time, except for the black. I like the idea that I can buy only one tank if needed, but the bundling also saves me money.

I have been very happy with my Canon Pixma printers. I currently have one in my office and one at my home office. I bought my office machine last summer. Then, this past winter, when my HP printer at my home office died, I replaced it with a Canon, as well. I've broken off my long term relationship with HP and have never looked back. Not once. While I recognize this is not a review about the printers, the fact remains that the printers are worthless without the ink. One thing I like about the Canon pixma ink cartridges is that they are priced significantly lower than the cartridges I purchased for my HP. The reason is simple: Instead of one color ink cartridge, there are 3 color cartridges. When the yellow runs out, simply replace the yellow. In the long run, this ends up being a lot more economical. Additionally, the print head is installed in the printer itself, not in the individual print cartridges, which also saves money. The CLI-8 4-pack is the best way to purchase these cartridges and I have not found a lower price than that offered at Amazon.com. I hate running out of ink, so I keep a couple packages on hand. When I am running low, I place an order online. Shipping and handling are free, there is no sales tax, and the price can't be beat. And yes, I am thrilled with the print quality of my Pixmas. I'm a Realtor. I print MLS sheets, letters, marketing materials, glossy brochures, and even post cards in limited quantity. I am particular about the quality of print and have been more than satisfied with the cartridges and printers. Only once did I have a problem with an ink cartridge. I kept receiving an error message telling me that the wrong tank was in the printer. I kept taking it out and putting it back in, turning the printer off, then on again. (Did the hokey pokey and I turned myself around....) Finally called Canon only to find out that the print cartridge was defective. They sent me a new one, so I can't really complain. Canon printers and ink ROCK!

I bought the four-pack for my Canon Pixma iP4300 from Amazon because the price was good, and they offer free shipping on orders over $25. Also, I have gotten less than satisfying results from off-brand ink cartridges. I bought a high-rated printer to get good pictures, so why go with ink that is a couple of dollars cheaper? Most of my online shopping is through Amazon, and I have never been disappointed.

I use the Canon CLI-8 ink tanks on my canon MP 830 Multifunction printer, the ink rocks, the normal document print quality both color and black/white is great. Photographs are vivid and life like, my friends didnot believe i printed the photos at home.

Canon has placed a chip on each ink tank that stores the ink empty status, i am told even if you manage to refill it you cannot reset the eprom status back to full. I guess its canon's way to ensure you buy only thier catridges. I have not tried to refill them. The ink tanks last for quite a bit, i would preferred them to last longer and be without the chip.

Go for it, the ink quality is great. the price is reasonable.

Everytime I've purchased any Canon ink cartridge, and I've purchased well over a hundred bargain brand's and Canon's, I've been extremely pleased with:
o no clogging,
o quality print,
o page count per cartridge printing,
o every cartridge printing when installed

The only negative would be their high pricing, but I guess it proves the old axiom "you get what you pay for".
-T. Feiling (CLI-8 Canon Ink user review from Amazon.com)

I tried "aftermarket" ink (about $10 for the counterpart to this item) after going through the ink that came with my MP600. It printed ok, but the color was not as good and you have to remove the chip from the Canon cartridge and stick it to the aftermarket cartridge while wearing the supplied plastic glove. This is not fun when you are in a hurry to get something printed. It seems I'm always in a hurry when I'm printing for some reason!

At any rate, I came back to the Canon ink and I'm glad I did. Amazon gave the usual great service and I'm loving the Prime shipping!

PC Magazine did a printing cost review a couple of issues back and the MP600 was about second from the top for least expensive printing. I was pleased. Canon printers and ink strike a good balance between quality (excellent) and cost per page (always very competitive).

Inkjet printing is not cheap no matter which printer you have, but I'm pleased with this item as the best, most reliable solution for the lowest or almost lowest price.
