Have had my Canon Printer for 2 years and never had a problem with Canon inks tried this brand for a change and I get large empty blotches. Seems like other people have had good results, thats why I went ahead and bought the product but results are similar to what I have gotten from other chinese copy inks. You get what u pay for!

Well 2 of the colors leaked a lot when I opened the package. I ended up installing them with gloves on. If I was over the carpet I would have been pretty mad. Never had this happen with with Canon ink. Still gave it 3 stars as it seesm to work well once they were in.

The item I ordered was the Canon compatible BCI-3e 4pk ink cartridges. It was an unbelievable "steal" to get such a great deal on this 4 pack which included the black and 3 color cartridges. If I had bought these at a local store in my area I would have paid at least $45 if not more. I have printed using these cartridges and they work beautifully. I truly recommend these if they are compatible with your printer, you can't go wrong.

I bought this ink for my Canon i550 printer. It was delivered in just as few days. As others have noted, neither the boxes the color cartridges come in nor the labels on the color cartridges themselves said they were for my Canon i550 printer. The box for the black cartridge did say it was for my i550. But after carefully examining each of the color cartridges themselves and comparing them to the depleted Canon cartridges that I still had, I determined they were effectively the same size and shape. So I installed them all. I should say at this point that I use my printer for text and printing pages off the internet. I rarely print digital photos, and I've not tried to print any with this ink. If I wanted to print some nice photos I'd use Canon's ink. That said, at first use of printing text I got some blotching as others have reported. There were also severe problems with missing all or some portions of lines of text. But I was able to clear that up by running the Canon nozzle cleaner utility and print head alignment routine. I believe the more important of these two was the print head alignment because when I did the alignment check it showed it was way off. After going step-by-step though my i550 printer's manual to re-align the printer head the print was very good. One final comment. After the printer has set for a week or more without use, it may have some difficulty printing text, but not as bad as prior to the head alignment. However, this problem clears-up after re-printing the initial page once, sometimes twice.

Bottom-line: It's really inexpensive ink, but it can do a pretty good job on basic printing. If it continues to work as well as it has I'll buy it again because the cost savings to me is worth the little bit of putsing around it occasionally requires.

These don't work at all. I printed out the same picture 3 times. One time, there was no color, another time, there was color but it was all washed out, third time, there were streaks across the whole picture. Then tried printing out a Google Maps web page, no color and barely readable. Tried the different cleaning options, none of which helped at all.
