CLI-8BK Black Ink Cartridge

I purchased an 8-pack of the black and color cartridges for my Pixma MX850 printer, but none worked. I followed the directions, using the external shell with printer-compatible interface, and performed several cleaning and nozzle-check procedures. After 2-3 cleanings, the printout would be satisfactory, but after 5-10 minutes, none would print visibly, and re-cleaning procedures would be required to observe any ink output. I gave up after a couple of hours. All the cartridges were similar in that they would simply not print with my printer unit. I hate to discard cartridge units full of ink, but Staples did not want them.

Looks like it works just as expected on my Canon MP530 (old) printer. Good for printing another couple of hundreds of papers. Great price for the overall life of the product. Have been using this printer for long time and this type of ink does it just great, no leaks, great chip technology.

An excellent product...and good price. And for the best result, I will always buy only original CANON CLI-8BK Ink Cartridge.

Canon Chroma Ink is so yummy. The way it takes to the paper is like a symphony. The smell is wonderful, like a newly printed book. You just can't hesitate putting your nose in it and taking a deep sniff. I love this ink, it's great. Thanks Canon!

I needed to replenish my stock of ink for my printer and always buy brand name ink that is factory sealed. This item fit my needs and has worked great in my printer. I know many people use generic/off brand ink, but I had to buy a new printer after using generic ink that "gummed" up my printer head. For me, I will never buy generic ink. I will only buy brand ink and thus this item has worked great for me.
