    I always buy brand of ink designed for the brand of printer I own. Generic ink is not recommended, my experience has been it will eventually disable the printer. I usually purchase XL size of ink, however, the gray is not available in gray.

    I'm not sure why this ink is separated from the rest when they know it's needed, but I guess it works fine. Not sure where the Grey is used for my color photos, but I guess that's the process you pay to have a newer printer. Black and white photos will probably be gorgeous when I do them. At least they better be...

    Excellent. And fast delivery. This gray cartridge can’t be found anywhere in stores now but Best Buy online shows it and they deliver fast!

    This ink is good, but does not last too long

    I print pictures on my printer, so this ink is great for it, but needs to be replaced frequently. I think I only printers 10-12 pictures before it told me that ink is low. Plus, you have to be very careful when replacing it as it spills very easily. So, do not repeat my mistake and follow their instructions closely!

    I am a big purchaser of Canon ink and I keep extra cartridges of 251 black and gray inks in my photo supply drawer. As I have stated many times, this ink is of good quality and if you do a lot of color printing, you can’t go wrong with this choice.

    So long as you have the right printer to coordinate with this ink then you're good to go. I love that Canon has printers with more ink options. Having the grey for mid tones instead of just black really helps bring images to life.

    the cannon printer and ink cartridges are superior to HP and Epson I have had an HP all in one and pictures were fair. I did not have an Epson but received pictures from one and was not impressed

    The grey ink makes all the difference of perfection in your photos and pictures within documents! The 250 & 251 ink is getting harder to find. I hope that is not a way to force consumers not to buy a new printer.

    Never had a problem with canon toner cartridges and Best Buy has decent prices with my Elite Member discount. Only suggestion to Best Buy is that I wished they offered the XL version of this gray cartridge.

    I’ve always had good experiences with the print quality from using Canon ink. It’s unfortunate that this particular cartridge isn’t included in a larger pack where the other cartridges are commonly bundled with other colors for the same printer.

    This is a fairly priced ink cartridge, it lasts a decent amount of time. We have had other printers that required much more expensive ink cartridges that didn't stretch nearly so far. The quality of the ink is very good as well.

    Easy to replace, wish the ink would last longer. It is good the colors are in five cartridges. So if you use more of one color, there is not waste in replacing just one mail mult color cartridge.

    Cannon ink is high quality ink and you can see the results when printing. I have used other brands in the past and end up having problems with my printer haven't had any since I bought a new printer and only use Cannon ink.

    We love our Canon printer and these individual ink cartridges. Copies are crisp and clear. Prints are vivid and colorful. When looking for quality, buy Canon for your printing needs.

    I can always depend on Best Buy to have a full selection of the product I need, in the instance, I was desperately searching for Canon gray colored ink with no success, until I checked Best Buy. I felt the search has ended.

    I really liked this ink. The quality of it is amazing. The prints that you can make with this ink is really nice too. I would recommend this to anyone who likes printing professional pictures at home instead of a store.

    The ink cartridge works for me. Best Buy always has in stock, which I like that about them. The price point is competitive, although I wish it was a little cheaper. I would recommend.

    We find that the gray ink lasts longer than the others and adds to the color photo quality. It is hard to find in most stores so it's great to find it in Best Buy stores, especially when it's on sale.
