Customers are saying

Customers are satisfied with the ink quality, overall performance, and ease of installation of the CLI-281 ink cartridges. Many appreciate the cartridges' compatibility with their printers and their availability in stock. However, some customers express a desire for larger cartridge sizes and question the value due to the standard capacity.

    I usually print more in black and white however I decided to get color cartridges, I find they do not last long can not really print a lot of copies in color also the black seems to run out often also. I just feel for the price of cartridges you should get more copies.

    it was empty inside, and I bring it back they thought I changed it. maybe it was dry by the time or expired. I do not know. And I bought same thing so much cheaper than this from another store. Next time please sell something within market rate and make sure it did not expire or empty. Thanks god they gave my money back, but worker did not want to change because of best buy rule.

    It’s fine ink but the printer isn’t my favorite. This box also only comes with 4 cartridges but the printer itself uses more and in different shades. Curious why they don’t match and provide all of them in the multi-color pack...?

    You get what is in the picture.. but they don't have all the cartridges the printer need.. so I end up having extra of the ones I don't use that often. I wish they sell them separately or all the cartridges in one box.

    Waste of ink

    The problem I have with this printer and these cartidges, is that if only one runs out, you have to buy all of them, I often have to replace all the colors, sometime leaving some of them with more than 50% ink left.

    I replaced my HP print for a canon multi function printer. The printer uses the particular toner. The cartridges are small and the pack is very expensive even the single cartridges are expensive also ink runs out very fast so I find myself replacing the cartridges every other month even though I only use the printer a few times a month.

    What I expected. However it's extremely expensive for what you get.
