Have a brand new MX922, concerned about non OEM clogging heads w/ long term use. Any issues with that? Last Canon lasted 7 years (was stolen) on OEM.

This won't really answer your question but rather a suggestion. As maintenance I suggest cleaning the print head using the option menu on the printer. By using this non OEM ink you would save enough over the lifetime to buy another down the road with the savings but my experience so far has been great. Print quality even to print photos is amazing.

the best one I've found has been tonerrefillkits.com they have a no questions asked warranty that's actually no quaetions asked and they are super friendly and I've never had a toner problem, they are a little more expensive but nowhere near OEM cost and you get it with the life chip correctly programmed... none of the cheapos have been reliable, short life, lines on paper, dumpa bunch of toner in the machine... the OEM Canon 128 toner is crazy expensive

I specifically bought it because it was "OEM Canon" -- Original Equipment Manufacturer. I don't buy knock-offs. I've had no problem with this ink. You are correct to be careful.

This is very easy to install to printer, make sure you are using right cartridge or check printer. I am using Canon MX410 more than 5 yrs but no problem at all. Also you must buy NEW cartridge no refill cartridge, they may be cheap but sometimes not work.

No, the MX922 uses CLI-251 http://www.amazon.com/Compatible-Cartridges-Blake-Printing-Supply/dp/B00D91WDQQ http://shop.usa.canon.com/shop/en/catalog/pixma-mx922-compatible-inks The MX920 should be the same

I have owned the printer for 2 1/2 years - no problems with the print head (do you mean the cartridge carriage?). I would suggest you call Canon customer service. I have found them to be very helpful.

Thanks CAMPJEEP.Most of my photos will be outside, so it sounds like I should be able to expect well over the stated 260 shots (CIPA standards).I'll purchase a backup battery to be safe. Probably the Maximal after market battery listed here on Amazon. Only $3.45 and the reviewers say that it lasts as long as Canon's.Thanks again.

as i have stated before, they seem to be as good as oem equip. for a pixma 922 i think they are better than the canon ones!!i find that all of the cartridge printers i have used tend to clog far too frequently - that is canon (2 types) and HP (2 types). in all cases, it is fairly simple to do the clean process regardless of the printer.i have never had a leakage problems with any of the printer - cartridge combos that i have owned.

The dreaded B200 error message. Sorry to disappoint you, but your 5220 is dead now. Search "MG5220 B200 error" on google and among the rants you will find some advice for re-seating print heads, cleaning electrical contacts, etc, but none of the suggestions worked for me or many other people. Canon customer service will be happy to offer you a loyalty discount to replace your old 5220 for a newer model for a discounted price HIGHER than what you can buy the newer model for on Amazon already.

I did encounter that error code just last week (after the printer was only 14 months old - fresh out of the warranty) and I did a lot of research. It's usually a bad print head. But what caused the head to go bad in the first place is the question. It could be an over-voltage issue from a bad circuit board (that would also need to be replaced) or it could be that you ran the printer with a dried up ink reservoir, which over-heated the print head, or it could be that it's really dirty and would have to be cleaned (although I didn't encounter anyone who eliminated that error code by cleaning it). So you have a few options: you can drop $70-80 on a new print head that may not fix the root problem and get damaged again, or you can take it to a repair shop and pay out the nose, but know it's repaired correctly, or you can just hedge your bets and buy a new printer (NOT a Canon). I opted for the latter and just got a new Epson. I'll never get another Canon printer.

Mine ate batteries as well, a lot sooner than yours. Check the reviews - most are excellent, but there are a few of us who have had battery problems. See if Canon will send you a new model.

You can keep trying, or you can order a Japanese-made Canon part for about twice the price (but WAY less than the list price) from Honk Kong. I did, and it was a genuine Canon part; works perfectly. Well worth it!

Assuming you get it from the same seller, I don't know, you'd have to ask them or look a little closer than I did and see if it says something about a warrenty in the ad. I probably should have looked, but I figured if the replacement print head didn't fix the problem, I wouldn't know whether I'd gotten another defective one or there was something else wrong with the printer. New heads are around $75, so I figured if this didn't fix the problem, I'd dump the printer entirely.

I am refilling three Pixma printers with these cartridges and have experienced no problems whatsoever. A bad print head is a Canon problem possibly aggravated by refilling them at Costco, not by using non-OEM ink refills.

Yeah - Did the cartridges and the print head (cost $40 on eBay). Already had tried cleaning the old head in case it was just a clog.

I have an IP7220 and I am about 3/4 of the way through my box of 30 cartridges with great results. I had a couple that were bad, but it has been a great value. I am not convinced that they will damage the canon printer, but if they do, I will buy another $100.00 printer with some of the money I saved. I ran generic cartridges in my old epson printers with years of great results. I will purchase again.

I haven't had any issues. I've had mine since the beginning if August and shot 3 full sets (100+ images each time) with no issues.
