How can I tell if this is a genuine Canon cartridge (made by Canon)?

Adding to the previous answer, the cartridge normally comes in a sealed, heavy, non-transparent, black bag.

Good question. I have the same thought but have decided to trust the supplier. I believe you can tell how well the cartridge is packaged.

Barb: the price for a canon cartridge is about $70 at Amazon which is the best price I found. I tried 3 cheap remanufactured cartridges for less than $20 each and it they all failed so I purchased the real canon cartridge. Can't beat the real stuff.

I bought from Amazon. The genuine Canon cartridge comes with the red boc backaging( same red box that you see in the above picture),and you will see some paperwork from Canon inside also. Normally the aftermarket comes in a no name packaging others name ( not Canon).

It should be in a sealed cardboard box (no tape on it - it has a strip you pull to open) that says 'Canon' on it and 'Genuine' - and usually runs around $60 and up. Hope this helps.

this was billed as the genuine Epson cartridge. The packaging, etc., look genuine and I actually switched cartridges once in mid-print when the old one ran out. You could not see where the new one took over. If this is fake or a refill, it's a damned good fake or refill. I fully believe it's Epson original.

Yes, I believe this is the genuine OEM product. There is another inexpensive supplier I also bought from whose cartridges leak when opening, but they work just as well. I believe this supplier is the genuine one.

The one I received was not a real Canon Brand battery. It looked like one but the packaging did not contain the authentic Canon hologram. The backside to the battery was different and also felt heavier. I was able to return mine and Amazon refunded me the money. Though the battery looks the same, ones that aren't authentic Canon brand batteries can actually damage your camera. Beware!

From every which way I can tell, I am almost certain this is a brand new genuine HP cartridge, not an HP compatible. At least that's what I received.

I am not sure it is a genuine Canon part. However, it fits perfectly and works, so who cares?

Yes, it is a genuine Canon battery. It shows the same battery onthe Canon website.

There was no date on the cartridge. Was sealed like authentic BROTHER ink but I have my doubts. I got a new Canon printer for Christmas and will buy ink only from Office Depot or Staples.

I bought mine from J&R; Music. This one has all the correct markings on it for a genuine Cannon Battery... and the price is about right. If this is exactly what you get from them in the mail I think it is the genuine article.

I am another customer as well, but I had the same concerns you did. I received a genuine Canon LC-E6 charger in an original Canon package when I ordered this. I compared it top to bottom with the one that came with my girlfriend's Canon D60 she purchased at Walmart. No difference. It has the Canon logo stamped in it, same stickers, everything. Charges my batteries great. Genuine Canon product.

No, it is not. It's a knockoff brand. I actually ended up getting refunded 1/2 the money I spent because I was upset for being sold a knockoff instead of the Canon brand. With that being said, I bought the battery in 2010 and it still works great. No issues. I would buy this battery again, just not for the price I paid.

I purchased this item and the one I received was a true Canon product. I even went out to the Canon website to check their "How to spot a fake" section and it seemed to pass the test. By virtue of that, the warranty should be honored.

As far as I know it is an original. I have 2 of them and they work great. I like this model because the battery sits down in the unit when charging and it has 2 separate light indicators, "orange" while charging, and "Green" when complete. For your question, on the back, it has information about the charger, and at the bottom, it says "Canon Inc. Made in China". It doesn't have any of the misprints in spelling that are found on many of the knock-offs, so my opinion is that it is a Canon product.

I purchased this to replace the one that came with my camera that stopped working. Can't answer about it's authenticity. The Canon name was not taped over on mine. It works fine and is identical to the one that came with my camera. Hope that helps.

If the carton is a Canon carton, and sealed, and the cartridge is sealed in aplastic, bubble style bag, it is a genuine Canon product. If the box has been re-sealed or the cartridge is not in a sealed bubble pack bag and does not contain a red-tipped zip strip across the opening of the cartridge, then it is a re-fill. However, if you are in doubt, return the unit and purchase a new one at a local office supply store or order one directly from Canon.

Yes it is a genuine OEM Canon battery. Works very well and I've had no problems with it. In fact I hope to buy two more in the next month.

Hi, I can't tell by looking at the cartridge if it's a OEM or a remanufactured cartridge. If your printer is telling you that it's not genuine,then it's probably not. I hope this helps.Ernie
