I read a couple of user reviews on this because I thought of getting one. Every one claims they were nothing but trouble and with the cost of ink (non oem) I couldn't see the expense and potential problems. So far the ink I'm getting from Amazon has been excellent, very vibrant and cheap enough.

It's a dye ink. I can't speak for your printer. But I've used this in my Pixma ip4300 and now my new MG5420 and it works great. Just a couple of things to watch out for. You may have to adjust the ink slightly or change the type of paper used in "settings" depending on the paper used. I use staples brand gloss white brochure/flyer paper. And the best settings I found for my MG5420 were canon photo paper plus II. With my pixma I needed to adjust the actual ink in color settings. But I had to do that with the original canon ink anyway. As for what comes with the kit, make sure you get the little rubber stoppers for the ink tanks. The second time I ordered, I didn't get them with my order. This didn't matter to me because I still had the old ones. The little hand drill they give you is crap, use a regular drill. On the newer ink tanks, you'll have to watch where you drill the hole. You should put it as close as possible to the foam in the ink cartridge to avoid the hollow area they now put in the front. I'm actually looking into getting the constant inking system next, because I'm tired of getting ink all over my finger tips. And you will get ink on your fingers. So when you refill, do it over an old towel. I have 2 old T shirts that now look like pieces of abstract art. Just to let you know. I print a ton of stuff. I do all the print work for my band. So I print flyers, press kits, CD's and the liner notes. This ink has saved me a small fortune. The only downside is that, unless you get a chip resetter (which don't always work) you'll have to shut off your ink level sensor. So you won't know your ink levels. Good luck. One other thing. The ink I got (sometimes they send different ink brands, but they're all good) was photo color. So in settings you may have to make your image darker.

I believe it does since they are not original Epson ink. However, I don't know if Epson would test the ink on the printer if it have problems. I had my cis system for almost two years now and had not had any problems. Just make sure you get the right ink since there are two different types....

When I used generic cartridges, sometimes the printer accepted it and sometimes it would not. So here's what I did: I saved all the original Canon ink cartridges that came with the new printer and then purchased a 2nd set of Canon cartridges (at a discount on eBay). When the originals were getting low on ink I then installed the 2nd set. I then "refilled" the first set with bulk ink from printerfillingstation.com. It's a Christian business that sells superior bulk ink at a discount for your particular model. When the 2nd set started to get low, I replaced it with the "refilled" cartridges. This worked because all the cartridges have the original Canon "chips" on them and you always have refilled cartridges on hand. The only thing you "must" do is monitor your installed cartridges every couple of months, so that ink does not completely run out. This is easily done because the cartridges are in clear plastic. Refilling the cartridges is also a learning process, so be patient, follow the instructions carefully. The rewards are worth it as I am now on the 3rd refills from the same sets of cartridges and my printer is working just fine.

The shinier side is the correct side. I also use the PRO-100 and have had excellent results with the paper. Your designation of the media type as Photo Paper Pro Luster is correct. Try printing with the quality set on "Standard" versus "High", that might help reduce the ink flow. Check the bottom of the ink carriage and look at the print head to ensure there is no buildup on it. It may help to put all your printer quality options on default versus custom to see if this solves the problem. Hope this helps. Also, as DRB stated, using Canon Inks takes the guess work out. Also, refilling the ink cartridge may be the source. The shinier side is the correct side. I also use the PRO-100 and have had excellent results with the paper.

Sorry, I'm not sure. The Pro 9000 is the only Canon printer I have. I would expect not, but go to Amazon and find your printer and that will tell what you need. After my experience I advise getting genuine ink, made especially for your printer and not the so-called "compatible" ones. Hope this helps!

My first thought is did you remove all the tabs that cover the ink cartridges? Also are you sure this is correct cartridge for your printer. My Canon MX892 works fine with these cartridges in spite of what Amazon posts on their sale page. I did purchase another brand of cartridges (black) which leaked all over my printer's insides, but, again, these worked fine. Good Luck!

I agree with the two previous people who posted comments about the Canon MP610 printer. It has been working flawlessly since Feb. 2008 after I purchased a new iMac running OSX 10.5.2 (Leopard). I am also using a USB cable. Last week I finally had to replace two of the color ink tanks. Either Canon has more ink in their tanks or it uses less ink than my previous EPSON printers. And I'm not using my printer any less than before. I also like having individual tanks for each color, CMYK plus pigment black for text only documents. Naturally, I ordered new ink tanks from Amazon because of "best price" and free delivery. I agree with the two previous people who posted comments about the Canon MP610 printer.

Yes and it works great...make sure to print something once a week or every 2 weeks to keep them Epson heads from clogging up and if they ever do not a prob as you can get an Epson head cleaner and oh if that ever happens that's typical of Epson if it sets to long without printing its not caused by the Ciss Cis System or its Ink :)

Hello John.I ordered Skia ink for my MX922 printer and so far so good. No complaint at all. And I can still use the Canon applications that check for a CHIP because the cartridges also have a CHIP.Kind regards,Luc.

We have had extremely good luck with 3rd party ink in this printer. I think nothing of making copies now, as I don't have to worry about the extreme cost of ink. Paid $6.45 for a full set, free shipping with Prime. This is how it is listed: 6 Pack US Patent Canon PGI-225 BK CLI-226 BK C M Y GY compatible ink cartridges for Canon PIXMA MG8120, MG6120 printers). T Surplus was the seller.

Hello, My iMac is 10.9.3. I work my printer closely with iPhoto and am very happy with it. I also get the knock off ink from Amazon and it works fine as well and is CHEAP! I print a lot of "stuff" and have no problems. I also am WIFI.To be honest, my Son walked me through hooking it up....as I've found that it's a bit complicated, but once done, it's been great.

Trust me; please do not purchase any other inks for your Lexmark Prospect Pro 205 except the Lexmark brand. I thought that I could get by using cheaper inks, but for the most part, they just do not work. I have thrown away countless, half full, ink cartridges that stopped working. Purchase Lexmark inks!

The rx595 looks very similar in design to the rx680 I used mine on. It looks like it might work. It just needs enough room inside the printer to operate. I absolutely loved mine. I print a lot, and it wasn't uncommon for me to go through an ink cartridge in a weekend. So, I cannot say enough good things about the ciss system or the company hotzone360! Excellent product. Superior company.

The 1 of 2 special refillable cartridge types you'll need to chose from are easily found if you do an Amazon search for "<Your specific printer make and model> CIS". refill cartridge" and "<Your specific printer make and model> CIS". CIS = Continuous Ink System. I went with the cheapest one I could find in Dec'09 and it's still works GREAT & has saved me $$$! Tip: Wear surgical gloves when refilling ink! These special cartridges come with a reset button to fool your printer into thinking you've put brand new cartridges in.
