Does this product come with dye or pigment ink, and how well does it work with canon mg2220?

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.

No it will not work for the mg3200 because the color cartridge is multicolor (3 colors in one cartridge). The canon printers that use single color cartridges (cyan magenta and blue) will work. Canon mg5200 , mg5300 will work with this system. they have separate ink cartridges for each color.

I have the Canon 6320. It requires a total of six ink tanks: 1 Pigment Black (PGI-250), and five color tanks (CLI-251). The five colors needed are Black (which is not the same as the Pigment Black), Yellow, Cyan, Magenta, and Gray. If you buy this combo you will still need to get the Black and Gray CLI-251s separately. (Note that only the high end Canon inkjets use Gray ink - none of the combos include this one.)Note that you can also buy XL inks which are a bit better value, but are not sold as a combo at this time.

I don't know the different between Dye or Pigment Ink, but the quality is pretty good. I used on both HP printers, they works great.

I have a Canon MG6320 and it has 5 little slots and 1 big one. Different Models use the same ink but some do not require the grey tank. Mine does, if I'd known then what I know now, lol.

Just another voice...I used this ink in an MG5220....it works fine for me...occasionally I have had to clean my print head after inserting a replacement cartridge but this has only been once or twice.

have an MG5420 printer & were compatible with no problem(s). I didn't use all the cartridges at the same time coz some of the original still had ink, but as soon as they ran out, the printer took it with no issues. I think your MG5520 will take it as well since it has the same type of cartridges. And the color output is not much of a difference compared to the original...Pricewise, there's a big difference...Good luck!!!

Katherine- You should always cross check the following source to make sure- Canon USA.com. One you get on the site enter your printer # and it will display the proper information. The answer to your question is no. The MG 5320 takes 225/226's. The ad is advertising/selling 220/221's. Each manufacturer is constantly changing cartridge design to prevent 3rd party lost sales of ink. It is a mega billion $ business. If you like the ink and it runs(recognizes) the chip in your machine, then stick with it. 3rd party inks tend to be less vibrant for photo's- OK for ordinary paper copy stuff. It really depends on your application. Good Luck.

I honestly don't know. I tossed this cord after I discovered that it would not work with the Canon PIXMA MG2220 that I had ordered. As you are aware, the USB cord does not come with the printer (shame on Canon). So, I ordered an extra cord. Well, the cord wouldn't even fit the connection. I tossed it in the trash and ended up using the one I had from the defunct MP560. Sorry, I can't help you with your question.

Bao: Yes it will work...The PIXMA MG3120 is known for extreme usage of ink so i would go with a generic . If the generic is detected just ignore and print until new generic runs dry, then replace with same..It will not hurt your printer,,,I have a Epson xp-410 and thats all i use is generic ink ..... Smoothborte00...

The answer is yes. Go to any store that sells canon ink cartridges. Look on the combo pack savings package for 240xl & 241xl ink. The package lists all of the printers you can use this ink for and MG3520 is included.

I own a Canon MG5220 and have had great success with "Canon compatible" cartridges ordered from Megatoners online. I just ordered 9 new cartridges (my machine has five cartridge slots and I had one still left from the last order) and am paying less than $25. No leakage and no chip issues and no muss and fuss over refills. Address: www.megatoners.com

Hi, I've owned two excellent Canon printers with 5+ ink cartridges each. Because I do a lot of photographic printing, I run through my inks more quickly. I actually keep a chart of when and which colors get replaced. I am able to anticipate my replacement needs better that way and can have spares on hand in advance. In my case, the colors that I use fastest seem to be yellows, then magenta which surprised me. I am looking to purchase another Canon printer and will only look at ones with individual ink tanks.

Shanna, We just received this via Amazon and put it in our Canon Pixma MG6620. There is no problem. it works fine. The only difference between this and the 251 is that this one holds 2 1/2 times more ink.

Looked at the Canon Website and the MG5520 uses the same cartridge. Look at the Owners Manual to be sure, but I bet the all the 5500 series uses the same cartridges.

Hi.... My printer is an MG5320 and the refills work fine. My suggestion would be to email Canon, and ask their customer service if your 5420 has spongeless cartridges. I got my original edible ink cartridges from KopyKake, kept the original printer cartridges wrapped and stored. When I needed to refill my KopyKake cartridges, I ordered these refill from Amazon. They're great!
