I have a 6320, too but I haven't quite used these ink cartridges with My Image Garden. However, I use them to print my pictures and they come out just fine. I'd try it, though!

I have been using "247 Ink" on my Pixma 6320 since November. There does not appear to be any problems, I just finished a large project with photos and I am pleased with the finished photos.

that is a very good question. I have an mp470. which uses only canon non-refurbished ink and just a few weeks ago, someone mistakenly gave methe 41 instead of the 31. my printer worked just fine (as far as canon ink seems to go, which is revolting in my opinion). but that's the gistof it.

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 use it with my Pixma iX6820 so you should have no problem. My problem is refillable cartridges in general. I spoke with Canon tech support and was told refillable cartridges of any kind do not work well with Canon printers. I am always having problems getting them to work well. Good luck.

I'm thinking of buying this printer. I LOVE using Picasa3. If I buy this particular printer and I will be using Picasa3 and IF I find the same problems you are talking about, I'll get back to you. Thanks for the information you've passed along. I've LOVED my HP Photosmart 7550 but it just quit accepting ANY ink cartridges! Can't find it's problem. Printed beauuuuuutifully.

if you type in the brand of your printer you will be able to use that kind of ink in your printer. It works and I loved it! When I get my new printer I will buy them again. The only issue I had with some of them they were dried out but when I returned them they sent the ones that were dried out and I did not have a problem with them. I just gave them like 2 stars because I had to send them back. Other than that the product was really good and it worked for my canon printer. I had a canon PIXma I believe that is what is is called lol but it worked great

If your ink cartridge lights up when it's inserted into your MP830 and your printer still won't work, then I suggest your printer is damaged and needs to be repaired (or possibly there is a fault with the ink cartridge).Also, 3rd party ink cartridges (not sold by Canon) will not work with the MP830, unless they have a chip on them (or you have to remove the chip from a real Canon ink cartridge and put it on the 3rd party cartridge yourself). Using 3rd party ink voids the printer warranty (provided Canon finds out).

Has anyone tried the site www.simplyink.com for buying Canon refills? They claim: "Our compatible ink cartridges include reset chips which show the correct ink levels in your Canon printer." At only $6.99-7.99 a cartridge, I'm very tempted to try them. I have an MP830 (which I absolutely love - I even brag about it sometimes) & am currently paying $56.99 for the 4-pk of color & $33.99 for the 2-pk of black. I have to say, we do a lot of printing & the ink lasts much, much longer than my previous Brother & Lexmark print - plus, has far better quality (even on it's "fast" setting).

I have slightly enlarged a few to refill.. But stopped.I found that my Canon Chip resetter (Amazon $6) didn't always reset on some used units. BesidesI buy Amazon Cartridges so cheap, it's not worth getting Ink all over my fingers & sink cleanup (for a few pennies)They're so cheap, & good Canon ink isn't free. 1 vendor's case for my MG5220 B wouldn't fit.. ( I wouldn't waste 46 cents to mail it back to Amazon) since all the other carts were OK since I bought extras. Suggest you try 2 different Amazon suppliers to validate their quality to see what works for you! I have slightly enlarged a few to refill..

Absolutely! I have the Canon Pixma MG5520 and have used two of the color cartridges so far and they work perfectly. I have not yet used the black cartridges but I suspect they will work just as well. I previously owned a Kodak printer and decided to try remanufactured cartridges and tried a local vendor. It was a disaster...ruined my printer. I purchased the Canon as a replacement.

I tried on the Canon PIXMA MX922 and they seem to be working fine. Best advice i would give is open your printer software or when it's printing and click on the inklevels and see what kind of printer cartridge it lists for the printer and then compare them with this one. Also check with amazon, if they will accept return before you buy them, just to be safe. Hope it helps.

Just had the same problem about 3 or 4 months ago. I went through all manual instructions and web suggestions. Clean head, run goofy printer maintenance etc. Just barely prints black and no color. Would be nice if their software would just fix their stinking printer. Was speaking to my ink guy (he has become rich off my Canon ink needs) and he said he would try to fix for free. Yes, scared me also. I am taking next week and if he can I will try to determine what he did and let you know. Otherwise it is just a rotten Canon printer. Almost makes you think they have a program that checks the date and when a certain date .... Maybe I am getting paranoid.. but after using a PIXMA that can happen.

Ah, that explains why I suddenly cannot print black & white photos, even though the displayindicates that I have plenty of Black ink left. The image I get is a reddish-gray.I bought the MP620 last month. I am still able to copy ordinary black text, though,probably because the printer comes with an extra Black ink cartridge (which is larger). So the 620 holds a total of 5 cartridges. I'm aggravated that the 5 cartridges do not come in a 5-pack... you have to buy a 4-pack & a separate pack for the extra Black one. [Just in case you're wondering, re my reddish photos, the ink display shows that I have plenty of ink in BOTH black cartridges.] Ah, that explains why I suddenly cannot print black & white photos, even though the displayindicates that I have plenty of Black ink left.

I have a Pixma MG6320 which uses the same ink. The Skia cartridges work fine. The one problem if you want to call it that, is that the canon print utility no longer shows how much ink is left when I check Supply Levels. I will find out if that matters when they run out.

Hello Roxanna, my printer is a Canon Pixma MX420 and it too uses the 210XL and 211XL cartridges. The re-manufactured ink cartridges (PG210XL and CL211XL) fit in the printer but do not work well. The black was OK but a little light. When I installed the color cartridge it did not work at all. Then when I tried to print using gray scale it did not work but was part black, part blue and not complete printing. I have since returned to the original Canon cartridges which work well. The re-manufactured cartridges are lower cost, but their quality makes them worthless. I would not recommend purchasing these re-manufactured cartridges for your Canon printer................ Ken

This cartridge ( the chip ) only works on certain machines. It is a replacement cartridge for a certain canon printer ( description says "PGI-220 CLI-221 Canon Pixma Canon iP3600 iP4600 iP4700 MP560 MP620 MP640 MX860 MP980 ink inkjet cartridges-4BK/4BK/4C/4M/4Y" )1. Is this the right replacement for your printer?2. If it is the correct cartridge, try another one of the cartridge ( if you bought more than 1 )3. Try to wipe the chip ( the little copper plate ) on the cartridge clean with a paper towel.succes
