How well does the "LINKYO Compatible Canon 128 (3500B001) Toner Cartridge" live up to it's 2100 copy claim, and what about the print quality?
1884044
I am on my eighth cartridge and all but one was adequate. The one that did not perform was sent back and I received a refund. With the price very good and shipping fast, I am mostly satisfied.

I can't really tell much difference in the print quality of the Linkyo cartridge and the original Canon cartridge. The Linkyo cartridge quality is good, although it may be a little lighter. I don't know about the 2100 copy claim as yet.
1884046
I doubt 2100. It's hit or miss. I order 2 or 3 at a time, usually 1 of the 3 is only going to get you half what you expect, but the others do well. For the cost, it's worth the trade off in my opinion.

The print quality is as good as one should expect from an OEM and yield is also on par with my expectations. I don't have the exact number of page counts per cartridge as I haven't kept track using the printer settings, but perhaps I should to see how close I can get to the 2100 sheet claim.

To be able to get that print yield, you have to pretty much print the same ISO template 19752 or 5% coverage. Else, it is tough to quantify with what you print. For me, if I just print word document, I can manage to get close to 2100 Pages. But, when I print shipping labels with those bar codes etc.. including the packing slip together, I can only get 1/3 of the yield and it happens to be the same with OEM. Therefore, I am sure that no one can safely guarantee that you will get the yield with whatever you print. What Linkyo probably can guarantee is that, if you use the ISO template, you will get 2100 pages.

I didn't count pages as this wasn't a priority as much as the print quality... which was excellent (no less than OEM) and the price is right!

My experience is that the print quality is unacceptable (very faint text, like it's always in economy mode), but I seem to be in the minority.

I use item T0 0054370 Linkyo LY-0263B001 Black Toner Canon 104...I copied it right off my last packing list from SuperMediaStore.com. $24.99 total. You get about 2500 copies depending on coverage. I buy one for the shelf every time I put one in the machine so that I can get free slower delivery in about a week. Never have had a problem of any kind. Hope this helps.

I have been using this and other such toners for my canon from or through Amazon with 100% satisfactory results -- no difference in any way (to me) from Cannon originals. Emptys, I would assume, results from a manufacturer's error. Send them back and get replacements, or call Amazon customer service -- I have found them accessible and responsive.

I have two different Canon laser printers and both accept this toner without any errors.

Laura, have the same system, and this toner cartridge has been working well for six weeks. The only negative, the installation instructions are a bit vague; so look to the original manual for insight.

So far all I know is that the cartridge was perfect and no problems. I just bought the second one, and it's performing just like the last one: no problems!

The original cartridge gave us about 700-800 copies. This cartridge which replaced it, according to the printer, has printed 1034 pages (I have my doubts about this number though) so far without any issues. Since last two days the toner low message is back and is consistently on but little shaking makes it work. Let see how far it will go. Will keep you posted on the final number.

Yes, definitely don't waste your money on the brand-specific cartridges. Global Toner is one brand that I've had good experiences with. All of the other brands I've ordered from have been pretty hit or miss for me with a bunch of leaking cartridges. No issues with Global Toner yet!

I haven't had to change a cartridge yet. I have used generics with other printers and they seem to do okay.

I haven't monitored the copy count very closely, but I've tried a lot of after market toners and this brand prints dark and sharp. I'm very satisfied with the print quality. And I don't have to shake the toner cartridge until it's almost empty.

James,I am trying to decide between the canon 830 AiO and the epson artisian 800. If you look at the negative comments both printers receive high marks for being ink pigs!have you tried more pages with the epson? is it still using as much ink? I wish thw=ere was some way to tell which printer is worse.

Its to funny that you'd say that about compatible replacement cartridges. I have a small Canon i560 printer and used compatible cartridges in it - since then, no matter that I've since replaced them with Canon cartridges - it prints 2 brownish lines at the end of the page. Pretty aggravating - have tried everything to fix this - looks like the only fix there is is to buy a new printer - would you buy the Pro 9000 again if you had it to do over.

As far as the print quality on plain paper, I don't see any difference. I don't know about photos, and I don't know about how long they will last relative to the originals. I use mine in a printer located in a second home, from which I print things only occasionally, so I can't really compare the Canon ink cartridges on the latter two points.

I buy mine from 4inkjets. They guarantee their cartridges to work and I've never had a problem with anything I've bought from them over the years. They are way less expensive than the OEM cartridges.

FX9-10 at inkjetsuperstore works and it's priced around 31.00 US ~ I normally stay away from generic/3rd party toner because of the lack of quality. I ordered a case of these (3), and found the yield to be less than 2000 pages, and I had some blasting and buildup after I had finished using the 3 carts. For large print jobs (450+), I use my old HpLaser Jet , it's cheaper per page.

PS I have printed 50-100 pages/day for the past 8 months and this printer works great. I'm not going to risk fouling it up with "generic" (clone) cartridges.
