Does this gun come with ink already installed? Or do I have to purchase ink when buying?

It came with an ink roll in a seperate plastic bag and it is very easy to install.

Hi yes the new machine will come with everything but the printer cable you might need in some situations in setting it up. however the first set of ink is like 1/4 the fill of standard ink cartridges I do suggest you consider getting your refills right away. That being said the main reason I personally chose Brother is that it will accept generic filled ink cartridges without all this special bar code stuff other machines do to insure you only are using their brand. So go ahead and buy generic works great for me.

It comes with a full compliment of inks. You will enjoy the quality of this printer.

Yes, it comes with ink. Than register and Epson will give you 10 percent off on replacement ink.

Yes it did come with ink, but they are not full cartridges and did not last very long.

It does come with ink, but I suspect the cartridges are only partially full, as most places do with the first set. We bought our printer Fall 2013, and with fairly regular home printing, we are only now replacing the black cartridges 6 mos later. As for what ink, we just bought a compatible multi pack on Amazon, though they usually won't let people list brands in comments. It is 4 black and two CMY, and reviews seemed fine, so we'll see. The Brother type is LC103, LC105, LC107.

The gun is supposed to be included. The same thing happened to me, contact the seller and they will send it to you.

It comes with ink, but they are start up cartridges and therefor the ink is minimal, like when you buy a new printer.

We purchased a new unit. I believe it does come with all four starter ink cartridges. We've had the unit in our office for about a year and have gone through a few of the color cartridges and the black.

Yes, a full set of ink cartridges is included. You will probably find that the ink cartridges get used up at different rates, so don't buy an extra set until you see what colors your pictures are using up.

I don't believe so Andrew but I've been printing casually for about two weeks and I have not run out of ink. That being said I did order extra ink when I purchased this printer and although it is aftermarket ink I have not had to use it yet. If I had to estimate how much I've printed it would be about twenty pages so I'm really not a good gauge on how much ink came with the printer. So my advice would be to purchase replacement ink when you buy this printer whether it be Cannon or generic just do it.

I buy mine online from www.inkjetsuperstore.com. Great service and prices. No issues to report.

It does come with ink, or else it would be pretty darn useless. :) Ink and the applicators to refill a cartridge (several times).

Yes, I bought some. Can't tell the difference with the one that came with the gun, either in operation or in looks.

It comes with its own ink cartridges, and they are long lasting too! You will this printer to be very cooperative and not fussey or finickey like other machines. this machines ink cartridges are also economical to buy. Mike

It came with cartridges. So, you do not need to buy them separately until you run out of ink in the cartridges that came with the printer. However, we were printing a lot of colorful "art" projects and got low on ink (certain colors) very fast. It never hurts to have an extra set of cartridges handy!
