Canon CLI-42 8 PK Value Pack Ink, 8 Pack Compatible to PIXMA PRO-100

I gave it three stars because of the price. Otherwise perfect.

Love the ink. Hate the price. Why does it have to be so expensive?? It is cheaper than Staples, even with coupons.

Love these inks but too cost and might need to sell a kidney or two.

Purchasing multiple ink cartridges begins to bring the price down to something near affordable. Ink cartridges are obscenely overpriced, so the only option is to purchase them in bulk packs.

Product does exactly what its supposed to do. Would recommend to others,

Canon makes an incredible printer, bottom line. And as a photographer who does all of his own print orders, I cant have a photo that doesnt look EXACTLY like it does on my screen. This ink is fantastic, and despite its high price, I am getting quality that I havent from generic brands. I am certain the ink is subject to drying out, and heres why. I printed maybe forty or fifty randomly sized photos and had to replace several cartridges. But, I got a huge order in and had to print 80 8x10s in two days. I only replaced three cartridges; one had been brand new, two were slightly used already from a previous order. Unfortunately, I am in a down time right now, so Im afraid what ink I do have in there will not last as long as it could if I used it today. But its the same thing with camera batteries, cards, almost everything. Use it, or lose it. And I dont mind too much. I think in its prime, it cost me about .50 to print an 8x10, and in its down time maybe twice that. Im going to try to figure it up soon. Hope Ive helped!

As seen

Ink for my canon printer

very good

The first package we ordered (earlier this year) looked exactly like the photo on Amazon. The package came with all the colors in their own boxes clearly never opened before. However, we just re-ordered this item and although the box says Canon, it does not look like the first box we got. Also, the ink was just shoved in with paper and a total mess when we opened it. Im not sure if it was re-packaged or if Canon changed their packaging. Ive only needed to replace 1 cartridge so far so its hard to say if the ink is actually any different.
