Canon BCI 3eBK - ink tank (4479A002)

An interesting review about........er......INK!

Advantages: Good colour - long-lasting
Disadvantages: They cover idiots in ink

invalidate your warranty and lessen performance. What about my hands mate! Second quibble is about price. These things cost about £9-£10 even in Tesco and don\'t contain more ink. Compatible price - about £3 tops. Well, it is better I suppose, but not that much better for day-to-day printing. Overall - well done canon for making good but explosive and expensive ink cartridges. You get what you pay for. ...

Review of Canon BCI 3E - ink tank (BCI3EY)

Why is Canon so under-rated?

Advantages: Really cheap for a branded ink cart
Disadvantages: Must manually reset ink monitor

Canon has recently pleased me very much. I bought a Canon i450 (also see my review on that) becuase it was the best value for money, and yet this saving on the printer is not taken back by high-priced ink cartridges! Cartridges are easy to install, last just as long as a Lexmark's - if longer - and are only £5 & £10 each! The quality provided by these is great - after two catridges worth of unbranded makeshift cartridges its only now I notice the difference that £2-odd makes. If you have a Canon printer I strongly suggest that the £2 margin is worth the money for the results - two quid! This isn't an HP you know... The only nit-pick that I have is that although install is easy it can be little time-consuming - maunally having to reset the ink counter isn't quite what I'd expect from a top company like Canon. That said, it is ...

Review of Canon BCI 24 - ink tank (BCI-24C)

Good quality but running out quickly

Advantages: Good ink quality
Disadvantages: Small, dry very fast

This is the cartridge I have been using at the most time as my computer is Canon Pixma IP1500. It is also suitable for Canon S200 and S300 series. The original ones are produced by Canon; however, there are many other brands that are producing the same type. Details of this cartridge: Volume: 9 ml Colour: black Printer technology: Inkjet Print yield: For text, one tank can last for about 150 pages; for text and charts, one tank lasts for about 100 copies. The pages recommended on the online selling web site are 130. Price: Around £2.00 to £ 3.00. The best way to buy is on eBay. There are lots products there. You can choose original products which may be expensive or choose cheaper products from other producer. Pros: 1. Cheap to buy and easy to install. You don't need to worry about installation if you want to use this ...
