Advantages: Good colour - long-lasting Disadvantages: They cover idiots in ink
...Hey ho. How surreal to be reviewing ink. Does anyone else do this? Why am I sitting here at 10 o\'clock at night reviewing an ink cartridge? Do I love it? No. Err.......have I had an unusual and vaguely witty experience with this cartridge? Not really. Was I bored and thought I\'d go do a review about the first thing I found that I owned and hey look........2 pound signs!!! Woo! That\'ll be it.
To be fair, I use a lot of these things here and at work (see scintillating review of canon i550) so I suppose I\'m as qualified as anyone.
It\'s good ink - of course it is. Canon would not be popular if their branded ink was pants. It has super coverage and definatly stands proud where you compare it to the compatibles.

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...

Using the quick start guide, this has a step by step guide with diagrams to help you set the printer up. Aslong as you start at the beginning and read the instructions properly you should have no problems. I found it very straight forward.
The print head has to be installed first...
