Canon5225B006 Ink Cartridges, Black

Dont waste your money. These are absolute rubbish, our printer would not work while these were fitted. Spent hours cursing the wifi connection then followed my wife's advice through gritted teeth nipped to our local Tesco and bought a matching pair. Not a single problem since the Tesco purchase were fitted. Find it quite disturbing Amazon sell such inferior products.

NOT GOOD ! ! !...Not impressed at all.......they are a rip off......then bought another pack later last year..........again twice this year.......probably printing 50 pages and the colour runs out...then 50 pages more the black runs out.....Purchased this pack less than a month ago...same problem colour has gone already...... this is so expensive and Costco sells them for less than £ 10 ! No more a customer.

NOT GOOD ! ! !...Not impressed at all.......they are a rip off.....Have purchased these cartridges thru Amazon the last 2 years or so since I bought the Canon MG 4250 printer...problems since purchasing the first pack 18 months ago...thought it was a one off......then bought another pack later last year..........again twice this year.......probably printing 50 pages and the colour runs out...then 50 pages more the black runs out.....Purchased this pack less than a month ago...same problem colour has gone already.......Canon have a big problem....To me they are only half filling them in the first place..........not paying this price again....will look at refilling locally....

My printer has a mind of its own. It must have been a cat in its last life, before it became a printer, because to be honest it just does what it feels like and sometimes it just can’t be bothered. It’s petulant, there is no other word for it. When the printer decides that it wants to work, this ink is the stuff it needs. There are 2 cartridges in the box, one colour, one black. Just like life, sometimes things are black, sometimes things are in colour. I wish my printer was as reliable as this ink. It’s great. It’s proper inky, which to be honest is what you expect of ink.

One thing I’ve learnt with my canon printer is to buy original cartridges and not the ones that have been re-filled. The last lot I got from Tesco that were refilled I got about 3 sheets of faded prints so I replaced them with these. Have been using for a month now daily for about 5/6 coloured sheets a day and they are still coming out nice amd clear and bright.
