Just installed the black ink only. The print result is almost the same as the CANON black ink, perhaps a tiny bit lighter. For the price, this is very good. Hope all other colors perform well also.
Update 6/9/2018 after about two weeks the black ink no longer printed. Tried to replace it but Canon would not pop out the cartridge if it was not empty. So I tried deep cleaning. The printer warned it would use lot of ink and I went ahead anyway. It worked!
Update 10/21/2018 I ordered a set again recently and it arrived quickly. Unfortunately the yellow cartridge was missing from the box. Very disappiointed and had to return it.

Those cartridges DON’T work. You will be getting a product that you will not be able to use. Before making a review otherwise please use your cartridges few days and you’ll see. Constant error messages, shady prints when you get something from the printer, cleaning and cleaning does absolutely nothing. Very poor quality product. Also took FOREVER to deliver !! Not satisfied … not even going to try returning or ask for refund.

So far no problems. No error messages when installed. Still have the black cartridges to install, when required, not expecting any problems. I gave it a 4 only because I found the deep red’s were not so bright, but for what I use my printer for that is not an issue. Yes I would but them again and would recommend them.

I’m happy I got this. It’s a good price. Gets tons of ink. Last forever. Better then any ink I’d ever bought. If you want good ink. But this. I find it prints better then the 100$ stuff. I’d buy agin and I will.

Works as advised. The colours are indeed a bit pale and muddy compared to authentic canon ink, and the reds often tend to look more like burnt orange. Otherwise works fine.

I had a Canon MB2720 that worked flawlessly for 2 years. I have always used original Canon ink,but I wanted to save some money so I tried these ink cartridges.After the first print I started to see streaks in my copies.After a number of cleaning and deep cleaning the printer head is still clogged.Now I got to send in the printer or get a new one.Avoid like the plague.

Have ordered twice before, never had any issues. Only used off brand ink in this printer without causing damage, so no complaints. Ships reasonable timing considering postal delays currently. No problems installing. Very good value for cost. Print quality isn’t top rated, but it works for my needs just fine.

Been heavily using a black cartridge for almost two weeks. Have had no problems with the print head clogging or a decreased print quality from the original factory ink. Everything seems to be working fine. I will update my review in about a month after I use all the colors and use the second black ink cartridge.
****Update**** Been over a month of using this ink. Still no problems in my MB2720. No clogs, no color issues, no problems at all. Printer has sat for up to a week and a half with no usage and has printed fine when I have asked it to. I have not cleaned the print heads during the two months I have owned the printer. I would still recommend this GPC ink for the Canon MB2720.
Update 03/29/18 – Ink is still working well. No clogs, no print head issues or print issues in general. I have yet to clean the print head. My only problem now is the price of this print cartridge pack went up about $7 since my last purchase (paid $17-ish originally).
Update 06/16/18 – Ink is still working well and I have had no problems with these cartridges. I placed another order due to the price coming down to $20.
Update 01/11/19 – Printer still works fine. Haven’t cleaned the print head in months. No issues at all with the ink or print quality. I am only using this ink for regular, everyday printing. I am not printing photos or anything important. Price is under $20 so I ordered more.

Prior to ordering from this vendor I used other 3rd party inkjet cartridges with no issues. But have issues with the very poor quality ink supplied by this vendor.
Details… I ordered twice from this vendor. Placed one in the machine and set the other aside in reserve. And the initial set seemed to work OK… at the very beginning.
As the first set was starting to run low, the Cyan (C) color suddenly stopped printing completely despite having ink. Cleaning and deep cleaning multiple times failed and in the process the Black color cartridge started to also clog its corresponding nozzle. Pulling out the second set of cartridges I replaced the Cyan and Black cartridge, but to no avail as both were well clogged and a deep cleaning did not help.
I had to remove the inkjet nozzle assembly on the MB2320, which is separate from the inject cartridges, and cleaned it in hot water. Once clean I reinstalled the inkjet nozzle assembly, the ink cartridges and started deep cleaning. The Cyan color now worked, but the black remained clogged and further use of the black only made it worst. Now had large streaks of white, that should have been black.
One observation, when I cleaned the separate inkjet nozzle assembly I noticed large black particles in the water (coming from the black ink). This was bad. A well made ink should not have large visible particles in the ink. And it quickly became apparent that it was these particles that were clogging the inkjet nozzles.
Do not recommend using these cartridges. And I now have to either replace the printer or the inkjet nozzle assembly.

If I could have given this no stars, I would have. This ink wrecked my printer, do not use it! As soon as I installed the in cartrige, the prints began coming out really dull then progressivly got worse to the point where anything I printed was full of streeks and wasn’t even readable. I tried changing back to canon brand ink, did a deep clean, and realigned the print heads but the issue persisted. Had to purchase a new printer in the end. Very very dissapointed!

In the past, I only used laser printers as the cost per page using toner was lower. But not anymore with this low cost ink option being available.
For the cost, I’m surprised by the quality. I couldn’t tell the difference in color compared to originals. Installing the cartridges was a breeze for the printer as they simply pop in with a perfect fit.
What amazes me more was that after using the new ink, the prints came out faster compared to the original ink that came with the printer. I’m guessing it’s because they ship new printers with such little amount of ink. I’ll follow up on the print speed once this set of ink runs low to confirm that theory.
After 3 months, I’m definitely still happy with the quality, cost, and unnoticeable difference vs the original and will definitely reorder the same set when the time comes.
One suggestion for the manufacturer is that they include a sealable bag to store and dispose used cartridges. I made the mistake of leaving a used original ink cartridge out and some ink leaked out.
Update: 5/27 I’m at 75% of the ink now and the printer’s startup time to print is slow again.

I’m not sure if the other reviewers that gave this a high rating were just luckier than me, but the ones I used are terrible. I was able to print about 10 sheets normally and then one line would be readable, next line broken up or faded. I went through the head cleaning steps, same issue. I looked on Youtube to figure out how to remove the cartridge since Canon is so smart to not let you change them until the ink is empty. I put in the other cartridge that came in the package and….same issue. I’m just hoping I did’t jack up my printer. Lesson learned…when you try to save a buck, you’ll end up spending more time and money. My advice is to stick with the Canon brand. Yes, you’ll spend more, but you won’t waste your time trying to troubleshoot issues or end up spending more because you’ll have to buy the name brand anyway.
