Default Canon Pixma ink cartridges?

He is just a scaremongering troll. Ignore 99.9% of what he says.

If he likes to be ripped of by the printer manufactures, that's his
decision.

My opinion is that I would much prefer to pay 0.59p per cart that £9.95 or
even in some cases 0.79p rather than £23.99
Only 3 refills would pay for a new printer, with a set of OEM in thrown in
into the bargain.

I have an IP4000 and the quality of the carts I use are awsome. Paper
quality is an important factor though.

FWIW

Take care Newfdog

I'm on the verge of deciding to change my Lexmark Z517 printer for a
Canon, since I'm a student and print quite lots of stuff (and the
Lexmark ink is generally fairly expensive and nearly
un-refillable/third party ink non-existent). So, I saw many dirt-cheap
cartridges for Canon printers,



YOU CERTAINLY WILL FLUNK OUT OF SCHOOL BECAUSE INSTEAD OF STUDYING YOU
WILL SPEND AN ENORMOUS AMOUNT OF TIME UNCLOGGING THE PRINTER UNTIL IT
WILL NOT WORK ANY MORE. PART OF WHAT YOU SAID MAKES SENSE. BUY A CANON
PRINTER BUT ONLY USE OEM INK.

AS A MATTER OF FACT IF YOU DO NOT WANT TO PRINT PHOTOS BUT ONLY DO SCHOOL
WORK A COLOR LASER OR AN HP INKJET MIGHT DO BETTER. EVEN BETTER (I
USUALLY DO NOT PROMOTE THEM) I WOULD LOOK AT A MULTIFUNCTION COLOR LASER.
THIS WILL GIVE YOU A PERSONAL COPY MACHINE ALSO.



but they fit into BJC models, which
don't seem to exist anymore (and have likely been discontinued for a
while). However, I also saw both a


Pixma iP2000 and an iP2200


TOTAL TRASH



for a
really good price, however I was wondering if the cartridges were as
easily refillable as the old BJC cartridges, or if third-party ink was
available for such a low price. Judging from the pictures I saw, the
cartridges that fit into the iP2200 (which is, I guess, the model
following the iP2000) didn't seem to be the same at all as those who
fit into the iP2000, which are the standard BCI-24 cartridges. Could
anyone tell me if the ink for both of these printers is easily
refillable, and if they're using reservoirs or sponges a-la-Lexmark?
Thanks a lot!



DON'T KEEP JERKING YOURSELF OFF. FOLLOW THE ADVICE ABOVE.


who is this idiot measekite. Sounds like he works for a printer
manufacturer.
