 Canon good product September 23, 2008
This Canon products are good and relaible very happy with the High capacity ink cartridge, I am not happy with the distributor because never answer my e-mail requesting traking number for arrival this is very important for me. Next time I will buy direct from Canon due the lock of information requested.
Thanks.

 Flaw in logic and math of previous reviewer August 30, 2008
3 out of 6 found this review helpful
There is a flaw in the math and logic of a previous reviewer who stated that this cartridge only has 37.5% more ink then the PG-40. The reviewer obviously is missing a very important and significant part of the equation. (i.e. the saturation point of the sponge).
In other words, if the sponge of the cartridge retains 4 ml of the ink. Then the PG-40 cartidge only has 12 ml of effective ink (since 4 ml is retained by the sponge). Therefore a cartidge with 22 ml of ink = 22 ml - 4 ml saturation point of sponge = 18 ml of effective ink. Which would be 50% more ink then the PG-40 cartridge.
You have to consider everything that effects the output of a product when performing a scientific or mathematical equation. Neglecting the unobvious parts of the equation and only focusing on what is obvious and is in "front of your face" results in serious miscalculations and errors in reasoning.
Furthermore, by considering how much ink is retained by the sponge, it also shows that you gain more then you realize when you refill ink jet cartridges. Since the sponge is already pre-saturated with ink at the time you refill it, then any ink you add will be used as part of the output when printing pages. So by refilling this cartridge with 22 ml of ink when it runs out of ink, then you effectively have a 26 ml cartridge. And this applies for every refill, since after the first time the cartridge is filled up, the sponge is pre-saturated and any ink added will be directly used by the printer. Something I think a lot of people who refill their inkjet cartridges do not realize.
I believe the most important thing to look at when purchasing an inkjet printer is which printer is the best for refilling. You can buy a very large bottle of bulk ink for around $20. You can get over 2000 printed pages out of a single inkjet cartridge on this printer. This is by far one of the easiest and best inkjet cartridges for refilling. Granted the Canon has a few annoyances when you refill cartridges, but those are easy to get around, and if anyone has any refill questions I'll answer them in the comment section.

It's fine - it's a good printer cartridge. Never lasts as long as I think it should

For a product that claims "high capacity" the number of pages I was able to print from it was rather disappointing. And this is even when I print most of my documents in "fast" mode.

This ink is always promising; the price is great! It's cheaper to order it through Amazon than to drive the ten minutes it takes to pick it up at the office supply store.
