Good cheap alternative to branded inks

I've only printed a few black and white pages with these cartridges so far, so I can't make any statements about durability or color inks. They get 4 stars because initially the setup was a problem and the black ink is a bit lighter than the brand ink. When installing, the hose to which the printheads are connected is covered with a transparent film, and the instructions say nothing about it. I didn't realize that the printheads would have to puncture this foil and therefore there would be resistance when inserting the cartridge. Luckily I didn't try to remove the foil, just crossing my fingers not to damage the printheads. After installation, the printer prints normally. I'd like the blacks to be a bit darker, but haven't tried adjusting the dimming options yet, so that might help. So far a good and cheap alternative to outrageously expensive branded inks.

Pros
  • Large selection
Cons
  • Useless functions
