Review on πŸ–¨οΈ Canon CLI-8 Black Ink Tank - Compatible with Pro9000 and Pro9000 Mark II by Teo Alston

Revainrating 5 out of 5

The best (and most economical) way to buy ink for your printer:

I've had three Canon printers, four of them a portable printer for our laptop, but we don't use the printer with it very often, so I'm not including the ink for it in this review, just the ink in the 8x Canon Ink Pack. I have a Canon Pro9000 Mark II and will only use Canon inks in my Canon printers and I have never used any other brands. I have had no problems with these inks and they work great in my printer. I print a lot of photos and make all my own greeting cards so I use a lot of ink especially around the holidays when I'm making cards to send to friends and family so I need to have a lot of ink on hand! I always buy this 8 pack because it's very economical. The price of individual ink tanks has increased so much in the few years I have been using Canon printers for at least 7 years that they are now more than 3 times the price of individual tanks (both of my last two Canon printers used). tanks with eight different colors), so I doubt I can afford separate tanks now. Now that it's so expensive that I don't like it it's the wisest way for me to buy my ink and I'm a little mad at Canon for the price going up so much, but I like the quality. my Canon printers and since I have 2 HP printers (I still have one but rarely use it because Canon prints better) and I know I like Canon's print quality better and I've read a lot of bad reports (reviews) about Epson printers, I know I don't want to switch to that brand so I have to buy their ink as I like the quality from Canon and the good print I get from them. I get eight packs of ink sent out by Amazon every two months so I think I'll keep going with this for now as I'm happy with the ink. Do I want it cheaper? Of course I would, but not to the point where I would compromise the quality of the print and the quality of my work, which I believe is the lowest price I can get on the market today. If you know a company that sells 8 packs of Canon Cli-8 at a better price, please let us know! Many Thanks. Alphia D Larkins Acworth, Georgia
