Finally, it's not a good deal

I'm not sure if the other reviewers who gave this product high marks were luckier than me, but the ones I've used are terrible. I was typically able to print about 10 sheets, after which one line was legible and the next was broken or faded. I went through the head cleaning steps, same problem. I looked on Youtube to find out how to remove the cartridge as Canon is smart enough not to let you change it until the ink is gone. I put in a different cartridge that was in the box and the same problem. I just hope I didn't jack up my printer. Lesson learned. If you try to save a dollar, you end up wasting more time and money. My advice is to stick with the Canon brand. Yes, you will spend more, but you won't waste time troubleshooting or end up spending more because you still have to buy a well-known brand.
