Summary: Recycled cartridge: good - recycled; bad - poor print quality
Comment: I bought a recycled cartridge for the sake of recycling - there was little or no cost saving over a new one, though it's supposedly filled with more ink and so will hopefully last longer. Unfortunately the print quality is not up to par: I'm getting a lot of bleeding and smearing, it's good enough for everyday printing like driving directions or rough drafts of the kid's essays, but when I want something of letter or resume quality I have to use a different printer. It does not register on the printer's ink level detection as the seller stated in product description.

Summary: Never had a problem
Comment: I've been using the same printer with the same cartriges (not the same cartriges literaly, I mean, I run out and buy another... you know what I mean) for about 3 years now and never had a problem, hopefully it stays that way!

Summary: I Need More Ink
Comment: Well, I can't get too excited about a review for a ink cartridge. What I can say is that ordering through Amazon is always a safe bet at a quality price. Very happy with my ink.

Summary: Not enough ink in PG-40 Canon Cartridges
Comment: I bought an MP470 printer on 9/4/08. I put in a full black ink cartridge (PG-40)and made no more than 30-35 copies on regular paper. It shows that it needs to be replaced. I called Canon and was told that the average number of pages would be 355 for one PG-40 cartridge. I thought the cartridge might be defective but the tech support person tells me that it would show an "error" on the printer if that was the case.
I will continue to use the cartridge until it totally runs out of ink but I am very unhappy with the number of pages I was able to print.

Summary: Why not recycled ink cartridges?
Comment: Canon has made it almost impossible to use recycled ink cartridges. They are not alone. There should be a more economical and environmentally friendly alternative available for purchasing ink - not just the limited options imposed by a monopoly held by the manufacturer. Just think if you buy a car and could then only buy gasoline from the car manufacturer!
