User Ratings and Reviews

5 Stars Keep spares on hand, you’ll need them
As another reviewer noted, these cartridges are hard to find and not necessarily “bundled” with the others used by an MP-980 since the other printers those bundles work with don’t necessarily need this particular one. Amazon sells the real thing, not a generic knock-off. Good pricing too.

5 Stars Excellent Transaction
I received the printer ink before expected and it was packaged well, incurring no damages and the price was very competitive. I couldn’t have experienced a better transaction. I’d have no reluctance in doing business with this seller or making a purchase with this seller in the future.

5 Stars Valuable information
I was able to disable the ink monitoring system by holding the stop button on my MP980 for about five seconds. I have done this only for the gray and only to print until I get a new cartridge. It appears by my testing that this system is re enabled by installing a new cartridge or removing and reinstalling the old one. This is explained in the online manual that came with the MP980 although it is buried. Tim

1 Star Canon 2950B001 CL-221 Ink Tank (Gray)
Amazon shows this product Canon 2950B001 CL-221 Ink Tank (Gray) works with the Cannon Pixma MP620 printer but Cannon says it ONLY works with the MP980 printer. So, beware before you purchase this item for any printer other than the MP980 printer!

4 Stars In agreement with most other reviewers
Amazon does offer the lowest price on the Canon CLI ink cartridges. But the price for these inks, IMO, are still pretty high, especially considering the size of the cartridges. If MP980’s CLI and PGI ink costs decrease in the future (hopefully real soon!), then the rating would definitely increase to 5 stars.

Thank you Amazon reviewers for all your comments. Because I thoroughly reviewed these products (online and in-store) and the associated commentaries, I now know that it’s best to order these inks through Amazon (until some other seller offers lower pricing). I will also be sure to keep extra inks on hand;so I never have to experience down-time with my MP980.

I love the Canon PIXMA MP980, and knew beforehand what to expect as far as print quality and associated costs. So I have no complaints about the printer itself (other than its costly inks). But, I do think one gets what they pay for, and I do tend to go for better quality items.

Thank you Amazon and Amazon Reviewers.

5 Stars I LOVE my CANON photo printer!
I would highly recommend this Canon Ink to anyone printing pictures at home. I own a Canon MP610 injet all-in-one photo printer, and I love it!! The ink is the most affordable I’ve found, and I buy it right here on Amazon! You are sure to get high quality prints at home using this ink!!

5 Stars Good for Money
After research I found that this was a good ink value for the money and that has proved out.

5 Stars Canon PGI-5 Toner
Canon PGI-5 BK 2-Pack Pigment Black Ink Tanks

I recently ordered the PGI-5 2-pack toner from Amazon and am very satisfied. Although it took about a day or two longer to ship than I anticipated, the price was excellent and it arrived in excellent condition.

5 Stars canon ink
Too soon to review because I’m still using the ink cartridge that came with the printer

5 Stars Canon ink
Not much to say about printer ink. This is what is needed for my Canon printer and works great. I’ve always bought my ink from Amazon.
