But, yes BEFORE I went CIS I used this ink for about 8 months out of the 60+ carts I had gotten only 2 were bad but I had replacements in 4 days
- Very good colors and the black is black not dark grey (like HP carts) and they seem to be NEW carts each time I've got them(not refilled carts) I still have 2 full sets of carts (JUST in case my CIS ever fails ) - If you don't print a ton of pictures or DVD covers/cases I would at least try these carts - You really can't beat $14 for a full set of carts!
