Advantages: Vibrancy and quality

Disadvantages: Price

I have owned the Canon MP110 for a few years which I have also reviewed and this is the ink I have used with it. To be honest if you buy original ink cartridges its going to cost a lot in the long run. This is how printer companies generate money, they would usually lose money selling the printer but since they produce ink which is incredibly cheap for them but instead of passing on savings they increase the price to regain their losses and this ink cartridge is no different. An original cartridge comes with 17ml of ink altogether of yellow, cyan and magenta. The average costs these days is around £7 per original cartridge but on the good side they produce amazingly vibrant colours as they implement Canon's FINE technology which can allow as little as 1 picolitre of ink to be injected into the page which ensures sharp pictures. For me an average original cartridge will last 130 pages although it can vary if you constantly print photos then it will obviously render less pages. An alternative is to buy remanufatered ink which is £1 per cartridge and also contains more ink (21ml for colour). Although be warned that colours may be faded more than usual.

Summary: Good overall but remanufactered may be better for some people
