i usually go onto Amazon for my inks, and get the generic one. i have also used reman and they so far have always worked, that's for the canon pixma printer. normally if a company is in business, nowadays, the product normally works, or they make it right, because otherwise, with internet rating, they quickly go out of business. that's why i like amazon, because the customers rate the company, and you can see the feedback right there, and if you get a bad deal, you can write your opinion right on amazon.
