Helpful Hints for this Cartridge,
My first PG 40 lasted only 2 months, disappointing as cartridge cost was one of deciding factors in buying my Canon Pixma MP 170. $20 (Staples) was low compared to previous printer cartridge but not for two month usage. With next cartridge, I used “fast” print option and continued to use for 1-2 months after “low ink” message appeared, this one lasted 5-6 months, which is o.k. for cost. I then had one refilled at Cartridge World and it lasted only 45 days, tho I was doing somewhat more printing during that time period. Use “fast/draft” option,and ignore low print message,— just print till it’s out of ink —-and it will last much longer. I will probably buy from Amazon as cost is lower (providing you order $25 and get free S & H) and this is hard to find in my area.

|Good output – ink too costly,
I have used Canon printers for years. I recommend them to people for their low per-page costs…
Those that use THIS cartridge though, are an exception. This cartridge has an in-cartridge ink counter that tells me I’m out of ink way before I actually do run out of ink. Additionally, the counter cannot be reset, so there is no refill market on these forcing you to buy retail.

|PG-40 cartridge for Canon Pixma IP1600,
New cartridge had been received on time and well packed.
Printouts are in good quality.
1 Concern: overpriced.
I must add another concern: not much ink in it. Cratridge is emptied after 2 months of light usage.
