I give three stars only because it had a free printing paper in a photo style. I printed 2 images and the quality was excellent, as if they were real photos taken with film. Besides that, the usual... The colors when printing on A4 paper are awful, the printing capacity is nowhere near what it should be, and it runs out too quickly for the money it costs.

Every time I was tempted to buy a non-branded ink, it ultimately wasn't worth it. Canon is both more reliable and produces more prints, and the image quality is clearly superior.

I believe that based on my experience and from other printers I have had in the past, even using refilled ink cartridges in various ways, I have concluded that branded products have the best results. Now, for this specific product in the multifunction printer that I have, it is the only one that has been used, with spectacular results, both in terms of duration, quality, and performance. Even after long periods of non-use, when it was used again, it was as if I had just installed those ink cartridges. So, it is a worthwhile purchase, not for photographic use (as a large amount of material is consumed), but simply for everyday use, printing needs of a family that includes children (students). This is the fourth time I have purchased it, and I think as long as the Canon printer is functioning (5th year of operation), I will continue to use these.

First time buying it and I am quite satisfied with the package. It also includes 50 sheets of 4x6 photo paper. However, I haven't tried it yet!
