[Request] Canon Inkjet Cartridge Originals

3DES

What places are cheap for Canon original inkjet cartridges for an IP4000?
I usually buy InkRite cartridges from pricestorm.com for the black text ink catridge but I want to use originals for the other colour cartridges.

MisterAnarchy

I buy mine on www.ukdvdr.co.uk
I have an IP3000.
Cheapest on the net for compatible cartridges and the quality is superb.
A set of 4 costs around €5.50
They had a special a few weeks ago where a set was under €4.

Is the quality really that good? I've read that it's better to use originals for the colour cartridges and a compatible for the black cartridge that's used for text.

I read this also in reviews on amazon.com. Did you notice any difference between ukdvdr.co.uk and the canon originals MisterAnarchy?

I notice absolutely no difference between the compatible cartridges and the originals
I print out high quality images / DVD covers on Glossy paper and the quality is superb.
I bought 40 cartridges lately and they are extremely resourceful
The cartridges come individually packaged in a nice box
Delivery is about 19 euro though but if you buy in bulk its the biz.

Quality varies - Roches were selling *Two* three-colour cartriges for only 12 euros for several types of printers. (ie. 2 euros per colour!)

Colour was very slightly fainter in photos than original. But good enough for my tempory printing needs.

Also - apparently different manufacturs inks fade at different rates - important i suppose if you are intending on keeping the prints for long.

Well the Cartridges I use Ozmo are excellent.
Phoenix,Smartwrite,Cybajet,Imjet,Jettec, are all great compatible inks and have been tested and reviewed extensively.
I cant comment on what Roches may be selling .

Roches are selling "@llmarks" (marked on outer packaging) - but no brand mentioned on cart itself. Two for one offer is over - but still good value if they have your printer.

What brand are the ones canon compatible ones at ukdvdr.co.uk? They don't mention what brand they are on the site. For instance:

The black cartridges are Smart Jet and the colour are Phoenix.
