 Watch your compatibility!! August 11, 2006

Uh, somehow I ended up thinking this would be compatible with my Canon iP5200R when Amazon was out of the regular cyan (CLI-8C) a little while back. Vaguely recall it even turning up when I searched Amazon for the printer's inks /the CLI-8C.
Just found out the CLI-8PC won't work as a substitute. Nope. Zero. Not compatible. A couple printers like the iP6600/iP6700D only.
Looks like Amazon's cleaned up whatever made the CLI-8PC come up prior for those searching for the CLI-8C and particular printer's inks. Now if Canon could put an explicit warning in CLI-8PC listings not to be silly and think "Photo Cyan" can be substituted for "Cyan".
(And oh. When I'm printing 95% black text, why the heck do all my expensive color inks get drained too? I thought I had the PGI-5Bk cartridge dedicated to that use alone, but that's another story. Does make me even more darn unhappy with buying this unnecessarily in the first place though.)
 Beware! Not for the MP800 Printer July 25, 2006

Almost the same name as the CLI-8C except for photos, right? No, this will not work in the PIXMA MP800 printer. Be careful when you order. This is for the PIXMA iP6600D or PIXMA MP950 only.
 Why give 1 star because you order the wrong item December 12, 2006

It kills me how someone can write a negative review for something when it was their stupidity that caused them to order the wrong item. If you are unsure of what to buy, visit Canon's USA site for a list of compatible inks for your printer.

What can you say about ink? I found no problems with it... it arrived quickly, was about $30 cheaper for all 6 than buying them at the store. As long as you ready your printer manual to find out exactly what ink you need, and check the product to make sure you're buying the right thing, there shouldn't be any problems.
Extremely pleased January 5, 2007

Everytime I've purchased any Canon ink cartridge, and I've purchased well over a hundred bargain brand's and Canon's, I've been extremely pleased with:
o no clogging,
o quality print,
o page count per cartridge printing,
o every cartridge printing when installed
The only negative would be their high pricing, but I guess it proves the old axiom "you get what you pay for".
