Used for Pixma 9000 pro printer. I wouldn't trust any other ink other than the Canon CLI8 OEM ink. Adorama give the best price by far of all the distributors. Of course I would like the price to be even better because I go through a lot of ink.

PLEASE NOTE: Up-dated review! Reasons For Choice For my Canon Pixma printer I use CLI 8M ~ magenta amongst other coloured ink cartridges.I feel that Canon has earned its title of producing high quality products & supplies. For me, they are the forerunners in quality & design.

This colour ink cartrige produces continuous high quality results

Pricey

These Canon inks are the best for your machine. They keep your printer working as it should. Have been using them for over 4 years with no clogging or blocking of the printhead on my Canon Pro 9000 printer.

I ordered 5 ink cartridges and they showed up within 3 days of my order. I was very happy with the speed of delivery and the price was the best I have found. You can always trust OEM ink. I have never used any aftermarket and my printer is still going strong after 6 years of use.

Definitely more fade-resistant than the previous generation Canon ink (BCI-6 series). However, they've also made the cartridge smaller (fewer mL of ink) and chipped it, which makes refilling difficult.

Much more fade-resistant than previous version

Chipped cartridges

I have used some of the so called off brand cartridges, let me tell you, you get what you pay for, Stick with the Canon
