Great replacement for official ink, great value to boot!
I have been using this ink for my Canon MX922 inkjet printer for 3 years, ever since I bought the printer. I first found it on Newegg, but since it was priced better on Amazon, when I finally ran out a month ago, I bought it here.GENERALMy printer never complained when I inserted this ink in place of Canon branded cartidges, and never thought it wasn't using quality ink. This ink pretty much matches performance drop for drop with Canon, and you get a WAY better bang-for-buck.PAPERI never noticed bleeding or any sort of problems with the ink bleeding or clogging until 6 months ago, and a deep cleaning completely fixed that. I use pretty run of the mill paper, nothing fancy, and since I have been printing more while teleworking during COVID, I have found, even at high sustained volume, that this ink does a great job printing with accuracy and precision. I have printed tomes of text, and mixed photos and text on legal paper just fine, as well as using the photo tray to print on cutouts of that paper in non-standard sizes.PHOTOI own both legal and 5x7 photo paper, high gloss (for that like-film, early 2000s pharmacy feel), and occasionally use it for printing photos I mean to hang up or send to loved ones in the mail. I have always found this ink to properly reproduce colors from my computer, using the official Canon drivers on Ubuntu and Windows just fine. It's probably not quite accurate enough to fool the trained eye, but it gets the job done with vibrant hues and a fantastically wide color gamut that my wife and I are more than satisfied with.CLEANINGI have used the built-in cleaning routines twice with my MX922 printer. (I have also disassembled the printer once to take care of a stubborn jam I was the cause of, giving the printer a deep clean while I was at it.) More recently after giving it the deep clean, I have had great success unclogging nozzles when I leave the printer sitting for months unused. Since I have printed more during COVID, clogging has been an issue less and less. I abhor the absurd ink level warnings Canon pops up, but the ink works down to the last drop. When I stop seeing cyan, yellow, or magenta, I really do pull out a COMPLETELY empty cartridge. No swirling extra unusable ink pool for "quality feeding" here. Less waste and easy replacement makes my wife and me very happy.SUMMARYI trust this ink brand. As weird as the name is, it holds up and 3 years of usage has provided an excellent testing experience. I'll continue buying this as long as I have an inkjet.

Great ink with good results for things you aren't keeping long term or does not need to look perfect
I have been using these ink replacements in my Canon MX922 for over 1 year now and I have to say they are amazing with a few caveats:1) The ink does overspray sometimes, so the print isn't super crisp like it is with the Canon ink. It's not blotchy or anything, but some letters are thicker in some areas than others - so a "t" in one place is not the same as a "t" in a different place in your document. It's fine for everyday use, but if you are printing out your resume, you might want Canon ink. I print stuff out for work and school a lot, but it's nothing that is going down in history and for these everyday uses this ink is just wonderful.2) Pictures are okay - if you are printing for your photo album, you want Canon ink and paper. If you are printing out pictures for your kid's school report, these are just fine.3) Once in a while you will get a cartridge that is not made quite right - you think it is seated correctly, and it is not. This won't break your printer, but you will get an error code telling you to shut down your printer and restart it, and you will still have an error code. You have to open up your printer and go to the cartridge that you just changed prior to the error code and see if it can be removed and replaced easily and ensure it isn't crooked. It most likely is not in right and you will have a difficult time getting it out and then seated correctly. They have two pins at the front of the cartridge and if these are not manufactured exactly right the cartridge won't fit correctly, and your printer won't work. It's easily fixed by removing the cartridge and replacing it with a different one. So far I have only had this happen one time, but I wanted to let other people know how to fix it and why it happens.In summary, save the brand name ink for stuff that needs to look perfect and important stuff.For everything else this stuff is amazing, and I feel like it's Christmas when I get this much ink for so little in comparison to the brand name ink :)I hate spending more than my printer on ink to print stuff out that I only need temporarily (the printer is $90 and a complete set of XL ink is something like $150 - super ridiculous).

I'll not buy any other brand now that they have opened a store! Jarbo ink is THE best compatible Canon ink I have ever used!
I have tried several brands of compatible ink cartridges, but of the three brands I have tried, this is the ONLY one that was true to the OEM colors... I purchased my first set from WalMart, but when I went back to order another set, they had discontinued selling it! I panicked!! The Jarbo brand wasn't sold on eBay at that time, so I looked everywhere for it, and I found one seller on Amazon, but they were charging a huge shipping fee, so I passed, and bought another brand. It was simply too expensive for my blood!! Then I ordered another brand. Boy was that a mistake! My photos came out faded and with a greenish cast to them, which was unacceptable, so after like 6 e-mails back and forth with the second company, they finally decided to send me a prepaid shipping label, but I'm still waiting for my refund. So, as long as I can buy these Jarbo cartridges, I will buy them till I die!! I was using my last replacement when the new order came.... So now I'm waiting to install a set in my Canon MX 922 to see if they're the same as the original ones I purchased!! I surely hope so! The photos are superb, however, I must tell you that the paper you use makes all the difference in the world in how good the photos come out. I started using "Canon Photo Paper Plus Glossy II", and this paper coupled with the Jarbo ink makes the most beautiful photos I have ever seen, and you will absolutely agree if you use this combination.

Disappointed
I purchase these cartridges a while ago and just got to use it recently. When I put them in, I realize that cyan and magenta lights go off after a second. I tried other cartridges, and from the four available — only one Magenta worked and none of the Cyan. Yellow seems to be OK (the first one), and others I didn't try yet. Colours are dull compare to the originals but OK for non–colour-sensitive jobs. Since the deadline for the return passed, I contacted the seller, and they offered a small partial refund.

Caused Canon MX922 to stop working
As soon as I replaced the old ink cartridge with this one, I immediately got a B200 support code. I really needed to print an important document and this is the biggest letdown. I'm beyond disappointed. DO NOT BUY THIS INK FOR CANON MX922, THIS INK RUINS IT

Incredible value for money!!
Good quality . Sure beats the refill type - both in convenience and cost.

Good alternative to brand name ink at a fraction of the cost
I did not use this ink for printing photos.For regular black printing and with color this ink performed well.
