BEWARE! It is cheaper to pay the exorbitant Canon prices for ink than to buy from 4inkjets.
In my last $50 order from 4inkjets for ink tanks for my Canon PIXMA MP780, over half of the cartridges were no-name cartridges made in China (of course) in blue, green, & white boxes. Almost all of these cartridges leaked excessively when I opened them up even though I was careful to not squeeze the flat sides during the process. In the last 6 months, I have had to replace the print head in my printer twice (over $60 each time), and I believe this was because of excessive ink running into the print head from these defective cartridges. Several times, in replacing the cartridges, as I was starting to install them in the printer, the ink would suddenly start running out of the cartridge all over my printer, desk, & the waxed hardwood floor creating indelible spots that won't come out. So much ink runs out that the cartridges sometimes last only a few days before running dry even though I average printing only 3 or 4 pages a day. Today when I replaced a cartridge, I soaked up the ink pouring out of it with tissue paper until I thought it had quit leaking. In less than an hour my printer quit printing that color and still would not print it after repeated cleaning. When I removed the print head and tilted it to examine it, ink of that color poured out all over my desk and floor. 4inkjets refused to make a meaningful adjustment, offering only to replace the cartridges if I returned the cartridges to them, both the unused cartridges & the used (which I had thrown away).
