Upsek Compatible Ink Cartridge for Canon PG-245XL 245 245XL, 2 Black, Use for Canon PIXMA MX492 MG2520 MG2920 MG2922 MG2924 MG2420 MG2522 MG2525 MG3020 MG2555 MX490 Printer

I tried the first cartridge in my printer. The printer software indicated that a print alignment was needed. I tried to follow the instructions, but never got the printer to function correctly. I took the first cartridge out and tried the second that I had purchased. That one seems to work with no problem. No alignment was needed. It will take a month or so to use this one up and then I will retry the first (failed) cartridge. I will update you at that time.Response to above was fast and effective. I am fully satisfied with the process. I will use again!

This ink works great with our MG2522. We have not been able to use any other non Canon ink with this printer until now. We had no issues with compatibility. I do not know how long it will last compared to the Canon cartridges, as we have just started using these. I will update and change my review if I find that they do not last as long as I feel the value is worth.

Received the cartridges' promptly. Opened package, no real clear install instructions. Could not get cartridge to work. At one point my printer starting both the new black cartridge & my all ready installed color cartridge were both damaged. Ran printer alignment, head cleaner, etc. several times over to no avail. I had something I had to print that day, so decided to open 2nd cartridge & luckily it worked. Will see.

If you're looking to purchase a compatible ink cartridge replacement for your canon, I am telling you, for the price, this is worth it!! This ink works as good as the original but for a third of the price. Everything that is printed on paper looks clear and concise as if you have one of the original Canon ink cartridge in the printer. Packaging of the item was pretty safe and sturdy. I would definitely purchase again once I am out and save money at the same time!

Much cheaper than original Canon ink. Honestly, most ink cartridges are a scam by charging you much more than they cost to make, and by using a chip that renders the printer useless after "x" amount of prints. This is about the best deal you can get.

I dunno why but for some reason the colors went dry after very light use in only a month. When I say light use I mean I used it maybe three times for 4 pages total. The black is still going even now. No idea what is up with the color catridge.

Print quality was excellent and ink was a good value for the price paid. Very happy with this purchase.

It takes a few tries for my printer to recognize this ink and I do get a message often that I’m low on ink when I am not, but that doesn’t bother me. The money I saved buying these vs the brand name is with it!
