I have tried various brands of ink over the years and have found the "NCR" 
and "Universal" brands about as good as any on the market. I used them in 
Epson and Canon printers with no problems. Photos print as well as the brand 
name ctg's. Have only used them about 3 years so don't know how long the 
prints will last before fading, although all inks will fade eventually. It 
is important not to expose them to a lot of sunlight.
I have found Walgreen's and Big Lots a good source. Prices usually run 
around $7.95 to $10.95 for black and $9.95 to $12.95 for color. Sometimes 
Walgreen's will have a buy 1 get 1 free sale.

FWIW

Subject: [PCBUILD] Inkjet ink replacement


Seeing as though I'd like to avoid OEM catridge prices, I have a question 
re: aftermarket replacement cartridges for my Canon ip4000: I have heard 
that gg inks are of good quality and not like some of the cheap imports 
(many/most from China I think), which can clog the print heads. Are there 
any other ink vendors that a reader of this forum can recommend? Actually, 
I'd try the manual refill method, but the potential mess doesn't seem worth 
it. Thank you very much.
