anyone whose bought the MP 210 changed Cartridges yet? (silly question) how many prints did you get from the original carts? i ask cause i have printed out just 1 full colour A4 print plus about 4 small documents, and the colour cart is already showing 1/4 empty! Ta!

I've printed 2 large A4 photos, 1 A5 size photo and 2 small word docs and its showing 1/4 empty too!

Presumably the carts with the printer contain hardly any ink-suprise, but i wonder if new original pg 37/8s hold any more.
yes i know pg40/41 has more ink.

roddydogs

can anyone give an update on how many prints they got from the original carts?

roddydogs

They cant be that bad "Numerous test wins for our Printer and Ink Cartridges, e.g. 10-times price-performance winner in one of Europes most widely read computer magazines Computerbild 11/07! "

As you can see on there German homepage on the right hand side all the awards they have won http://www.druckerzubehoer.de/shop/impressum.phtml?lng=de_DE

Of course you are going to defend your company, not had problems with pictures fading after a few months.

. As for the awards, there are too many cartridge companies coming out with this so called test, and believe it or not they are all German tests..... why not French or UK or USA? Think about it.

Maybe because its a German company ?

I've been buying my Canon inks for the Guys (and Girls) at Stinkyink.Com for ages, and they are telling me now that all of the prices have just gone up from Canon - also because of the rise of the euro against the pound is making them more expensive to buy from Canon. They've got a good range of compatible and original inks all with free carriage

they cost more then they do in town
