   Good for just the black, but!, December 20, 2012

   It’s cheaper to purchase the combo black and color cartridges than to purchase each separately. If you do any color printing, I’d suggest getting the combo pack even if you don’t need to replace the colored ink quite yet. You can hold onto it and replace the color later. But if you only do black and white printing, it’s a good option.

   I normally purchase the Canon Combo Pack (twice in the last year) which comes with a color cartridge in addition to this specific black ink only cartridge. My kids have decided they need to print out a lot of text for school this year and have been going through the ink at a rate that I can verify is about 300 pages per this exact same black ink cartridge (Canon PG-240-XL). I’ve never had technical problems with these cartridges, but they’re pretty typical of inkjet prices and capacities. If you need them for your printer (mine is a Canon PIXMA MX432) you need them. For the price I paid it does work out to a tad less than 7 cents per page (I rounded up).

   Storage time is rated at 24 months and I’m looking somewhere for a bulk purchase of this specific cartridge since the color ones aren’t needed that often. I’d happily buy a 3 or 4 pack for a per cartridge discount, but no luck so far.

   Hard to “love” inkjet cartridges, but given the lack of any real problems, four out of five stars.

   NOTE: If my offspring continue to gobble up black ink I’ll probably step up to the apparently more (per page) cost effective Canon PG-240 Double X (XXL) ink cartridge and update this review.

   Had the regular sized 240 cartridge prior and it ran out pretty quick. Have printed about 30 pages so far without any signs of running out. Installation went well. I did not have any issues with the cartridge arriving empty or dry like others did. Might be a packaging or QA problem.
