Does anyone have any experience of some of the third-party inks for the Canon ip4000 printers?
If it were just the case of a few £ difference, the printer would never see anything but the real McCoy but frankly, being able to buy a mix of 20 cartridges for the price of 2 originals is patently ridiculous.
There are no issues with warranty and I've used 3rd party inks in an Epson 1200 for ages with superb results (Man & Media brand which did extremely well in a magazine group comparison).
Are there any recommended brands for this printer and any caveats?
