What customers are saying

The product generally delivers reliable performance and clear, bold printing. Customers find it easy to install and the ink lasts reasonably well for light to moderate use. However, some users report the ink runs out quickly, especially for heavy usage, and feel the product is overpriced compared to the ink capacity. Overall, the product offers good quality and performance, but the value proposition could be improved.

    The perfect place to buy this ink catridge

    Verified BuyerReviewed by - June 24, 2023

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I always prefer to buy this ink cartridge at Best Buy because it's the only place I know can safely find it at a price that can't be beat. Recommended 100%.

    Always has what I need!

    Verified BuyerReviewed by - May 20, 2023

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Thank goodness for Best Buy! I ran out of cannon printer ink, needed it immediately and couldn't find it available anywhere EXCEPT at Best Buy. I placed the order on line and it was ready within 30 minutes. Kudos to the employees. All were friendly and made me feel welcome. Their website is easy to maneuver and locate what you need. Their price was in line with a discount store; however, that store didnt have my printer ink. Best Buy is indeed the Best Buy for your needs. I highly recommend Best Buy! As a matter of fact, I am going there today to make another purchase. Thank you Best Buy!

    Plain and simple....a great value

    Verified BuyerReviewed by - October 22, 2016

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is the first time in almost 10 years that I have bought a replacement ink cartridge instead of buying a new printer. Printers have become so reasonably priced, it is usually cheaper to buy a printer with cartridges than the replacements themselves. Thankfully this is now not true. I grabbed this cartridge at a very low price and don't have to recycle another printer. Cannon cartridges are great and easy to install. The store had them in stock and I was on my way. Glad the price has finally gone down. Exchange discount on the old cartridge as well. Works perfectly and does the trick for me.

    Happy Ink

    Verified BuyerReviewed by - October 24, 2020

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] It is an ink cartridge.....worked fine. I ordered a 245 ( black ) and a 246 ( color )....both standard size....... I was looking for two large capacity cartridges but didn't know their numbers. Each of the two standard cartridges arrived before the announced time....but on different days from different places. That surprised me but it worked OK for me..........I got rid of a working HP printer and replaced it with a Canon from Best Buys because the HP ink was hard to find and way too expensive especially when there were often defective cartridges....So all is well....... Thanks ....joe

    Best choice for basic printing needs.

    Verified BuyerReviewed by - May 22, 2021

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] There's honestly not much to say if you own a Canon printer like I do; it gets the job done, but don't expect it to perform beyond one's basic needs. Ink cartridges have their notoriety for being more expensive than they should, so both the color and the standard black ink cartridges are going to be the cheapest one is going to get. Installation is fairly easy, since your printer should automatically line up the slots where you need to install this cartridge, and they're practically ready for use about a minute later once the printer realigns itself after closing it up.

    Verified BuyerReviewed by - January 14, 2023

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Best Buy always have replacement printer ink cartridges in stock. They are easy to install. The price is high, but that standard for these Canon printer cartridges.
