for the price and what you get,you can't beat the price. I think the price of the compatibility products speak for themselves. They seem like a great deal and when the wallet gets tight you for it. I have tried them and although not to bad, in the end when it comes to cleaning up your printer or having it serviced for problems, most of the time it turns out to be the ink. Another issue with the compatibility tanks is the number of failures. All this has done is screw up my print head. Stink with OEM.
