I bought this in June 2013 and placed it in my Canon multi function printer a year later, when the initial cartridge ran out. I don’t do a lot of printing so it has lasted for me. However, I had to do a lot recently and checking the printer information it said there was two thirds left. After printing 50 pages, this was reduced to one third. I am thinking a false positive somewhere. Even if it wasn’t, I will need to consider buying another soon and if Amazon is cheapest I will get from here, as the results are good, as it’s the proper cartridge.I paid £17.35 in June 2013 and its £16.49 at September 2016.Good if you are a casual printer, no so good if you need to print lots. As it is widely known,

Canon is a brand I always trust when it comes to printing, these cartridges are exceptional quality and I can definitely tell the difference if I was to use a refill ink cartridge.The XL cartridges come in handy as they print over 600 pages of A4 print approx. at normal printing quality, if you use draft settings on your printer you will obviously get a lot more than the suggested amount. I tend to notice that they last longer that’s me personally. I think they’re good value for money also, as I really do rate the quality of the print - I have always used the original ink in the printer, I’ve owned it for so long and it prints really well.This ink just seems to work so much better than cheap

Arrived when it should have. Easy to fit,straight in to my Cannon Pixma MG3150 no problem, as it should be, a Canon cartridge, going into a Cannon printer. Once I had done head alignment check,the ink and print quality of this cartridge was excellent. Have tried cheaper own make cartridges from some well know stores,and have had problems of these cartridge not working at all, or very bad ink and print quality.So learnt my lesson,go fro the genuine article. Yes this cartridge is expensive, but you get what you pay for,as they say. After all that's how Cannon and other print manufactures make their money,not on the actual printer, on the replacement ink cartridges.

Great replacement cartridge and arrived very next morning. These are genuine, seen and unfortunately brought fakes before but these are the real deal. Go through so much ink it made sense to get the XL and so far noticed the difference,last at least double the amount of prints compared to the standard size. Have brought a few of these now on Amazon, however usually only when on offer as usually cheaper in supermarkets, however with lockdown I didn't mind paying the extra. If you are after both black and colour make sure you go for the double pack as way cheaper then two singles.

Easy to change, It's a very good price for a factory product. It makes buying the compatable ones hardly worth considering (which can fail if your printer is updated or cause your printer to not recognise any ink at all)How the XL is different to the standard, by the looks of things nothing is different identical in size and shape but contains more ink.Provides a good crisp colour and lasts a reasonable amount of time!Prints "upto" 600 pages which rivals some toner based printers when you comapare price per page

Excellent service! Ordered 28th Sept and received well ahead for the forecast delivery date of 7th October. All items arrived in really very strong cardboard boxing - and via Royal Mail signed for Recorded Delivery! I like the inclusion of a 10% discount voucher for future orders plus a Recycling Envelope for expended ink cartridges. Prices for the inks are the lowest I've found so far. Highly recommended! Future customer assured - and I've recommended this to my PC user friends.Laurence

Having previously owned another printer make whose ink didn't last long at all I was amazed to find how long the Canon XL ink lasts. When I first got my printer and needed replacement ink I bought the standard size, not realising I could buy XL. Next time around I found that I could get the larger cartridge and so I did just to see if there really would be much of a difference. I am now a convert and will in future only buy XL - it is definitely worth the extra!

I previously wrote a review (see below) indicating that I might have received a dud 540 XL cartridge, actually there had been a glitch with my printer. The cartridge is now installed and working correctly. Amending review.I normally purchase the canon 540 (not XL) ink and maybe I have just been unfortunate, but this 540 XL ink produced a message - not recognised by Canon MG3150 printer and I have been unable to use. So this is money wasted.

Arrived on time and well packaged. (Although overkill on the use of plastic). The print quality is excellent. I ordered the PG540 XL this time instead of my usual standard PG540. I'm hoping this cartridge will last longer. Although there are plenty of non Canon cheaper alternatives, I find the branded Canon are the best. I will monitor how long this one lasts compared to my prior purchase.

Thought the item was a bit pricey compared with what I have paid before, but most places were out of stock or not able to deliver owing to lockdown. Needed ink to print out worksheets from school, so no option to wait.Other than price everything else perfect. Arrived when it should, usual high canon quality. Pleased with the order overall.

Official Canon manufacturer printer cartridge received with bags to recycle my old printer cartridges was a nice touch. I have dispensed my old black and white printer cartridge in this bag. Cheaper than Currys as well. I am happy with the product I have purchased from yourselves and I hope your business grows because you deserve it.

Buying this XL sized ink refill is better value than buying the standard size. Although slightly more expensive it reduces the cost per page of printing by at least a couple of pence.Its a bit like a Diesel engined car, although the fuel costs a little more than petrol you will get more mpg which more than offsets the cost.

Canon inkjet printers are not exactly economical with the ink; therefore, as a student, the amount of printing I do would drain the cartridges incredibly quickly. The XL cartridge has overcome this problem and is far and away better value than the regular version. The print quality, even on draft setting, is high.

I have used a load of these for my canon printer and have always had great results. No problems at all. Always loses a star for being quite expensive though, they don’t need to be so come on canon cut the margin and sell these all day long. Happy to recommend over the compatibles
