I always hate buying new cartridges. The expense always seems so unnecessary. That being said, I've never dropped the hammer on 3rd party ink, because the results with these are so good.Used with a Pro9000 Mk2.Longevity is terrible, especially if the machine isn't used for long periods. This is my primary gripe. If they lasted longer, they'd be 5*. There always seems to be lots of ink left in the cartridge when the dreaded "empty" warning pops up. You can always squeeze a bunch more prints out of it before the colours start to be affected, although I must say the warnings of impending doom and irreversible print head damage usually have me changing the thing before I get to this point.Print quality is at professional print shop levels. As in, those old school stores that develop your film and do wall sized photo prints for sale in galleries. That good.Buy them. You'll be cursing the expense until it comes time to see the results. Just make sure you spent that money twice, so you can have a spare set for when they run (not so) dry.
