iP4300 Does a new iP4300 come with the 5 ink tanks it requires, or must I pay about $60 for a set of tanks?

The IP4300 uses the exact same ink carts. as the IP4200 and IP5200 so replacements are a non issue.

Canon always includes a set of cartridges with its printers. I would be more concerned with the replacement of the empties. In checking the Canon website, Amazon website, Staples website, and three independent cartridge providers, no one sells or lists new cartridges for the Canon Pixma IP4300. If anyone has additional information, please post it.

It comes with ink but the cartridges are supposed to contain just enough ink to setup the printer. However so far I have printed out about six 12 inch x 12 inch heavily colored t-shirt transfer prints and still have ink left. Because the spec said setup ink tanks, I ordered a full set of spares along with the printer. I think that printer manufacturers sell the printers for under cost and then make all their money on selling ink. By the time you replace the tanks twice on many printers, you will have spent more money on ink than on the printer. Just the same, I think it is an outrage not to include a full set of tanks with a new printer. It comes with ink but the cartridges are supposed to contain just enough ink to setup the printer.

Nope. Just the black ink cartridge so far, and the other ink cartridges are getting low and will need to be replaced soon. Other than that, all has been A-OK for many months with this printer. (And I've had about 10 HP Deskjets and similar models since the original in the 1990s. I've never had to replace any ink service module in any printer.)

I bought one yesterday. Will post a review in a few days once I have tried everything out. So far, works fine out the box printing from a camera memory card. If price is everything to you, get an iP6600D at the closeout price.

It comes with 3 generous bottles of STANDARD black ink, not Photo. There's a lot of ink for the money! I will definitely buy this kit again!

The printer has 5 ink cartridges. You only need to replace the one that runs dry. If the other five still have ink you don't need to replace them. I usually buy them in a package with all 5 included to save money. If you buy them one at a time it usually costs more. Hope this helps.

You will need the color ink kit for the correct template; I would recommend another complete inktec kit over those little $2 accordion-plunger ink kits. I mean really, just consider how nicely designed, documented and well-engineered the inktec kit is - right down to the packaging; it felt like unboxing a crisp late model smartphone.

That is an interesting price point! If you think their ink price is disgusting take a look at Ricoh's. Its laser cartridges easily add up to a downpayment on a new house! I did finally get Canadian support on the machine on the issue of making the network server feature work (use Firefox not Chrome if you are on a Mac) and once I networked it, it has not power-failed ever again. The internet server has to REMAIN ON all the time. Don't know how long that will last but it has turned out to be a gem for its low price tag.

You have to purchase the print server...$100 (Amazon) ouch. I had a "linksys printserver" that I could use Win XP to print with. But Windows 7 does not work with the linksys printserver. So I had to purchased the Dell adaptor (printserver, wireless card) I monitored the net for about 6 month's ...You will pay list (ouch) as I did...But now that the pain has faded..I love it. This is the best printer I have ever had..Quality A+ Speed A+ and last but not least Cartridge replacement cost $79-$82 for a 4-Pack (all colors) I almost bought a Brothers at Costco..till I seen the cost of replacement cartridges.

No, you have to buy a higher model to get that. The printer itself is pretty good, but seems a bit sensitive to third party ink.

Yes, I've been using a IP6600D for at least 10 years and a IP6700D for a year or so. Prints great Documents. Great Printers.

if you buy a new one you will get the ink cartage. if you buy a refurbished model, you will not recev' the ink cartage. if you are looking for a printer, i will sell you a printer that was a double order to me, all i ask is that you pay me the purchase price that i payed, which will be $75. i will also include the ink cartage in the printer. the only thing you will need is the usb cable.

Received printer today and amazon description is correct. :( It came with the standard 126 ink cartridges.Also something strange...I just rechecked Epson website, thinking I might contact them about the discrepancy but their site now shows 126 standard cartridges included with the 630?Oh well....You are right until you are wrong! :)

There are 4 ink tanks in the box, the tanks are larger than the regular 200 ink tanksso they last alot longer.

Hi. Yes, the chips do come with the refill kit and are very easy to install. I don't have a page count since I'm still printing away, but I can look at the control panel later and let you know the count up-to-date. I did look at the counters and here is the summary since installing the kit: 962 color prints / 795 mono prints. That's a total of 1757 prints. I still have 87% of CMY and 56% of K, so it seems like it should easily print another 1757 prints before I'll have to replace the K toner.

The printer has 4 large ink tanks. Mine have lasted well over a year with heavy usage.

My ink came in the retail box. It is the same as that came with the printer but boxed for retail. This printer came with full ink tanks So I don't think it makes a difference anyway.
