Why is it that when I go to purchase a copier the ink that is recommended to go with it does not fit the copier, per Amazon?

Hello, Natalia -- I really can't relate to that experience, as, I've always had good luck and no problems with ordering the correct inks, no matter the model of printer. I've bought several printers via Amazon over the past ten years and it's been the same just-right experience, each time -- including the follow-up inks. I always buy the factory suggested, true ink -- no refills/knock-offs, ever, by-the-way. Never have ink/printing problems, either. I wish I could give you a hint as to why you are experiencing anything other than perfect satisfaction in your ink-to-printer purchases.

I recommend you go with what the printer/copier recommends; then order that product from Amazon. That was I did. I looked at what came with the printer, then order the ink/cartridge from Amazon.

I can only attempt to answer your question because I don't know your technical expertise. There two types of cartridges for the Cannon Pixma. One fits the machine right side up and the other fits the machine upside down. Getting the cartridge may be clumsy sometimes but I've never had any problems with inserting a new recommended cartridge into the printer even though it may not be as routine as it seems!!! If the cartridge does not fit one way, I would recommend that you try inserting the cartridge by reversing it and see if it fits. In my opinion, there should be no problem fitting a recommended cartridge into the Canon Pixma printer. I can only attempt to answer your question because I don't know your technical expertise.

Your question isn't really very clear. My advice is to buy the ink cartridge model that the printer manufacturer specifies. Perhaps Amazon hasn't updated their specs with the latest printer models yet. Stick to the name brand inks, at least until you get to know your new printer well, and have had it for a while. The savings on the knock-off ink just isn't worth the risk.

Sorry, don't know what else it could be. Just make sure you've replaced the correct black cartridge. I think the smaller one is the photo ink and the large is regular text...which always empties the fastest for me. I had a Brother printer that would take compatible color ink but would only accept genuine brother ink in black. Sorry I couldn't be more help.

I had the same issue with one of the cartridges. I assume it's the chance one takes with super cheap ink. I did order more and if it has a problem again, I'll just pony up for the full-priced stuff.

Sorry, I cant answer that question. It may be best to stick with the same kind of ink you originally got or a different ink may corrupt your printer.

I really do not know, I'm sorry, check your numbers on your original ink or check your manual that came with your unit. Sorry !

The return Progtam is when you agree to send back the empty cartridges for the factory to refill and send out to buy again. At one time they offered so much for each one one that you returned. Not sure if they still do that. Your cartridge error is the printer does not like the brand that you put in the printer to print with. I used a off bramd one time for it was cheaper and my printer did not like it and if you have a Lexmark that printer is fussy. It has something to do with the lines on the cartridge. I do not buy any thing but Lexmark brand anymore. Love the xl sizes for it lasts so long.

I would say that when you order your ink please send the seller your specific required cartridge info otherwise you may not get what you want. the ink I ordered which the seller did say was compatible with my printer doesn't work on my printer. these inks does not work on my pixma i3600 although the seller says its compatible. Be cautious

I've had trouble finding compatible inks. Brother must have changed/updated their firmware.

I would make sure it is in the correct place and clicks in. If not, it might not be the correct type for your printer

I can't help you there. I always buy the ink associated with the printer. sorry.

It seems that XP 310 will reject at least some of the generics. I'm experimenting with the ink and the printer does not seem to recognize the new cartridge. We shall see how it pans out later... One thing for sure is that this does not seem to be plug-n-play. :(

You need to find out what cartridges your printer takes. They need to be compatible. Go to Ink Images to find out.

As long as you ordered the correct ones for your printer, you should be fine. I just removed the old cartridges, removed the tape covering the ink on the new ones and replaced the new ones directly into the printer. I have ordered a couple of times and have had no problem and am pleased. Good luck. GK

A good question to ask the vendor! The inks are not compatible with each other. (go for the dye)

i don't know. when i buy a new printer i go right to amazon for compatable ink cartridges. i have found sophia the very best. i suggest you search for compatable ink. fill in complete name of your printer. i hope this is a help to you.

It's definitely supposed to work with the type printer I have, but the "colors" were only pale yellows and browns. Don't know if these are old refilled cartridges or what, but I would recommend going to an office supply store rather than wasting money on this particular item.
