Is this a dye or pigment based ink?

It is a Dye ink. I cannot tell any difference from the Manufactures ink. 6 very big bottles of ink. A Great value!

What I received is plainly marked "Dye Ink". It prints quite well for our needs in our HP Printers.

I am not sure and unable to get to the printer at this time. I am moving. Thanks Bob S

the black ink in this set is a fade resistant dye based ink, it is formulated to be just like the original epson ink.

The ink that comes with it is a starter (says my husband). But after a year of moderate use (3 reams of paper used) mine shows all four colors 3/4 full on the 'starter' set. I hope this helps.

It's white.....all I will use is white. I print with an Epson pro. photo printer using pigment ink, which is made by MSI (Ink Supply). Hope this helps.

It's a dye ink. I can't speak for your printer. But I've used this in my Pixma ip4300 and now my new MG5420 and it works great. Just a couple of things to watch out for. You may have to adjust the ink slightly or change the type of paper used in "settings" depending on the paper used. I use staples brand gloss white brochure/flyer paper. And the best settings I found for my MG5420 were canon photo paper plus II. With my pixma I needed to adjust the actual ink in color settings. But I had to do that with the original canon ink anyway. As for what comes with the kit, make sure you get the little rubber stoppers for the ink tanks. The second time I ordered, I didn't get them with my order. This didn't matter to me because I still had the old ones. The little hand drill they give you is crap, use a regular drill. On the newer ink tanks, you'll have to watch where you drill the hole. You should put it as close as possible to the foam in the ink cartridge to avoid the hollow area they now put in the front. I'm actually looking into getting the constant inking system next, because I'm tired of getting ink all over my finger tips. And you will get ink on your fingers. So when you refill, do it over an old towel. I have 2 old T shirts that now look like pieces of abstract art. Just to let you know. I print a ton of stuff. I do all the print work for my band. So I print flyers, press kits, CD's and the liner notes. This ink has saved me a small fortune. The only downside is that, unless you get a chip resetter (which don't always work) you'll have to shut off your ink level sensor. So you won't know your ink levels. Good luck. One other thing. The ink I got (sometimes they send different ink brands, but they're all good) was photo color. So in settings you may have to make your image darker.

My shipment included 3 black pigment containers, but no black dye. Can I use the black pigment shipped in a printer black cartridge container, or should I buy regular black dye ink to fill the regular black cartridge in a MG5520 printer?

It appears to be virgin newsprint, as there are no visible signs of ink anywhere. It also has a slicker texture than the newsprint commonly used in our local newspapers. I have been very satisfied with it as a packing cushion.

I don't know the different between Dye or Pigment Ink, but the quality is pretty good. I used on both HP printers, they works great.

One of the black cartridges is a pigment-based ink for lower res text printing/copying. The other is dye-based like the color cartridges for higher quality, "business" documents. Hope this helps.

They are dye based ink, hence the low price. Pigment colors are more expensive but last a lot longer.

I did a little research on the cannon website. This is the ink that your printer can use.

Thank you for your email. According to HP documentation for this printer, The ink types are "Pigment-based black, dye-based color". Regards, DAVTECH Computer Center

Use a pigment based ink. Lucia PGI - 9. We have a Canon 9500. This also works for the 9500 Mark-2.

The ink color is Black and it is between medium and thin point. I do not lie fine point and somemedium or a bot too heavy or thick, This is perfect.....Such a handy thing to have and carry with you. I would buy it again if the need was here.

I wouldn't use this ink for that. It's archival on paper. I would use black StazOn instead!
