Cartridge Type

	Genuine or OEM (Original) Cartridges	Remanufactured Cartridges	Compatible Cartridges
Description	OEM stands for original equipment manufacturer, meaning the cartridge was made by the same company that made your printer. Original brand cartridges are very reliable and sometimes the only option if your printer is new to market or uncommon.	Remanufactured ink is a genuine brand cartridge that has gone through one cycle of use. After use, the cartridge is recycled, acquired by a remanufacturing facility and put through a rigorous professional refurbishing process. During the refurbishing process the cartridge is disassembled, thoroughly cleaned and tested for quality. It's then carefully refilled, tested again and brought back to life. Buying remanufactured prevents one less cartridge from ending up in a landfill.	A compatible cartridge is a brand new ink cartridge built by a manufacturer other than your printer. It's like buying the generic version of the genuine brand. Most are uniquely designed to differentiate from genuine cartridges. Despite any structural difference you may notice, the cartridge will still fit in your machine and print a full yield, just like the original brand.
Price Factors	Many printer manufacturers follow the razor-and-blades business model which may result in higher priced genuine cartridges.	Remanufactured ink is much cheaper than the original brand ink. It's far more cost effective to refurbish a previously used cartridge than create a new OEM from scratch.	Compatible ink is much cheaper than the original brand. Compatible suppliers don't have to worry about the additional costs that hinder OEMs like new printers or firmware, which lets them keep prices low.
Quality	Original cartridges work extremely well and are covered under a warranty by the printer manufacturer	High quality remanufactured ink will match the quality of the original, but not all remanufactured ink is created equal. Make sure you buy from a reputable supplier in order to get the absolute best results.	High quality compatible ink will match the quality of the original, but not all compatible ink is created equal. Make sure you buy from a reputable supplier in order to get the absolute best results.

What's the difference between ink and toner cartridges?

	Ink Cartridges	Toner Cartridges
Printer Type	Work with inkjet printers	Work with laser printers
Material	Liquid ink	Dry powder
How it works	Inkjet printers use a series of nozzles that spray tiny drops of ink directly on the print suface	Laser toner printers use static electricity and heat to bond dry toner powder to a page
Commonly used by	Casual home users, small business and photographers	Large businesses and schools

Number of Pages You Can Print	A cartridge's page yield is the estimated number of pages you can print. Page yield is based on 5% page coverage. This means that the quoted page yield is based upon printed pages where only 5% of the page has been imprinted with ink. For example, a short memo has approximately 5% coverage. If you have a cartridge that has a yield of 500 pages, it can print 500 pages of that short memo. If you are printing letters, photos or graphics, your coverage will vary greatly and your page yield will drop significantly.
Cartridge Warranty and Shelf Life	Most ink and toner cartridges include a warranty or "best by" date on their box. Remanufactured and compatible ink cartridges can last 12-18 months unopened, and toner cartridges can last up to 3 years.
Cartridge Care and Storage	Only open a cartridge when you need it. Opened cartridges will eventually dry out, especially if the protective tape or clip has been removed. If you have an open ink cartridge around and would like to try and prevent it from drying out, place it nozzle side up in a plastic airtight tub. If your cartridge came with protective tape or a clip reapply both before storing. Place a damp cloth or paper towel in the tub, next to the cartridge and keep it stored in a cool, dark place.

I am a repeat customer for this product and initially tried it due to what I felt - and still feel - is the ridiculous cost of the "regular" cartridge at area stores. The solid quality and ease in getting the CL-31 operational in my printer - the instructions are a snap to follow - has made it THE stop for me without hesitation.

This product was a waste of my time to order. I was in a time crunch for a project when I realized that I was low on ink. Living in a rural community, there are no stores that carry ink cartridges. Thus, I depend on ordering on line. Therefore, I ordered expecting the order to arrive on Friday. On Saturday, I received a card in my mail box that my order needed to be picked up at the Post Office. I was expecting UPS or Fed Ex. Since my mail is delivered in the afternoon, it was to late to pick up the order and had to wait until Monday to get it. Then the ink cartridges did not work in my printer. Now I am either suck with the product that is unable to be used or waste additional time contacting customer service and returning the product waiting for a credit.

Comments about Remanufactured CL31 Color Ink for Canon:

I.ve purchased both black and color ink when ever I place an order, and get the same great service and quick delivery. The remanufactured ink is as good as the name brand stuff at a big savings here at InkCartridges, and they stand behind there products with excellent customer service if needed? I highly recommend them to my family and friends and you too, you will be pleased with the whole process.

Comments about Remanufactured CL31 Color Ink for Canon:

HORRIBLE. DO NOT BUY if you have a Canon Pixma MP210. I had 4 different color cartridges sent and NONE of them worked. They are trying to cover too many printers with the same ink. Just doesn't work. DO NOT WASTE YOU TIME AND MONEY WITH THIS COMPANY.

After Market cartridge wouldn't work.

By Linda

Comments about Remanufactured CL31 Color Ink for Canon:

The cartridge was exactly like the one in my Epsom printer but no matter what I did they would not work in my printer. It kept giving me a message that the printer would not recognize the new cartridge. I purchased a new printer that came with ink.

Comments about Remanufactured CL31 Color Ink for Canon:

I received the order, however, my printer did not recognize it. I called and reported that it would not work and was told that another one would be sent. I received the second cartridge, and it wad also not recognized. I ordered from the manufacturer, Canon. The Canon cartridge works fine. Will send it back.
