Some years ago, Which? tested third party inks and refills, and found that they were prone to fade prematurely. (does not make you a bad person). As a result, I've always stuck to original inks, but am now looking to order from the net to reduce costs.

I also bought a Canon printer as they have always in recent times got good results across the board in the Which? tests, with the 'do it all' printers scoring really well in printing photos. They are, if not the most economic, in the top flight for economy of ink too.
