Summary: Don't waste your time and money!
Review: I first bought this product from Office Depot thinking that the quality of the product would be the same as OEM. It isn't! I tried two ink cartridges with no success whatsoever. There are streaks, smudges, and lines across the page. Finally I went back and bought the OEM. Don't believe guarantees will make this the same quality as OEM!

Summary: Fantastic product
Review: I've run though about a dozen of these cartridges and they have been fantastic: both the color and black cartridges have given me great copy. I've saved hundreds with these cartridges.

Summary: Protect The Environment, Get Horrible Print Quality
Review: When I saw this cartridge at Office Depot, I thought it was a great idea. Do a little service to the environment AND save a little money. The concept is great; the quality is terrible. At first I thought they forgot to refill the cartridge, because the print quality was so bad. But it was heavier than my old one. So I did a "clean", and found I had plenty of ink.

It consistently prints like a cartridge with a dirty head--complete with streaks and smudges--yet cleaning it has little effect except to waste ink. Apparently, the remanufacturer does little to ensure quality. They just fill it with ink, maybe dip the head in some cleaner, pack it and ship it: I guess. It would take a lot of convincing to get me to make another go of refurbished inkjet cartridges no matter the cost savings.
