Canon 1509B029 ink cartridge 2 pc(s) Original Black

Product Overview

AI-generated summary

At £15.25 ex-VAT for a pair of original Canon black cartridges, this is one of those “fine price, but only if you’re loyal to the exact printer” situations. Original ink tends to behave more consistently than third-party options—less drama with print quality, fewer headaches around clogging/recognition, and usually better reliability for day-to-day office printing. If you print regularly and you want predictable results (especially for text-heavy documents), this can be decent value because you’re buying less hassle as much as you’re buying ink.

That said, if you’re not a frequent printer, OEM cartridges can be a bit of a false economy: unused ink still ages, and cost per page can quickly get ugly compared with higher-yield options (or refills) once you factor in replacements. I’d only recommend this if you know exactly which Canon model you’re using and you’re hitting steady usage. Otherwise, it’s worth checking whether your printer has a cheaper-per-page alternative in the same range before you commit.
