This is a SIXTH cartridge, but unlike Light CMY cartridges used by other printers, this one seems to have no beneficial impact on color. Prints come out dull. Worse, when you're printing only black, somehow this cartridge drains. I print very little color (and no photos due to poor quality) and yet I seem to be out of one color or another almost every time I use the printer. Literally [$] per 50 pages estimated. The cartridges are tiny, run out fast, and the printer will refuse to print, even if you only want BLACK.

      This product is not included in the CLI-221 ink cartridge set. It must be puchased seperately. As far as the ink itself it is a great product.

          Why isn't this gray cartridge included with the color multipack? I have a canon PIXMA MP980 printer.

            A:

            Because the Gray is only used in a few models and the other four are used in many models...

          • VERIFIED BUYER

            A:

            I have the same printer but apparently the gray is only used in some printers using 221 ink so it would be a waste to include it if your printer doesn't use it.

            Gray is one of the colors that Canon uses to create their color spectrum.
