Has anyone tried printing on these with a canon mg5420? How was it? Any glitches?

Yes, I have printed over 50 DVDs with my Canon MX922 & Canon MX882 with not problems at all.

Just another voice...I used this ink in an MG5220....it works fine for me...occasionally I have had to clean my print head after inserting a replacement cartridge but this has only been once or twice.

I have not tried to print photos with my Canon printer, but I haven't had one problem due to ink quality.I believe they have done us Canon users a service by providing us an alternative.

There should be a list of compatible machines. My Canon MG5320 uses them quite well.

I tried on the Canon PIXMA MX922 and they seem to be working fine. Best advice i would give is open your printer software or when it's printing and click on the inklevels and see what kind of printer cartridge it lists for the printer and then compare them with this one. Also check with amazon, if they will accept return before you buy them, just to be safe. Hope it helps.

I have an MG 5420 and they work just fine. So far none of mine are leaking and they fit right in my machine.

yes. that was my main worry too. my printer (a canon mx820) read them fine. ink levels were accurate and printouts were good normal quality. i haven't tried any photo paper yet.

Amazon asked me to respond but I found the machine too be cheap and I was told to throw it out, and I got my $ back.I bought a Canon MX922 and the print quality is far superior (and no constant paper jamming)!

Looked at the Canon Website and the MG5520 uses the same cartridge. Look at the Owners Manual to be sure, but I bet the all the 5500 series uses the same cartridges.

We are now on our third or fourth set of cartridges in our Canon MG6220 with no problems at all. I am leary of using this ink for photo printing if I want pictures that last for many years. Otherwise.....this ink is great!

I also bought the Canon MG5220. I am going to get the cartridge refill kits from either Amazon or Ebay. The cost is much less than the Canon brand cartridge.

According to Canons website they are. Hope this helps. http://shop.usa.canon.com/shop/en/catalog/mg5220-compatible-ink

I ended up with the MP620. It seems okay so far, but I really have not done much with it yet...just printed out a few regular pages. Haven't tried the scanner, copier , or photo printing yet. Keep on meaning to , but just haven't yet....I will try some of these things in the next few days and send another reply if that will help. One thing, it said "quick start" and it doesn't seem to be very quick, but there may be some setting I have to change for that and I've pretty much just been turning it on and clicking print....

I use them in my Canon MG 5320 and they work very well. Your printer would need to be used only for edible image and NEVER used with regular ink. You can buy empty cartridges to go in most printers. Also you may need a chip resetter if you have cartridges with the chips.

It's a dye ink. I can't speak for your printer. But I've used this in my Pixma ip4300 and now my new MG5420 and it works great. Just a couple of things to watch out for. You may have to adjust the ink slightly or change the type of paper used in "settings" depending on the paper used. I use staples brand gloss white brochure/flyer paper. And the best settings I found for my MG5420 were canon photo paper plus II. With my pixma I needed to adjust the actual ink in color settings. But I had to do that with the original canon ink anyway. As for what comes with the kit, make sure you get the little rubber stoppers for the ink tanks. The second time I ordered, I didn't get them with my order. This didn't matter to me because I still had the old ones. The little hand drill they give you is crap, use a regular drill. On the newer ink tanks, you'll have to watch where you drill the hole. You should put it as close as possible to the foam in the ink cartridge to avoid the hollow area they now put in the front. I'm actually looking into getting the constant inking system next, because I'm tired of getting ink all over my finger tips. And you will get ink on your fingers. So when you refill, do it over an old towel. I have 2 old T shirts that now look like pieces of abstract art. Just to let you know. I print a ton of stuff. I do all the print work for my band. So I print flyers, press kits, CD's and the liner notes. This ink has saved me a small fortune. The only downside is that, unless you get a chip resetter (which don't always work) you'll have to shut off your ink level sensor. So you won't know your ink levels. Good luck. One other thing. The ink I got (sometimes they send different ink brands, but they're all good) was photo color. So in settings you may have to make your image darker.
