      Excellent company to use.

      Next day delivery. Seamless ordering process. Cartridges fit and work perfectly. Cheapest online prices.
      Customer service is also 100%

      Would definitely recommend ????????

      By John Cassidy on

      I was very impressed by the way in which the order was carried out. I was told when it would be despatched and delivered, and bang on time it was delivered. I had no problem installing the cartridges, and the quality of printing was excellent on first print. I will definitely be using cartridgesave.co.uk again, and hopefully I will be able to send in the empty cartridges I have taken out of my printer for recycling by you. I will definitely recommend you to any of my friends who need replacement print cartridges.

    • 3-year warranty
      3-year warranty on our own-brand cartridges
      We are proud of our own-brand cartridges, so we’ve made trying them a no-brainer. If within three years of purchase you have any problem whatsoever, we’ll happily offer either a replacement or a refund.
      Returning items is easy—it takes just a few minutes. But our return rate is very low, so you’ll be unlikely to need it.
      We are confident that no other own-brand cartridges are better than ours. They produce vibrant prints with accurate colour densities and dark blacks—and their page yields are as good as the genuines, if not better. Give them a try, and see why our customers love them.
      Our own-brand cartridges are incredibly reliable for three reasons:
      1. We are the UK’s biggest seller of own-brand cartridges, and we have invested a lot in optimising them.
      2. We are dedicated to quality. Every own-brand cartridge is performance-tested before it leaves the factory.
      3. We constantly monitor customer feedback, and quickly resolve any issues.
    • Printer protection guarantee
      Our cartridges won't damage your printer—guaranteed
      Some people worry that own-brand cartridges might damage their printers. We know from experience that ours don’t.
      To reassure you, we guarantee that we’ll repair or replace your printer—for free—in the unlikely event that it gets damaged by an own-brand cartridge. This is regardless of how old your printer is. We can afford to offer this because problems are almost unheard of.
      Some people whose printers are less than a year old worry that an own-brand cartridge might invalidate the manufacturer’s warranty. This isn’t true. By law, the manufacturers aren’t allowed to invalidate your warranty if you use own-brand cartridges. If something does go wrong, and our own-brand cartridges are to blame, we’ll take over the manufacturer’s warranty, offer you phone support and repair or replace your printer if needed.

      In summary, there’s zero risk in using our own-brand cartridges.

Canon Pixma TS5100 Printer Review

Expert review of the Canon Pixma TS5100 printer

Our Verdict:

The Canon Pixma TS5100 is a network printer with copying and scanning capabilities. It accepts a range of different media, including T-shirt transfers, greetings cards, plain paper and envelopes. This unit is especially useful for printing photographs, either directly from a smartphone or via a computer. Using the Easy-PhotoPrint + option, users can also create or edit their photographs online, then send them to the printer directly. The compact size of this unit makes it a good choice for small offices or homes where images and documents are regularly required but space is limited.

Design

This printer weighs 14.3 lb and measures 16.8 x 12.5 x 5.8 inches, this means it has a minimal footprint and can be easily stored on a shelf or desk. For fast connectivity, the Canon Pixma TS5100 is complete with a high-speed USB 1 port, as well as a wireless LAN port. It is compatible with both Mac and Windows operating systems, as well as mobile software from Android and iOS devices. The paper output tray can manage a total of 50 sheets, while the input tray will take 100 sheets.

Advantages

This printer has been designed to work seamlessly with a range of printing software so that users can link up with Google Cloud Print, AirPrint or Canon Print to created images. The printer has a resolution of up to 4800 x 1200 dpi, so photographs are rendered in great quality. When double-sided copies are required, there is an auto-duplexing feature to reduce the time staff needs to be present. In terms of the maximum paper size accepted, it can produce prints of up to 8 inches.

Disadvantages

The Canon Pixma TS5100 copier function is slightly complicated to use. It involves pulling out a cassette and loading it with the originals rather than simply placing them on a scanner.
