It came in within 3 days and am happy with the quality of the ink and the amount of time it lasts. It is cheaper here than in the stores, but they did go up about $5.00 since I ordered it the last time. If it keep going higher, I might as well buy it at my local store.

Lexmark #50 OEM: While the ink itself is quite good--dries fast and stands out--The cartridge stops working half-way through after only occasional use. Even After the performing a "Cleaning" process, it still will not print a regular document. I know it still has plenty of ink because it prints wide black bands during the cleaning process; however, once you start printing a document, it fades out after the 1st couple of lines. My guess is that once opened, the ink dries quickly inside the cartridge! I also tried several re-manufactured/compatible cartridges, but the ink is usually gray instead of black, and it smudges quickly if you touch it with a wet hand. Not to mention that the nozzles are often clogged on those refurbished cartridges right out of the box and no matter how many "cleanings" you perform. Conclusion: if you have a Lexmark Printer, you're stuck & better-off with an OEM Lexmark Cartridge. Consider buying a different-brand printer in the future after proper research.

cartridges work just as well, but are cheaper than when you buy them in the store!
