Have you used G&G CLI-8 cartridges? Please give me your recommendations.
Thanks you.

G&G compatibles are generally well-accepted. However, G&G does change ink
suppliers with some regularity so you don't always get the same ink. This is
also true of virtually any compatible. Certainly no reason not to give them
a try. I refill, and so I like to use ProColor tanks because they are
easily filled.

You said it.  I have been saying this for a long time.  You never know
what you are getting and the only way you can have any consistency
between photos is to use OEM ink.

Yes there is. If You want to have consistent photos and be able
to rely on all of the other characteristics of the ink you need the
consistency of OEM ink.  If all you care about it spending less money
then you can risk your printer by using generic ink but one needs to
make an informed decision.

I have no knowledge of this supplier or their inks and therefore will not
comment. However to say that "virtually any compatible" supplier changes their
inks with some regularity is certainly not correct.</pre>

Since they will not tell you who their supplier is at any given time
you will never know.

You do not know this unless you are one of those relabelers.

Any non OEM ink is generic.
