The Canon inks have done quite well for me in that they don't seem to clog up. If I am not printing anything, I try to run at least one test print per week. That is what I would worry aboput when using a non-OEM ink on the Pixma.
My HP was pretty good about clogging but, since I used that as my primary printer, I ran a lot of prints and documents through it.
I don't run any black and white print documents through my Pixma 9000 Mkii because I now do my document printing on a Brother Laser Printer. By the way, I use a generic toner on that printer and it works as well as the OEM toner but, has a larger print capacity...
