Which refill ink for PG-560 and CL-561?

[Herb]

I want to buy some ink for my Canon PG560 and CL561 cartridges.
I'm in the EU, for what it's worth.

Octopus-office looks legit, but they're the most expensive. Then there's Druckerpatronentankstellen and Printerink24 and others. Amazon has some cheaper offers, but I'm not sure about the quality there.

How do I know if an ink is safe to use and won't damage the cartridge?
Is there a public list of (Canon) cartridges that use the exact same ink?

The better the quality of the 3rd party ink is the way to go, but be aware some if not all compatible inks can cause issues with your print head later..

If you don’t print that often then stick using OEM ink, yes you’ll pay for the quality but it will be worth it in the end for both you, print longevity and your printer..

You can make just as much savings by using cheaper inkjet papers..
