Are they genuine Canon ink cartridges and not third-party refills?

"Dodimay" wrote in message news I have a Cannon Pixma ip1700 printer. I just changed the ink(why do you have
to push with all your might to insert the cartridges?) Anyway, got both of
hem in and the light on top tells me they're in there right. WhenI check in
the printer properties, it still tells me both cartridges are almostempty. I
just bought these. Can someone tell me what else I might not be doing? I
would really apreciate some feedback. Thanks in advance.
