PIXMA MG2522 Ink running out too fast

[subcine23]

I have a MG2522 printer that runs out of ink way before its stated page count. I'm primarily printing black and white documents that are a majority of text. It seems to be an issue with this printer. Is there any settings or work arounds to have it work correctly. 

Thanks!

I just bought this printer in April. I have not printed more than 20 pages and it indicates the ink is low. The ink costs more than the printer. Canon doing anything about it?

I did in fact buy a new black cartridge at Walmart. I bought it one month after I bought the printer; thinking the original cartridge had dried up from being on the shelf.

The UPC for this cartridge is: 0 13803 28226 9

This printer is junk if you want to admit it.

Canon needs to replace these printers.

I just logged out of Canon support and now the ink lights are flashing 4 times, then stop, then flash again.

WHY SHOULD I HAVE TO FIX A BRAND NEW PRINTER????????
