(plus 1) to Save on Printer Ink and Toner Cartridges
by: Larry Andrew
Are you getting tired of the high cost of printing?
You’re not alone. Many consumers are up in arms. For example, they
believe paying $22 per ounce for printer ink and $150 to $300 (or more)
for a toner cartridge is way too much.

Most of the major printer manufacturers have adopted
the same marketing model as the razor blade, TiVo and cell phone
industry. Simply stated, they sell you the printer for cost or less in
order to sell you printer ink and toner cartridges at huge markups. In
many instances, they charge seven to ten times what it costs to
manufacture these products.
In addition, these major companies spend thousands of
dollars trying to convince you to purchase only their products. They
strongly criticize printer ink and toner cartridges offered by third
party companies. However, did you know that many of these major
companies are now selling their own recycled cartridges… and
you’re still paying full retail price for them! As someone once said, to
get a real education, read the fine print on the label.
With the advent of online marketing, consumer have
more choices than ever. There are a large number of reputable companies
that sell printer ink and toner cartridges at significant savings. It is
very common to save 50-85% when purchasing your printer supplies. In
addition to substantial savings, you'll get a money back guarantee and
your order is normally shipped the same day. |

Ok, here’s ten ways (plus 1) to save on printer ink
and toner cartridges:
1. Purchase a compatible inkjet cartridge. These are
cartridges made from new parts and manufactured to meet or exceed the
OEM specifications for you exact printer.
2. Purchase a remanufactured inkjet cartridge. Third
party companies collect empty printer ink cartridges. They refill them
with ink and test them vigorously to make sure you get exactly the
quality and quantity you expect from your inkjet cartridge.
3. Purchase an ink refill kit. You’ll get step-by-step
instructions, the tools and printer ink you need to refill your ink
cartridge in just a few minutes. On the average, you can refill an
inkjet cartridge ten times.

4. Your inkjet cartridge will eventually wear out.
Instead of purchasing a brand name cartridge, purchase a compatible or
remanufactured cartridge. Then, when compatible cartridge is empty,
refill it with printer ink just as you did your original.
5. When you’re printing, always use draft mode until
you’re ready for your final print.
6. Whenever possible, select black and white print. If
you’re final product is to be in color, your draft can be done in black
and white until you’ve double-checked everything. Then, print your final
copies in color.
7. Purchase a compatible toner cartridge. Third party
companies make these toner cartridges from brand new parts. They are
manufactured to be equal to or better than your original toner
cartridge.
8. Purchase a remanufactured cartridge. Many companies
collect empty toner cartridges. They empty any toner waste and then
refill the cartridge. They quality check the drum and other parts of the
cartridge to insure maximum performance for the consumer.
9. Purchase a toner refill kit. These kits include the
tools and instructions necessary to refill your own toner cartridge. On
the average, you can refill a toner cartridge about three times.
10. When you toner cartridge is not producing the
quality of print you expect, check to see if you can replace the drum,
instead of the entire cartridge. This will keep money in your pocket.
11. Purchase multiple ink and toner cartridges if you
can. You will save substantially over the already discounted cost, plus
you will probably get Free shipping.
By ordering your printer ink, toner or ink cartridge
online, you’ll experience the best service, the best warranty, and the
best products available, for all your printing needs.
