4 Practical Tips: Printing

By Eric Solito


Saving money is in everyone's best interest, and while it may seem like buying an inkjet printer is less costly than buying a laser printer, in the long run it will cost more to replace ink cartridges than it will to replace toner cartridges that are used in laser printers. While ink cartridges are cheaper, you must replace them much more often than you have to replace toner cartridges, making the more costly in the long run. it is possible that you can reduce the amount of money you have to spend on printing by making some good decisions and using some strategies when looking around at printers and toner cartridges.

One way to save a little bit of money is buying toner cartridges in bulk, because usually you can save more money this way than when you buy all of them separately. You can find these pretty easily online or in your local office supplies store, and they are generally advertised because they can save you so much money.

Recycling toner cartridges allows you to reuse your cartridge, just with new toner in it for a much more affordable price. You will simply take your old cartridge to your local retailer, and they can refill it for you which will save you the money of purchasing a brand new toner cartridge. You can save money and help the environment by using this method. Actually, it is possible that when your toner is refilled it will actually last longer than when it comes straight from the manufacturer. Over the past decade recycling has become very popular, and companies are seeing the advantages that it can provide for them and it is now an inherent part of the business world.

Also, environmentalists consider the recycling of toner cartridges to be much more environmentally friendly than purchasing completely brand new products. By recycling, people can make the environment a safer place. When you re-use a toner cartridge, you don't use the chemicals that could hurt the environment.

While ink cartridges are known to release contaminated material into the environment when they are put in a landfill, toner cartridges are much more environmentally friendly and do not release those nasty chemicals into the environment. Because the companies realize that this is very important, they are building cartridges so that they can get refilled many times before they must be disposed of. As long as you spend the time looking for the best prices before buying a product, you will save some of your hard earned money.
