Doing Your Homework BEFORE Buying Ink or Toner for Your Printer
Replacing ink or toner is one of the highest ongoing costs of having a printer, and those costs can get pretty high if you print a lot. Fortunately, the introduction of lower cost alternatives to buying the OEM’s brand has helped to defray the costs. When shopping around for ink or toner, there are a couple of questions to ask in regards to the cartridges the company sells: How thoroughly does the company inspect the cartridges before refilling?

Understand that there is a difference between remanufactured ink or toner cartridges and refilled cartridges. With remanufactured ink or toner cartridges a good reputable company will check each cartridge in detail, making sure everything is fine with the existing cartridge, no cracks, no worn out parts, no broken [...]
