Beware of Low Cost Printers
In order to keep printer ink prices low the first thing you need to do is pick the right printer. Nowadays you can find printers for low two digit prices but what are some things you need to look out for? Here are a few:
Don’t end up spending more when you think you’re getting a deal. Stop before buying and do your homework.
- As a general rule, the lower the cost of the printer, the higher the cost of print cartridges.
- When examining a printer's cost per page, make sure the manufacturer's estimating process follows ISO standards.
- The cost of each print is rated based on the yield or number of printable pages for a given ink cartridge.
- Many factors affect the yield of the cartridge, including the type of paper used and the print quality selected.
- Determine the total cost of ownership by figuring out how much use you’ll give the printer.
- For limited use, a low cost printer with higher cost ink cartridges might be the best economical choice.
- Find out if there are remanufactured ink cartridges for that printer and if they are also ISO certified along with the page yield.
Don’t end up spending more when you think you’re getting a deal. Stop before buying and do your homework.
