Toner Cartridges
A toner cartridge is used in laser printers or photocopier and contains electrically charged ink that is fused to the paper during the printing process. Toner is a form of dry ink used to print images that covers a page more efficiently than liquid ink. It is also less expensive than liquid ink.
Toner cartridges were invented in 1938 for a process of printing called electro photography. In 1978, a fine-tuned laser printer using a toner cartridge was introduced, thanks to advances in technology, but the price was very high. The challenge of making it more affordable was solved in 1984 when the LaserJet printer with a replaceable toner cartridge hit the market.
Most toner cartridges can be easily recycled, refilled or remanufactured. Most popular machine brands of toner cartridge are HP, Panasonic, Canon, Epson, Lexmark, Xerox, Sharp and Konica Minolta.
Different toner-based hardware includes laser printers, laser copiers, inkjet cartridges, color cartridges,...

Save money on printer ink
If you are near your printer, look at it for a moment and think about the last time you had to replace the ink cartridge. Was it a hassle? Was it expensive? Was it time-consuming? Was it confusing? Probably the answer was yes to all four questions!
People often consider printer ink as a curse rather than a useful product since it never seems to be full when you have a big print job, and it can be very expensive to replace. After all, everybody knows that the printer manufacturers take a loss on their printers and making huge profits on their printer ink! There are alternatives however, instead of having to go out and buy a replacement cartridge each and every time. Here are some options for you.
You can choose to fill the printer ink yourself, which can be messy, but is probably the most cost effective method. Kits are available in most department stores and office supply stores.
All you do is remove the cartridge and use a syringe to inject ink into...

Selecting an Ink Jet printer?With Low Operating Cost
Printer technology has made tremendous advances in the past five years. Speeds are up and print quality is great. Meanwhile, printer costs have declined.What has not improved is the cost of ink. Printer manufacturers expected to make their profit on replacement cartridges, and they do. But in charging high prices they created another industry that they have to compete with.Now there are generic or compatible replacements; you can buy refilled cartridges and refill kits so you can refill them yourself.
Worst of all there are counterfeits. And there's a big market for all of them due to the sky-high price of OEM cartridges.The manufacturers are full of tricks. Some of them use tiny cartridges that don't hold much ink. Most of the standard cartridges are half full of ink. They sell high capacity cartridges at premium prices that are full of ink.
They run promotions on printers that have sample cartridges that barely have enough ink to try out the new printer.These are all...

Printer Ink ? Money Saving Tips
Printer Ink ? Money Saving Tips
The home printer is a wonderful thing. In a very short space of time we have gone from there being no home printers at all, to most homes having a printer capable of high quality documents, pictures and photographs.
The printing capabilities we now have at home are pretty amazing when you stop and think about it. Even more amazing than this though are the extremely low prices that you can buy a brand new printer at these days. There is however a catch (Isn't there always!).
Printer manufacturers use a very clever marketing model that can be seen in with many other products such as razors and cell phones. They will actually sell you the printer at a loss just so that they can then sell you ink cartridges at over inflated prices. That's why if you buy the manufacturers own ink cartridges you will probably be spending $20-30 for a replacement. They make a huge amount of profit on these ink cartridge replacements,...
Remanufactured Toner Cartridges vs. OEM (original manufacturer) Cartridges
I have worked in the toner industry for over six years, and in that time have seen a good deal of change within the industry.
The remanufacturing industry began as a drill and fill operation.
Components were not changed; the cartridge was cleaned and refilled with toner.
This led to poor print quality, defects, and cartridges that leaked toner into machines.
Some companies continue with these practices today, but most have made a legitimate effort at selling a quality product.
Quality remanufactured toner cartridges are now available.
Remanufactured toner cartridges can actually exceed OEM quality and yield.
Extensive testing and R&D have enabled this industry to produce cartridges that will not only save the customer money, but also provide a better product.
As the customer, what should you ask potential vendors about their remanufactured cartridges?1. What yield and density did the cartridges achieve in testing?The...
