5 Ideas That Will Make You Think About Printing

By Andrew Scudder


It can be a real struggle to continue to enjoy your printer when you first realize that it will cost you an extraordinary amount of money to replace your used ink cartridges. Of course, all printer companies will be happy to sell you a very inexpensive printer unit; however, this is because they are able to charge prices for ink cartridges that are much higher than the cost to manufacture.

One way to save money on your printer costs is to simply reduce how often you are printing documents, though this can be an unreasonable thing to ask when your business runs on printing things. Many people have wondered whether it is possible to refill one's own cartridges. Printer manufacturers are going to tell you their side of the story -- that refilling your own cartridges can lead to a lot of damage -- but their interests are understandably not aligned with yours. When you want a real answer check the information in this post.

Many people have been pleased to discover that there is every possibility of being able to refill your own cartridges. The best way to do so is to use a refill kit that is sold by any number of independent companies. By using these kits -- which come with replacement ink, syringes to be used for injecting the new ink into the old cartridges, and a complete set of instructions -- you'll be saving a lot of money in the end. You should be ready to get dirty, since the refilling process involves making a mess in nearly every case.

When you are ready to start refilling your ink cartridges, there are two other things you should consider purchasing: a mat or some other way of covering your flooring, and a good pair of latex gloves.

The first step you will have to do is find the label that is on most cartridges that will indicate a hole can be found underneath it. It is through this hole that you will be injecting the ink. The best way of injecting the ink is to use the syringe that comes with your ink cartridge refill kit. Make sure to push the syringe into the cartridge as much as you can, since many of the ink cartridges on the market will have a sponge as the entrance to the cartridge that keeps the ink in.

You can rest assured that your ink cartridge refill kit will be effective for any brand of major inkjet printer you may own.
