How can I cut the cost of inkjet printing?

Yes you can. Set the level of quality that you want to print at. The higher the quality you choose the more ink will be used. On your bottom task bar on your computer screen you should see a tiny picture (icon) of your printer. Click on that to open and you will then see the Properties Box. You can open the different pages of the Properties box by clicking on the individual tabs. Depending on your printer on the Main Page you will see something called quality options: Choose what suits you best, Draft – Text – Text & Image – Photo – Best Photo.  Draft uses the least ink.Also when you go to print your document, an info box will appear where you can decide how many copies you want to print, nearby should be the PROPERTIES button, that will open the Properties box as described above.

 

Can I use alternative cheaper or refilled cartridges in my printer?

Some printers will accept these and some will not. A message may appear to ask do you know that you are not using the manufacturers brand, usually answering ok will clear this message. Avoid mixing Original Branded Cartridges with the Alternative Brand, so either use a full set of OEM cartridges, or a full set of Alternatives. Where possible we try to have both in stock to help save customers money. Our alternatives are fully guaranteed for quality and output.

 

Which printer to choose, Laser or Inkjet?

LASER printers are faster, cheaper to run, and quieter so it may be an idea to get an inexpensive black laser printer, use that for the long runs, and also keep your inkjet printer for short runs and high quality output. When you print just send to the machine you want. As a rule of thumb printing with Mono laser is 20% of the cost per page compared to colour inkjet printing!
