Buy Cheap Remanufactured Ink Cartridges

At Inkntoneruk we are passionate about what we do. We know for a fact that, it is not what you do, but how you do it that matters. That is exactly what today’s post is about – “How do we remanufacture ink cartridges?” So how do we do it? It’s simple, buy the ink, pour it down the empty cartridge and your are ready to print. Unfortunately, it is not as easy as that. It takes skill, patience, appropriate equipment and a lot of testing before remanufactured cartridges can be placed on the consumers shelfs. In order to explain the ink cartridge recycling process in detail, I have teamed up with a few experts in the world of

remanufacturing ink cartridges, Chris and his assistant Josh (pictured below) to guide us through eight remanufacturing stages and to produce a compatible Canon PG-540 Black ink cartridge at the end of it.

It really is a smart move to go for compatible ink cartridges (recycled ink cartridges and remanufactured ink cartridges). To appreciate what it takes to produce a recycled ink cartridge, we figured it would be a good idea to share the remanufacturing process with you. This is a grey area for a lot of consumers and we hope you will find this information useful.

8 Steps to Remanufacture an Ink Cartridge

Step 1 – Weigh the Canon PG-540 ink cartridge

First things first. After we receive a used PG-540 cartridge from you, we have to weigh it first to see which cartridges still have some ink left in them. We separate the cartridges with ink in them and the ones without.

Step 2 – Spin the PG-540 cartridges

The ink cartridges which still had some ink in them have to go through a spinning process for the sponge inside the ink cartridge to dry out. It is slowly being prepared for that all important ink refill. After spinning the cartridges, it is necessary to weigh them again to ensure that all the ink has been removed from the inside of the cartridge.

Step 3 – Spray the Ink Cartridge

In the third stage of ink cartridge remanufacturing, Chris has sprayed the ink cartridges and the cartridge head in order to remove excess ink so the cartridge can communicate properly with the Canon printer. After spraying it, a clip is attached to the PG-540 ink cartridge for extra protection.

Step 4 – Fill the Cartridge with Ink

The fourth stage is where the major magic happens and the ink is filled into the clean and empty cartridges using the needles that insert into the cartridges (picture above). You have to be extremely careful not to fill too much or too little ink and follow precise cartridge capacity guidelines. Once the ink is in, it is time to weigh them again to ensure that all ink cartridges are the right weight.

Step 5 – Suck the Ink Cartridge

This is a vital part of the process, “sucking” the ink cartridge. All cartridges have to be “sucked” in order for them to start the ink flow, so when you insert it in your printer the ink is ready to be transferred to your printer.

Step 6 – Leave the cartridges for 7 days

Now, the ink cartridges have to be left for minimum of 7 days, for the ink to sink into the sponge inside the cartridge.

Step 7 – More Testing

After the ink cartridges have been on the shelf for a minimum of 7 days, Chris has to carry out a few printing tasks and print a couple of test pages to ensure the highest quality prints for your home or office.

Step 8 – Ready To Go

Now the ink cartridges are on the shelf, labeled and ready to be dispatched, as soon as the orders comes in.

Bear in mind that this is not the only way to remanufacture cartridges and some cartridges need to be boiled before they can be refilled and others such as compatible HP Photosmart ink cartridges, compatible Canon Pixma ink cartridges and compatible Epson Stylus ink cartridges are remanufactured in a factory in China. If you would like us to refill your ink cartridges, simply select your printer model using our quick finder, then if the refill option is available for your cartridge, click on the refill option. After paying for your refill, you will be given a free post address to send your ink cartridge to us, which we will refill and send it back to you shortly.

Wide Format Printing from Mars

Printing from where? The title doesn’t make sense surely! Oh yes – it does my friends. While we go about our day to day business, NASA is determined to investigate the Martian climate, geology, role of water and planetary habitability. Kris Capraro a computer systems engineer for the Image Processing Laboratory at the National Aeronautics has been working for 27 years to bring space images into spotlight and wide format printing is helping him to achieve that.

Introducing the Curiosity Rover

Curiosity rover (pictured below) is about the size of an average car. It was launched aboard MSL spacecraft from Cape Canaveral Air force station on 26 of November 2011 and it took 8 months to travel 350,000,000 miles (563,000,000 km) before it successfully landed on Aeolis Palus in Gale Crater on Mars.

Capraro who took some pictures of the Curiosity Rover before it was launched said “When I took those pictures, I was astounded at how complicated the sky crane actually was,” he stated “Of course, the rover is also extremely complicated, but the lander just had bundles and bundles of wire harness. It was just unbelievable piece of machinery, but it worked.”

 

Wide Format Prints

Wide format imaging assisted the landing of Curiosity at Gale Crater as it is not easy to visualise something that is larger, than a computer screen. Capraro puts together left-to-right view large prints to produce big panoramas making it easier for people to visualise it. He uses HP DesignJet Z6100 to do his wide format prints from Mars.

Apart from HP, Epson and Canon also manufacture high quality large format printers. In January 2012 Canon Image PROGRAF 8300s has won the BERTL’s ‘Best’ 44inch Graphics Arts Large Format Printer award. While Canon iPF8300 and Canon Glacier were used to print an exhibition of Olympic gold medallists.

Wide format printers are usually used in the industry to print banners, posters and general signage, but the type of wide format printing Capraro is producing with HP DesignJet Z6100 has to be admired and should be appreciated by all of us.

At Ink’n'TonerUK we provide a large range of wide format ink cartridges and take care of all your printing needs. So, if you are looking for ink or toner cartridges look no further, because at Ink’nTonerUK we provide highest quality products for the lowest prices.

How to Reduce the Cost of Printing?

Posted on by
Reply

In these difficult economic times we as consumers are on the lookout for the best deals on everything we purchase. As it happened to be, ink cartridges and toner cartridges are on the expensive side. If you are reading this you are most likely keen on finding the right printing solution for your business or home. This article aims to give you tips on different ways to reduce your printer ownership cost without sacrificing the end results.

TIP Number 1 – Choose Your Printer Carefully

My first tip is be very vigilant when you purchase your printer. When you are in the shop trying to find the right printer, at first glance it might seem like a good idea to go for the cheapest one or best looking one. Unfortunately, both of these factors have got nothing to do with how much you will actually spend once you buy the printer. If you bought the printer for around £50 you will soon realise that your printing costs are more expensive than your printer and that they are not economical at all. Of course a lot of it depends on the amount of prints you print per week/month. Consumers who print couple copies a week here and there might not bother about the efficiency of the printer. However, if you love to print a lot or you are looking for the most sensible printing solution for your office, then I strongly recommend to go for the printers that cost £150 and above. After all you will have the printer for at least 5 years and the investment will save you money on printing cost in the long run.

TIP Number 2 – Cost Per Page is the Key

People are always asking us, “what is the best printer to buy?” “what printer should I buy?” “which printer will save me money?”

Well, it all depends on your needs. A lot of advice online suggests that in order to save on printing cost you have to print in black and white. As It happened to be, compatible black cartridges produce great quality prints, in most cases matching the originals. Other tips suggest that you print in draft mode. If you are going to print in draft mode, then what is the point of purchasing originals? When purchase premium compatible ink cartridges you will save bundles of money by decreasing your cost per page because compatible cartridges have way more ink in them. Cost per page has a lot to do with your printing expenditures, so be sure to find out the exact cost per page of the printer before your buy it, to avoid any nasty surprises in the future.

TIP Number 3 – Buy ink and toner in bulk

Another great way to save is by buying ink/toner cartridges in bulk. The cartridges usually come with couple years expiry date, so there is no reason for you not to buy more cartridges at once. At Inkntoneruk our multi packs and value packs have 5% discount which is a nice way to get all your printer consumables while spending less.

TIP Number 4 – Go for the Compatible Cartridges

Last but by far not least, tip number 4 is “compatible ink and toner cartridges”. I have read an article where the author was saying that original cartridges will save you money. How can you save money by paying more for the printer cartridges and receiving less ink in return? Compatibles could potentially save you a fortune (Read more on Colossal savings on HP toners). If you are stuck with that cheap printer and wondering how to spend less on printing cost –  you have two choices. One is to throw the cheap printer away or recycle it and buy a new one, that is better economically. If you do your research properly chances are you’ll save for many years to come. Another option is to go for compatible cartridges. The latter receives the highest recommendations because it is guaranteed to save you cash instantly and you don’t have to throw your printer away.  It’s also a common misconception that re-manufactured ink cartridges are not to be used, because they are poor quality and do not work. The fact of the matter is that, it is simply not true and whoever is telling you this, they are ether lying or have no idea what they are talking about. It is easy to babble nonsense after you had one bad experience with compatible ink cartridges but unlike genuine ink cartridges, compatibles are manufactured by many different OEM’s, not to mention amateurs who are pumping ink to the cartridge in their own homes. Compatible ink and toner cartridges at Inkntoneruk print as good as the originals but cost much less. Due to rigorous testing that takes place before cartridges are dispatched you can buy supreme quality ink and toner compatibles with total confidence.

HP technology used for Medical Purposes

Posted on by

The biggest corporation in the printing industry HP is not snoozing and is expanding into other industries as well. The latest move by HP is to help the production of medication. Scientists will be able to take advantage of HP device that has been developed for 10 years to create medication. This is slightly different area than HP toner cartridges for HP printers, but the technology used will be very similar.

The device was developed using HP Officejet Pro X’s printhead, which accommodates over 42,000 nozzles. The main reason why the device is necessary is due to repetition and human error involved in medication production. It works by dropping droplets of chemicals into tiny sliding containers saving hours and hours of the painful process.

Joe Dody, Business manager of speciality Printing Systems for HP said:

“We imagined the application and we worked with customers to convince ourselves and the industry that we were creating value in doing it, so we gained support from HP to make a business out of it.”

“A researcher applies between 200,000 to a million drops of the compound to test against the disease target and they hope that 10,000 are actually hits. Then they can determine what’s common between molecules and what’s the dose at which these drug molecules are causing a positive interaction with disease.”

The HP device could potentially save up to 95% of work, billions of dollars and years of the medication development processes. Printers are designed to spit out ink out of the printhead and HP’s Direct Digital Dispenser (D300) will do exactly that. Except instead of the ink, the D300 will be dropping desired substance drops, allowing the scientists to test many different substance variations saving time and increasing the chances of discovering even greater medication.

This is a perfect example of technology helping us to achieve more. It is truly inspiring and at the same time surprising to see, that printer technology is helping and changing our lives for the better in so many different ways.

The machine took years to develop but it seems that it was worth it in the end.

Dody stated: “If you didn’t find a solution you would have to make a hard business decision or scrap the project. The stakes were high”

“The scale of our core printing business allows us to make a refined tool at a cost that is cheap. This is the first time the world has a reliable way to dispense at the picoliter level”

What Mr Dody is basically saying is that they saw the need and the gap in the industry for this type of machine and they did everything in their power to create such device that would be profitable and valuable to the medicine and printing industries alike.

The HP inkjet Officejet devices are magnificent as it is and to know that they will be contributing to latest developments in medicine is simply brilliant. The HP inkjet printers together with Epson Workforce Pro printers have been hailed as laserjet killers.(Read more on HP Officejet inkjet to challenge laserjet printers).

Lexmark Sold Inkjet Patents

International corporation Lexmark has announced their exit of the inkjet industry long ago. Simply put, they just could not handle the competition from HP ink cartridges, Canon ink cartridges and Epson ink cartridges .

Lexmark are about to sell 1,500 inkjet patents which will put the final nail in the coffin in terms of Lexmarks Inkjet industry. Lexmark are cashing in instead of attempting to compete and they will sell the patents to a Japanese company called Funai Electric Company Ltd for $100 million dollars (about 78 million euros). The deal is scheduled to be completed by the first half of 2013.

Funai from Osaka in Japan has been a partner of Lexmark for over 15 years and Lexmark has indicated that the two businesses have strong relationship between each other due to so much time working together.

Funai will receive inkjet research, shares and Lexmark International, which is based in Philippines.

President and CEO of Funai, Tomonori Hayashi stated:

“This transaction provides us with a crucial and tremendous opportunity to enhance our office solution business. Funai and Lexmark have developed a great partnership and we are glad to take over Lexmarks inkjet related technology and assets. The acquisition of the latest inkjet technology enables Funai to start and grow our own business. Funai will benefit from a strong inkjet business”

It is difficult to see why Lexmark are selling the inkjet technology and the patents. Especially with inkjet printers catching up rapidly with laser printers and Epson even proved, that some of their inkjet printer are better than laserjets. However, Lexmark made a decision and only time will show whether it was the right one or the wrong one.

Chairman of Lexmark and CEO, Paul Rooke stated:

” As we continue our transition to becoming a leading end to end solutions provider, this transaction essentially completes our exit from the ownership of inkjet related assets, although we will continue to support our existing customer base with the sale of inject supplies. Funai has been a trusted partner of Lexmark’s since 1997 and I am fully confident in Funai’s ability to deliver high quality inkjet supplies for Lexmark. ”

The two companies have been in partnership for so long and while Lexmark will focus their attention on Lexmark printers and toner cartridges for Lexmark printers, it is nice to see that Lexmark will still be taking care of their existing customers by supplying ink cartridges for Lexmark inkjet printers.

As we all well know mobile apps and mobile website users have been increasing ever since smartphones have been released. This increased usage of mobile smartphones has caused the inevitable change the way corporations such as HP and Samsung approach smartphone industry.

Samsung who are competing with Apple, has joined together with the giant in the printing industry HP, in an attempt to conquer the smartphone printing apps. They will face some stiff competition from other printing apps such as PrintCentral and PrintnShare which have been already in the business for a while, mostly featured on Apple iPhone devices. However, such great combination as Samsung and HP, should bring unavoidable attention and success depending on the apps performance and customer satisfaction.

Obviously, the smartphones are not as smart just yet and cannot offer all in one printing solution and that is where the HP printers come in. Once you have taken a picture and decided you want to print it, all you have to do is click the “print” button and the photo or document will be printed by the HP printer wirelessly on a local network or through HP wireless direct. The app will come as standard and will be featured in the new Samsung Galaxy S4. If you are an owner of Samsung S3 do not get disappointed, as you will be able to get hold of the app by upgrading the phone’s software.

The app will work on 200 different inkjet and laser printer models. The best part of it is that it will include photo gallery, browser and e-mail, and even MS Office, so you can print anything you wish, from almost anywhere you desire with just a few clicks. It is an easy and convenient new way to handle your printing jobs. Considering that this new app will be embedded in the Samsung phones and you will not have to worry about installing drivers or setting it up, this might well be, the next best printing app.

Senior Vice President of HP’s Inkjet and Printing Solutions Stephen Nigro has commented:

“Customers continue to look for ways to print from their smartphones and tablets. This partnership with Samsung is the latest example of how HP is making it easy to print what you want from wherever you want.”

Cheap Hp Toner and Samsung Toner

While I would find it difficult to choose which smartphone is currently the best because new smartphones are released every few months. I certainly have no doubt who is currently the best at providing cheapest Samsung toner cartridge, cheapest Hp ink, cheap HP toner cartridges and even cheaper compatible HP toner cartridges, and compatible Samsung toner Cartridges. For outstanding customer service and low prices for your Hp and Samsung inks and toners come to Inkntoner.

New Wide Format Epson Printers

Introduction

Seiko Epson corporation known to most of us as Epson, is an absolute monster in the printing industry. Originally started in 1943 as watch making company Epson evolved as time went by into a corporation that manufactures printers, cartridges, projectors, televisions and even robots etcetera (the list is endless). Recently, the Japanese company have decided to extend their market even further by attacking the wide format printing industry for science and engineering fields. Their aim is to get at least 20 percent of the wide format printing market in the next few years.

SureColor SC-T7000, SC-T5000 and SC-T3000 Printers

Allow me to introduce the SureColor SC-T7000 (pictured below), SC-T5000 and SC-T3000 printers, that has been specifically designed to meet the needs of architects. The piano looking-like printing devices will print on coated and non-coated material printing up to 1118 mm, 914 mm and 640 mm wide prints in sharp as a “dagger” quality.

Epson-sct7000

Epson-sct7000

Epson’s Business account manager all the way from South Africa Vernon Mellors has commented by saying “Since the 90′s the focus point has been almost exclusively on the photographic, fine art and commercial printing. The company has never built a product that’s been geared specifically for engineering, architecture and construction space, as the timing wasn’t right”

Mellors was being honest about Epson’s approach to the market and continued to say “Three years ago, we took a look at this specialised sector again and realised that we had the technology to build on the feedback we received in our research and create a printing solution specifically tailored to the needs of these professionals”

This is a great move by Epson and every company or corporation should follow their example by maximising their resources and taking maximum advantage of the available research in order to keep expanding.

Epson SureColor SC-T7000 Printer Review

It is quite obvious that the SC-T7000 will hold a substantially high price tag and the price of £3,540 is not surprising at all. Considering the size, quality and purpose of the printer this is actually a low price as there are many normal laserjets that cost a thousand or two.

Now that we have the price out of the way, we can concentrate on the functionality and quality. The SC-T7000 is easy to set up and to navigate as you would expect from any Epson device. The printer’s operations are carried out from the front, allowing the user to be in control at all times. With the maximum size of 44 inch prints you could easily print a couple of prints and have your house redecorated with your favourite wallpapers. That’s how cool this printer actually is. The unique Epson Micro Piezo will ensure high graphics of 2880 x 1440 dpi and will allow smooth printings for architectural designs, posters and presentations.

Ink’n'TonerUK does not have cartridges for the wide format printer, but we have the widest range of Epson toner cartridges available for you to order today with our easy to use website.

Wireless Printer Sales Increase

Wireless AIO’s Sales Increase
It has been reported by CONTEXT, that in 2012 there was an increase in sales by
 substantial 9 percent for wireless all-in-one printers. The strange fact is that sales increased only in Western European countries including United Kingdom, Netherlands, Spain, Italy,

 

France and Germany. However, the overall sales of wireless all-in-ones has declined by 14 percent. Looking at these statistics it is safe to say that Western Europeans prefer the idea of less clutter in the office and the ability to move the printer easily whenever necessary. Meanwhile, the rest of the world is satisfied with the old-school printing devices and are not bothered. While the advantages of owning a wireless printing device are obvious, when reading through some printer reviews, I discovered that quite a few people have been struggling to connect their wireless printers to their computers.

Market Shares – HP Still on Top

Hewlett Packard aka HP printing industry giant has seen 10 percent decline for inkjet printers in the market share and fell below the 50 percent mark, however HP remains by far the main leader. Epson and Canon have 25 and 10 percent market shares respectively and have closed the gap slightly between the HP.

Increase in Sales by Country

  1.     Netherlands 36.8%
  2.     Italy 19.2%
  3.     France 11.1%
  4.     Germany 9.2%
  5.     Spain 2.1%
  6.     United Kingdom 1.6%

As you can see the Dutch really enjoy the wireless printers, as they stand first in the table of sales increased for wireless AIOs. While the Italians came second with almost twice less sales than the Netherlands. France and Germany have seen a solid increase too, both in and around the 10% mark while Spain and United Kingdom still enjoying the old-school printers as minor sales increase has been recorded with 2.1% and 1.6% respectively.

This is what Senior Research Analyst Matthew Fuller of CONTEXT had to say about it.

“The report highlights demand of wireless AIOs across homes and small offices due to the flexibility of where printers can be placed while also allowing multiple devices to connect without the need for unruly cables”

For outstanding customer service, top quality products at affordable prices, always remember to check Ink’n'TonerUK out when it’s time to reload ink cartridges for your wireless printer.
