Tips on saving money with your printer cartridges
Proof read before you print
To prevent wasted pages which you don’t or can’t use perform a spelling and grammar check before you print off anything to avoid wasting ink or toner from your cartridge. This way you won’t waste your resources or time going back to correct mistakes which could have been rectified in the first instance. You would be surprised with the amount of cumulative printing waste which results from not initially checking your work.
Preview your work before it is printed by using print preview
Print preview allows you to preview and make amendments to your work before it is printed. You can also change the layout of your work from portrait to landscape or vice versa. These are all handy tools which prevent you using unnecessary ink or toner from your cartridge.
To access this function scroll down in the file menu to select print preview. You can hit Esc to return to your normal view.
Only select the pages which you wish to print
Avoid wasting unnecessary paper and ink by not printing out pages you don’t need by selecting the page numbers you only wish to print out in the print dialogue box.
Learn to use the print properties box
Using the print properties box can help save you lots of money with your ink or toner cartridges. Print properties can do many things but the there are two main options you should learn to use, these are,
- Select your print quality mode, - draft, normal or best
- Select either Black or Colour printing
More ink is used in higher print settings and colour ink is generally more expensive than Black so bear this in mind when your printing out things like recipes, driving directions and other general printing. Draft mode is also quicker to print with.
To select your print quality and help save money using your printer cartridges go to Print>Properties>Print Quality.
When you do need colour printing but not best quality colour you should switch to greyscale mode which can be found in the colour tab in print properties.
Print heads in ink cartridges
If you barely use your printer you might notice that the ink level seems to go down. This is because your printer will run an automatic head clean on your ink cartridges to keep them working correctly. To avoid this switch your machine off at the on /off button – not the wall socket to ensure your printer is reset before powering down. It is also a good idea to print at least one colour page per week if possible to keep your ink cartridge heads clear and avoid running costly cleaning cycles.
Print off your copies efficiently from the web
In your browser you can select to only print text off and not images which uses up more ink from your ink cartridges. To do this uncheck the > Print Background Colour and Images box which is located in under file > page setup if you use Firefox or internet options > advanced if you use Internet Explorer.
Look for printable version links on your email, attachments and web pages to avoid printing out unwanted advertisements, images and pages. This way you won’t waste any ink from your ink cartridges and help save money.
Look for PDF options for documents you wish to print. You can save and print these later like any standard document you wish to print or avoid using your ink or toner cartridges alltogther.
Consider compatible Ink Cartridges
You can save a significant amount of money with your printing when you switch to high quality compatible ink or toner cartridges while still keeping your print quality high.
21st Century Printing
Printing has come along a long way since its inception. You can now transmit documents to be printed wirelessly, professional photographers can instantly send images they have just taken to newspapers for printing, yes indeed printing has come a long way. So too has the methods of reproduction of text, images and graphics onto your page. With the advent of the technological revolution we have seen consistently more advanced and environmentally friendly ink and toner cartridges being produced for your consumption. Ink and toner cartridges these days boast sophisticated ink and toner delivery systems which use increasingly small, microscopic ink and toner particles to give you enhanced image quality and reduction of graininess being produced onto your page.
In the beginning there were metal plates and woodblock printing, primitive and crude forms of printing compared to the advanced ink and toner printing techniques we now use daily to produce all our documentation, presentations, images and graphics with. Customers are presented with a vast array of ink and toner printing choices when considering which printer to buy. There are machines tailored for all printing needs, from printing within the home setting to full, high definition graphical printing with machines that cost tens of thousands of pounds.
The main choice always boils down to one main factor though, cost. An initial heavy investment of a printing device can pay dividends over time because generally ink and toner cartridges for these machines give you more pages and higher quality printing than cheap machines which do the exact opposite. When looking for a printer the main considerations should be what you need it for, what functions do you require and what are the machines running costs. Once you have indentified these factors you should be able to narrow your choice down to a specific area with printers that are targeted towards your needs. Before you buy it is always a good idea to look at your printers printing consumables, specifically their cost and the number of pages your ink or toner cartridges produce. If you think your ink or toner cartridges for this machine are too expensive then there is most likely to be several other printers with identical functions and features for you to choose from.
In this day and age you should probably consider the impact that your printing has on the environment, a litre of ink going into the manufacture of one ink cartridge should not only turn heads but make you more environmentally aware of the impact your consumption has on the environment. If your ink or toner cartridges are not recycled the plastic will sit and land fill from 450 to 1000 years and many plastic’s are not biodegradable anyway and could theoretically last forever. Many manufactures these days promote the use of recycled materials in the manufacture of their ink and toner cartridges and some claim to use manufacturing processes which result in a reduction of C02 gasses released into the atmosphere. Gel ink and solid ink cartridges are now available with their manufactures paving the way for more environmentally friendly printing. Although Gel ink or solid ink cartridges are not well known to most people they are well worth consideration for all the fantastic benefits that they bring to the printing consumables market. The main one of these is that they still enable your printing to look great, with rich, vibrant colours and crystal clear image detail.
A brief history of printing.
In this short examination of the history of printing we will go through the technological advances associated with each phase of printing starting from the time of electrical appliances.
The origins of electrical printing can be traced back to as early as 1953 with the first use of government computers which required physical copies of their documents. In 1971 Xerox completed the design of the first laser printer which took toner cartridges, five years later the first inkjet printer was invented which became available for home use in 1988 and cost a massive $1000 to purchase.
Wide use electrical printing really came about when electrical typewriters were being phased out and a new form of printing was required (these printers took ink cartridges and toner cartridges) to meet the needs of using the word processor and personal computer. This final stage is typically represented with Canon’s Telestar 110 electronic typewriter model which was released in 1989.
The HP LaserJet 8ppm was the first laser printer which took toner cartridges intended for mass use and was released in 1984.
Up until 1990 dot matrix printers were the most common printer in use with personal computers and word processors. This style of ink printer which can still be seen to be in use today by trade is loud, slow and has poor output quality. It is anticipated that thermal printing will eventually replace this crude form of ink printing altogether as it is more suited to the needs of trade businesses.
Inkjet printing technology eventually surpassed that of Dot-matrix in the mid-1990s, and it is then when the common use of the inkjet cartridge was widespread.
Over the year’s inkjet and toner cartridge printers have developed to become more efficient and productive than previous models. Inkjet and toner cartridge printers these days have become smaller, faster, have more features, are more cost-efficient and are easier to use. The latest inkjet and toner cartridge printers released now connect to the internet and there are portable printers, scanners available to use to. One of the latest printing innovations is an inkless colour printer which uses a zinc plate instead of ink. This form of printer is in the early stages of development but has promising attributes which indicate the possible future of printing.
Why choose compatible ink cartridges?
There are many reason why you should try our compatible ink cartridges here at InkNTonerUK. Firstly all our compatible ink cartridges are considerably cheaper than original ink cartridges which helps you save even more money with printing with your inkjet printer. Secondly all our are compatible ink cartridges are of the highest possible quality and deliver consistently great looking printing from your inkjet printer.
Here at InkNTonerUK we only stock the finest compatible ink cartridges and strive to ensure that each and every compatible ink cartridge that we sell will provide our customers with the great printing performance which we promise. Our compatible ink cartridges are the ideal choice for all your day to day printing needs due to the bright, vivid colour they produce at a fraction of the price of originals.
We individually test all our compatible inkjet cartridges here at InkNTonerUK and source all our compatible ink tank cartridges from the finest cartridge remanufacturers in the world. We do all this while supplying our compatible ink cartridges to you at highly competitive prices because here at InkNTonerUK we believe that our customers deserve the best at the minimum cost.
There are two main types of compatible ink cartridges which we sell. They are compatible inkjet cartridges and compatible ink tank cartridges. The main and only real difference between a compatible inkjet cartridge and compatible ink tank cartridge is that the inkjet cartridge has the printhead attached to the cartridge while the ink tank cartridge has its corresponding print head located separately in the printer. Compatible ink tank cartridges are generally cheaper due to this fact as they are literally a tank of ink. You will still need to eventually replace your printhead for your compatible ink tank cartridge once it has become used and worn.
We only use the highest quality pigment inks in the remanufacturing process of our compatible ink cartridges and have invested heavily in the latest remanufacturing technology. We specialise in the remanufacturing of compatible HP ink cartridges and have spent several years perfecting the various techniques of providing our customers with what we believe to be the best compatible HP ink cartridges currently on the market. Before we dispatch our compatible ink cartridges we run tests on them to ensure that when you get your compatible ink cartridge that it will work perfectly out of the box from the first to last print.

We also offer a 100% no quibble money back guarantee if for whatever reason you are not entirely satisfied with your purchase of compatible ink cartridges for your printer. We do this because we truly believe in the quality of our compatible ink cartridges and the price we provide them at. We also offer a refill service on a range of compatible ink cartridges which we sell, so when you buy your compatible ink cartridges from us you should check to see that once your compatible ink cartridge has become empty you can send your compatible ink cartridge back to us to be refilled and help save yourself even more money.
