Upgrading an Inkjet Printer

“I would like to buy a new printer but I have no idea which one to get. Can you help me please?” This is the question that is always being asked time and time again by customers in inkntoneruk.co.uk cartridge shop. We have identified 5 pillars that will enable you to make a more educated decision when buying an inkjet printer and will give you a better idea on what you can expect from your device after you have purchased it.

Tip 1: Buy more expensive printer

Remember, cheap printer = expensive ink.

This might sound outlandish to some people but you do not want to buy a printer that takes ink cartridges which are more expensive than the printer itself. I would recommend to look at the printers that cost £100 upwards.

Tip 2: Find out the cost per page (CPP)

To find out the cost per page simply divide the price by the page yield of the inkjet cartridge.

For Example:

If the price of a HP inkjet cartridge is £25.92 and page yield is 2,000 pages therefore the CPP = 1.3p per page.

2592 / 2000 = 1.296

Tip 3: Find out pages per minute (PPM)

When you identify printers and cartridges that will suit your pocket and wallet, it’s time to take a look at the printer specifications. Pages per minute or PPM is usually displayed by the manufacturer so be sure to check it out to find the fastest machine. The faster you print the less time you waste, the less time you waste the more productive you and your office will be.

Tip 4: Dots per inch (DPI)

The speed of the device loses it’s credibility if the prints are unclear or blurry. The last thing you want is your office documents to be fuzzy. That is why you should also check dots per inch. The DPI is usually displayed as 600 x 600 and 1200 x 1200 the higher the  DPI the better quality your printings will be.

Tip 5: Read the printer reviews

Nobody will give you a better advice than the people who already used the device, so take your time and go through the printer reviews before you commit to buying it. Some printers have minor faults and reoccurring problems and not always deliver what you expect. For example, on the printer box it might say that wi-fi is easy to connect. However, after reading reviews you might find that others struggled.

Conclusion

Look at HP, Canon and Epson products and don’t forget to check all 5 recommended tips. We hope that this Blog Post informed you on upgrading an Inkjet Printer.

InknTonerUK Website Improvements

Here at InknTonerUK we always strive to keep ink cartridge and toner cartridge prices to bare minimum and improve our overall customer service whenever possible. That is why, we have introduced new website improvements. The new feature gives our customers wider choice when buying toner cartridges. Previously Ink’n’TonerUK website offered 2 choices, Compatible Toner Cartridges and Original Toner Cartridges, but now our customers have to make a choice out of 3 options, as additional option has been added, called Budget Compatible and the “Compatible Cartridge” has been changed to “Premium Compatible”. This feature is more difficult to implement, than you might think and it is not feasible with every website. Fortunately, our website is designed in a way that, makes this change possible. Now InknTonerUK.co.uk is one of very few, if not the only site that offers Budget Compatible, Premium Compatible and Original Cartridge for the same printer.

For example, if you would select HP Laserjet P4515N printer and look for high capacity black HP 64 toner cartridge. This is what you would be presented with.

As you can see, the Budget Cartridge price is much cheaper. It can actually be even up to 4 or 5 times cheaper, than the Original.

The new feature gives you options, but how do you know which one is the right for you? Well, if you buy toner cartridges from us often, then you might already have noticed the following buttons on the website which explain Budget Refill Cartridge, Premium Compatible Cartridge and Original Compatible Cartridge.

However, to make sure every customer knows what’s best for them, they need to know as much information as possible about the budget, premium and original cartridges. Below, Budget Cartridges, Premium Cartridges and Original Cartridges are explained in more detail.

Budget Compatible

Choosing Budget compatible cartridges, means you will pay rock bottom price for the cartridges. It is advised to purchase budget compatible, when you print a tremendous amount of prints daily and the printing quality is not a priority. Disadvantage of budget compatibles is that it’s non-recyclable and uses cheaper ink, however print quality is still relatively high.

Premium Compatible

Premium compatible option is probably best value for money to choose. It’s cheaper than originals but quality is much better than the budgets. However, it’s still as good as the original.

Original Cartridge

Original cartridge is made by the same company as the printer and guarantees 100% satisfactory results. It is recommended, if you are a bit fussy about print quality and don’t mind spending a little extra.

Printer TCO (Total Cost of Ownership)

What Is It?

TCO estimates the total cost of ownership of something for the duration of its life, in this case it’s printers. Users may be surprised when they see the TCO of some printers is actually quite high, maybe a lot higher than what they thought it might be. Typically the TCO for a printer is estimated to be a three year period but some modern printers can have up to five years of operational use.

TCO is definitely something you should be considering when buying any printer. It takes into account its running costs and gives you an accurate figure which reflects the cost-efficiency of your printing. Printer TCO also takes into account the limits of a printers monthly due cycle which is the recommended maximum usage for that printer per month.

There are companies out there who don’t want you to figure out what we’re going to tell you because if you did, you wouldn’t buy their printer and ink cartridges in the first place. Luckily for you inkntoneruk are here to give you a helping hand in making an informed choice when it comes to keeping the cost of your printing down.

Let us use this simple TCO mono laser (black and white) printer example to illustrate the importance of considering TCO and of factoring in the hidden running costs.

TCO A4 Laser Printer Example

Usage: 500 Pages per month (1 Paper Ream) over a 3 year period

Example 1HP LaserJet P1005

  • Retails For: £84
  • Toner cartridge cost: £650 (over 36 months)
  • TCO £734

Example 2: Kyocera FS-2020D

  • Retails For: £295
  • Toner cartridge cost: £127.50 (over 36 months)
  • TCO £422.5

You can see, as it is almost always the rule of thumb with printers, the more you spend on buying your printer the cheaper your printer cartridges will be for it. Customers looking for a quick, cheap fix to their printing needs will quickly release it was a costly error when the time comes to replace their cartridges.

It’s worth pointing out that one Kyocera toner cartridge for the FS-2020D will last two years with a 500 page per month usage, while one HP P1005 toner cartridge will last three months! A massive improvement in efficiency all round from Kyocera not to mention to benefits to be had for the environment by curbing landfill waste and resources used in manufacturing and distribution.

How To Calculate Printer TCO

Its easy to calculate TCO for any printer you currently use or are considering purchasing, just add the following costs up:

(a) Purchase cost of the printer

(b) Cost of the replacement ink or toner cartridges

(c) Number of cartridges used (average ink cartridge usage is 20 per annum)

The resulting figure will be the TCO, voilà!

Note:

You should include any other consumables which may need replacing during a three year printing cycle when calculating your TCO. i.e. print heads, waste toner cartridges, fuser units and drum units.
