Why buy InknTonerUK Mice, Keyboards and Cables?

Featured

Today’s digital era has made prolonged computer use the norm. However, frequent pain and potential health problems can result from this continual engagement with technology. Fortunately, there is an easy fix: spending money on ergonomic gear. Let’s examine the advantages of using an ergonomic mouse, keyboard, and HDMI cable in your computer setup in more detail.

Ergonomic Computer Mouse

An ergonomic mouse is intended to reduce the stress that using a regular mouse might put on your hand and wrist. Ergonomic mouse increase comfort throughout prolonged usage by encouraging a more natural hand posture. A pleasant grip is provided by the curved forms and soft materials, avoiding pain and potential repetitive strain injuries (RSIs).

Ergonomic Computer Keyboard

Furthermore, customizable features like programmable buttons and adjustable sensitivity are frequently included with ergonomic mouse. Improved accuracy and control are made possible by this customisation, particularly for activities like graphic creation or gaming that call for precise motions. It not only improves performance but also lessens the possibility of strain and tiredness.

Similar to how an ergonomic keyboard has several advantages. By encouraging a neutral wrist position and easing the pressure on your hands and fingers, it makes typing more pleasant. As a result, there is a considerably lower chance of getting ailments like carpal tunnel syndrome.

HDMI Cable

Last but not least, purchasing a premium HDMI cable might improve your whole computer experience. A high-definition and dependable connection between your computer and external display devices is made possible by an HDMI cable. You can enjoy films, games, and other multimedia stuff to the fullest extent thanks to the audiovisual quality it provides.

In conclusion, adding ergonomic devices to your computer setup may have a significant positive impact on your comfort, productivity, and general health. A mouse and keyboard that are ergonomically designed provide improved comfort, lower the risk of strain injuries, and increase accuracy. A top-notch HDMI cable also guarantees a fluid audiovisual experience. The cost of purchasing these ergonomic add-ons is a minor thing to pay for the long-term advantages and a better computing experience.

HDMI Cable

How does Printing REALLY work?

Featured

It’s simple to take the act of printing images or papers for granted. When we press the print button, ink and paper miraculously emerge. But have you ever pondered how ink in printers truly transfers to the paper? Let’s look more closely.

The most popular kind of printers used in households and workplaces are inkjet models. They function by dispersing microscopic ink droplets onto the paper. The ink cartridge, which holds liquid ink in a variety of colours, is where the process begins. A printhead within the printer sweeps the paper back and forth, dispersing the ink droplets in organised patterns.

The printhead is an advanced technological device with several tiny nozzles. Ink droplets are ejected onto the paper by these nozzles, which can number in the thousands. To achieve exact ink placement, the nozzles’ movement and timing are carefully regulated.

Cyan, magenta, yellow, and black (CMYK) inks are used in conjunction by inkjet printers to produce the necessary colours. The printer may create a broad range of hues and tones by adjusting the strength and positioning of these four colours. Even more ink cartridges are used by certain premium printers to produce more accurate and vivid colour reproduction.

The ink droplets are generally propelled by inkjet printers using thermal and piezoelectric technology. Ink is forced onto the paper by a vapour bubble created when thermal inkjet printers heat the ink inside the nozzle. Ink droplets are ejected from piezoelectric inkjet printers using small crystals that alter form in response to an electric current.

The final printed picture or text is produced as soon as the ink droplets are discharged onto the paper and swiftly absorb into the fibres. Because certain papers are made to absorb ink better than others, producing sharper prints, the kind of paper used can have an impact on the quality of the printed output. For example, InknToner UK’s Photo Paper!

You may now understand the complex process that goes on within your printer the next time you press the print button and watch as your work appears on paper. Your computer works are translated into the actual world by a mix of technology and chemistry, from the exact movement of the printhead to the regulated ejection of ink droplets.

75 Years of the NHS: A Remarkable Journey of Healthcare and Collaboration

Featured

The NHS recently turned 75, marking a big milestone in the UK’s healthcare history. It’s an incredible achievement that deserves recognition. Let’s take a closer look at the NHS’s amazing impact and how the printing industry has played a part in supporting its mission.

The Birth of the NHS

In 1948, the NHS came to life with a mission to provide free healthcare for all. It brought doctors, nurses, hospitals, and more together, changing how healthcare worked in the UK.

Healthcare for Everyone and Collaboration

The NHS made sure that everyone, regardless of money, could get medical care. At the same time, the printing industry pitched in to help the NHS. They printed important stuff like patient records, prescriptions, and leaflets. This collaboration improved communication and made patient care better.

Innovation and Progress

The NHS has always been a leader in medical progress and new ideas. They’ve come up with amazing treatments and done groundbreaking research. And the printing industry has been there to support them. They’ve printed medical journals, research papers, and other important stuff to share knowledge and get healthcare pros working together.

Dedication and Strength

The NHS owes its success to the people who work there. Doctors, nurses, and other healthcare heroes go above and beyond to take care of patients. And the printing industry helps them out by making sure they have all the materials they need. This way, healthcare pros can focus on saving lives.

Impact on Society and Teamwork with the Printing Industry

The NHS has done more than just healthcare. It’s made life better for everyone. It’s improved public health, made sure everyone gets the same care, and helped people live healthier lives.

The printing industry has also played a part in this. They’ve printed campaigns, materials for promoting good health, and things to spread awareness. Together, they’ve reached all kinds of people and given them the power to take charge of their health.

So, in conclusion, as we celebrate 75 years of the NHS, let’s remember the incredible achievements in providing healthcare for all and the support of the printing industry. The NHS’s dedication, progress, and teamwork have changed so many lives for the better. Here’s to another 75 years of the NHS and more collaboration for a healthier future.

Epson conducts raids against counterfeiters in India

Featured

Printing giant, Epson has worked together with local Indian law enforcement agencies in order to expose false ink manufacturers illegally selling counterfeit inks and products under the Epson brand name.

Counterfeit Epson Inks

Raids conducted by Epson and Indian law enforcement were coordinated across many Indian cities from April to May. Some cities, where raids were conducted were Mumbai, Kolkata and Bhatinda. Individuals involved in the production and distribution of these counterfeit products were apprehended and charged with counterfeiting and violating intellectual property rights.

Counterfeiters in India tried to make and sell fake Epson products

A large number of false ink bottles, packaging materials, labels and holograms were seized. Around 9,357 fake bottles were taken, along with other printing materials intended to be used under the companies’ name.

An Epson India spokesperson stated, “We have a firm commitment, to safeguard the rights of Epson customers and our business by fighting against counterfeit manufacturers. The partnership between Epson and the local law enforcement authorities showcases the relentless efforts to eradicate unethical practices”.

Epson regularly conducts and will conduct these types of raids while collaborating and supporting law enforcement agencies and their workers, as they respect and value their customers, and ensure authenticity and reliability of its products – all to protect customers and business.

HP Sparks Anger after Disabling Printers

Featured

HP has sparked outrage from its users. Millions of HP printers have been blocked, leaving users confused as to why. The answer – cheaper, compatible cartridges are the reason.

HP has blocked off any possibility of purchasing compatible cartridges through a new firmware update. If a cartridge isn’t an official HP cartridge, the new update detects this and automatically blocks users from printing anything out. This resulted in a huge backlash against the company. HP describes their decision as “protecting its intellectual property”, “dynamic security” and the decision has been made “to enhance the overall printing experience for customers”. HP’s explanations, however, have not made the public sympathise with them. People feel cheated, angry and milked for their money – forced to adopt more expensive products.

The anger and uproar coming from the people is understandable. Non-Original cartridges are much cheaper than Originals. It’s not uncommon to see Non-Originals at half the price of Originals, or even up to 80% when compared to each other. Clearly, purchasing these compatible products is highly popular.

The update first began being released earlier this year, in March, however, many HP users are finding out only now that an update that blocks their cheaper cartridges is installed on the printer. Now, HP users are stuck between two choices – spend more money for Originals and keep their current HP printer, or buy a printer from a different company, where Non-Original cartridges can still be installed, losing HP customers. Many are thinking of doing exactly that – leaving HP products behind and find something better for them.

HP tried to fix things by introducing a monthly “Instant Ink” subscription plan that can save customers 70% on cartridges. Prices start from 99p, with the most popular option (as stated by HP themselves) is the ability to print 100 pages for £4.49 per month.

We mentioned that with Non-Originals you can save even 50%. With InknToner UK cartridges, you can save up to 80% with our compatible cartridges! Our amazing ink and toner cartridges maintain the fantastic quality of originals, beat their prices and have equal or HIGHER page yields than Originals! Of course, we don’t only offer cartridges. Our new stock of office and computing accessories brings in completely new, low prices! Try our photo paper, it goes perfectly together with our cartridges – and our label tapes… a choice you wont regret.

InknToner UK – You’ll never regret a purchase from us!

Ricoh has released new products made from recycled materials. Ricoh’s new A3 multifunction printer – 50% of the printer is made from recycled materials from the UK.

Ricoh's New Recycled Printers

Konica Minolta EV Delivery Success!

Featured

Konica Minolta has started delivering some of its products to customers in various Indian cities as part of the Go-Green strategy. This intiative deepens the company’s commitment to a cleaner environment by decreasing pollution levels – especially in India, one of the most polluted countries on earth.

India is one of the most polluted areas on Earth. Konica Minolta aims to reduce some pollution by using Electric Vehicles in some Indian Cities.

Electric Vehicle drivers can take only small machines for now, weighing under 100kg. The company make us of 2-wheeler and 3-wheeler vehicles to complete the deliveries. It’s a practical way to move around the cities around the country, as they are no stranger to traffic jams, many people and lots of vehicles without much space to move around.

India is a place with lots of traffic and vehicles harmful to the environment, especially in larger cities.

A really supportive part of this initiative was the positive response of customers to the innovative strategies. Konica Minolta’s Managing Director, Katsuhisa Asari, has said himself that the company is “grateful for our customers’ positive response to our transition to eco-friendly transport, which has facilitated a smooth and efficient switch.”

Furthermore, the electric vehicles operate on rechargeable battery-based engines, which emit no toxic emissions, protecting the environment and public health! It also reduces costs for the Japanese company, as the environmentally friendly vehicles require less maintenance than traditional, fuel-based vehicles.

Konica Minolta has set a long-term environmental goal to reduce carbon emissions by 60% by 2030 and 80% by 2050. The firm also has a program to collect MFP’s and printers from customers in order to recycle them.

Environment Protection

At InknToner UK, we also aim to recycle and help the environment in any way possible. For example, our compatible cartridges, whether its inks or toners, are recycled and sold for a cheaper price, while maintaining the same great quality as originals (sometimes even better!) and equal or potentially larger page yields than big-brand products.

The Coronation of King Charles III and Camilla

Featured

Tommorow, on Saturday, May 6th 2023, a very well-known event will take place – the Coronation of the new King of England, Charles III and his wife Camilla. After the passing of his mother, Queen Elizabeth II, Charles III took over the responsibility of governing the United Kingdom and 14 other Commonwealth nations around the world as King.

After 70 years of Queen Elizabeth II’s reign (the longest reign of any British monarch and 2nd longest in history, second only to Louis XIV), the public will be able to once again celebrate the Coronation of the monarch. Charles III, on the other hand, is the oldest monarch to ascend the British throne, surpassing the former record holder, King William IV.

King Charles III

There is no doubt that the ceremonies taking place at Westminster Abbey will be special and a rare event that will be viewed by millions around the world. Though there are people who will not watch the Coronation due to controversies surrounding the Coronation and Royal Family, many are already also waiting outside Buckingham Palace and other known places around Central London just to see the King and Queen Consort – even as early as 10 days before the Coronation takes place!

The public has also been encouraged to swear allegiance to Charles and very few have gotten tickets to attend the Coronation. Preparations for the Coronation and safety measures are being taken into account with all the planning, costs and other factors contributing to the event.

Saturday 6th May 2023 - King Charles III and Camilla's Coronation

Many will bring along flags and banners with the King on them to celebrate and show their support for the monarch. You may have seen some around, whether they’re sold on streets and shops, hung around in people’s homes, windows and walls or on TV and online. Why spend your money on (sometimes) expensive flags you can make yourself for lower prices AND share with your family, friends and anyone else interested?

The Union Jack Flag

Try our amazing quality inks and toners, which will bring out the colours, tones and vibrant details in your custom-made flags and photos!

Moreover, do you want a strong, sturdy flag? Try out our incredible photo paper!

Now, you can make your own flag with Charles on it, or a banner showing your support for the new King of England (or not….).

Anyways, we hope you yet again enjoy the long Bank Holiday Weekend and have fun tomorrow. See you next week!

Almost halfway through 2023 – What’s new in Printing?

Featured

It’s almost May! It seems like the year just began, and we are already nearly halfway through 2023! Why is May so important this year, especially in the UK? Well, first of all, we’ll be having a bank holiday on Monday! The long weekend will give us a chance to relax, take some time for ourselves and have a nice, short 4 day working week. The week after, we’ll have another Monday off due to the Coronation of King Charles III and his wife Camilla.

We will write more about the King and his Coronation next week. In the meantime, we’ll be looking at what’s new in the printing industry.

China to build a moon base using 3D Printers?

Firstly, China plans to build a 3D-Printed base on the moon in the next few years, which is a revolutionary step for mankind, space travel and inhabiting another planet, which humans have been striving towards and planning for years now. Entrepreneurs, most notably Elon Musk, have been trying to colonise Mars for years now, with hopes of some progress and plans for Mars bases also being made for the future.

Lego 3D Printer can print skin?

In other news, back on our planet, Lego has built a 3D Printer capable of printing human skin. The printer creates layers of skin cells for now, but scientists from Cardiff University, who built the printer, hope that one day the machine will be able to print skin properly. It’ll be difficult as there are factors that limit the printing of skin. For example, the limited supply of human skin and tissue that is available to study. The scientists used bio-ink containing living cells to print the skin cells.

Lego has made some incredible things in the past, such as a full life-size scale Velociraptor, Batmobile and even cities. Many people, organisations and communities have constructed some large and impressive builds in the past, and it seems that Lego innovation and new techniques won’t end for a long, long time.

3D Printer

The printing industry is still thriving, still evolving, and still innovating and changing. We love to see new things in the printing industry, especially the new ground-breaking and record-shattering things like printing 3D skin or building moon bases from 3D printed materials.

What does InknTonerUK offer?

InknTonerUK might not offer 3D Printers that can build you a home on the moon, or print skin cells for you, BUT we can offer you some amazing quality inks and toners, as well as photo paper, label tapes and many, many more products that will probably be more useful to you.
