Here are a few tips on how to lower the price of your printing operations. Refill cartridges are expensive and you might be tempted to buy cheap, generic cartridges from flea markets. Never compromise on the quality of your toner/ink cartridges. Opting for branded, good-quality cartridges are worth every penny as it helps maintain the working condition of your printer. Low quality cartridges will have an impact on the printer hardware. Inkjets of substandard quality will also result in poor printing. You might end up having blotchy or faded printouts with these low-cost cartridges. Never hesitate to buy the best-in-quality cartridges for your printer.
Like most products, your printer will last longer if you take good care of it; even an incorrectly resolved paper jam can lead to printing issues in the future. Instead of getting frustrated when a jam does occur and yanking the paper out, refer to the instructions that come with the printer to find the best way to fix a jam on your specific model. Usually, the best practice is to use both hands to slowly pull the jammed paper out of the printer to avoid leaving ripped paper behind or damaging the internal parts of the printer. You can also prevent jams by making sure the paper you load into the printer is not torn, dog-eared or stuck together and that the tray is not overfilled.
Getting a warning that your printer is out of ink? Go ahead and ignore it. In a lab test, PC World found that ink cartridges still contained anywhere from 8 to 45 percent of their ink when this message started to pop up. Thick fonts and bolded text require extra ink to print, so skinny up your text and save. Some ink-sipping fonts to try: Arial and new courier. Want to save even more? Download Ecofont, a free font that uses 20 percent less ink by placing small white circles within each character.
Printing with regularity keeps your cartridges primed and ready to go, lowering the likelihood that your ink settles. It will also prevent the ink in the nozzle from drying up and creating clogs. When printing articles or emails, print in draft mode. This uses less ink per page and will actually print faster than regular mode. Unless you’re printing photos or something for a presentation, there is usually no need to print in the highest quality setting. Don’t run the print cleaning too often. Cleaning your printhead is designed to prevent clogs and maintain the quality of your prints but running it repeatedly can quickly deplete your cartridge’s ink supply. If you are attempting to fix a quality issue and have to continuously run the cleaning function, it may be time to get a new cartridge.
