High demands, low costs
Despite what you may think, one of the most booming markets in the world is printer supplies, namely ink and toner. Of all the liquids in the world, and many uses for those liquids, the most highly demanded and most frequently purchased is ink, such as HP 920XL Black ink. The same goes for the powder found in toner cartridges. These may seem like strange products to be stimulating the economy, but it’s a fact- ink and toner suppliers are some of the most stable of small businesses throughout the nation.
More so than that, third party vendors are seeing a daily increase in business. Whereas manufacturers, such as Xerox, HP or Lexmark, have marked up the price tag on ink and toner, the third party companies that produce compatible products or rebuild old cartridges and sell them as remanufactured have knocked down prices. More people than ever are giving the non name brand products a chance, and most are finding that the quality is virtually the same.
A replacement Okidata 43324404 toner cartridge from the manufacturer could cost hundreds of dollars, but the compatible or remanufactured versions can be found for less than half of that price. These ink and toner cartridges should last for the same amount of prints as the OEM, and reach the same maximum resolutions that provide precision and sharpness to all prints, whether text or graphics.
The increasing popularity of these alternative cartridges have the manufacturers shaking in their boots, and one method of preventing customers from purchasing from outside sources is to threaten the void of warranties. However, this threat holds no water because it is against the law, so don’t let big businesses bully you! The bottom line is, compatible and remanufactured ink and Dell 330-2209 toner cartridges, for instance, are just as good as the OEM versions. They come with a guarantee to provide the same high quality and never negatively affect your printer.
