The present economic condition allows us to save money at the office and home printer expense. The single largest ongoing expense with a printer is the printer cartridge. If you are planning to purchase a new printer, opt for color printers that use separate ink cartridges for different colors- black, cyan, magenta and yellow as opposed to one tricolor cartridge. This way, you can replace the specific colors as they run out without having to change the entire unit. A tricolor cartridge is a single cartridge with three color chambers.

Another way to save on the cost of printer cartridge is to refill them yourselves or go to a refilling store. Some people get worried by the process and others question the quality. Others don’t want to trouble themselves with the mess or time when they can get compatible cartridges online at pretty decent prices and at utmost comfort.

Moreover, there is a tip to extend the life of a toner cartridge; you can give your toner cartridge a little shake when you get the low-ink signal. This can help get the toner flowing but be cautious while doing this because the toner is so fine that it will find its way out of many openings in the cartridge and make a mess on your clothes. Another way to reduce total operational cost is by saving on paper. If you print something temporary on the back of the sheets that have only one side printed, you will get twice the use from one sheet and thereby, saving a large amount of money.
