Supplies are a bigger investment than the Printer

TIPS ON TONER SUPPLIES

  1. Ensure you can easily get supplies when you buy your printer, copier and fax machines.  (There’s nothing worse than a promotional machine for which you won’t get supplies in a few months.)
  2. Check prices – big box stores are not necessarily competitive.
  3. Check supply cost before buying equipment.  Machines are inexpensive because the supplies are the REAL product.
  4. Check if a fully guaranteed compatible or remanufactured product is available.  (Recently, Lexmark took steps to keep alternate suppliers out, while HP encouraged third party suppliers)
  5. Does the supplier also service equipment on site.
  6. Ask about delivery arrangements.
  7. Find a knowledgeable supplier.  For instance, you may not notice on the shelf that HP has some cartridges with 3 different fill levels (capacities).  Which one are YOU buying?
  8. For remanufactured products, don’t just look at price.   Some remanufactured cartridges do not include disassembly and a new drum.  You want it.
  9. Remanufactured products are usually as good as originals, third party replacements are often as good.  Choose a supplier who knows the difference,  will tell you the facts, and stand behind his/her supplies.

10.  Independent suppliers are often your best bet for knowledge, service and price.
