How many times can I refill a toner cartridge?

8th January

It’s a perfectly good question, on this blog I urge you to investigate the few firms who can help you refill your toner cartridge with ease. Every time you do refill the cartridge you’re saving about 60-80% of the cost of a new cartridge, and there is virtually no environmental impact. But how many times can you keep refilling a laser toner cartridge.

Well it’s actually quite a difficult question, it’s a bit like asking how long your car will last or how many years before my TV needs replacing. There is no specific correct answer as it tends to vary from cartridge to cartridge but for the vast majority of cartridges two or three is easily achievable. Many people keep refilling them until the printouts start being affected.

There are a couple of main reasons why you can’t keep refilling the toner cartridges indefinitely –

OPC Drum – inside your Toner cartridge, where the image is created before being copied onto the page. This will eventually wear our, however it will often keep going for many refills – it depends on the make. There are some printers where this drum can be replaced separately though, so that no longer becomes an issue.

Toner Waste – Toner cartridges all collect their own waste, the unused ink from a printout usually gets collected in a waste section of the cartridge. Eventually this will overflow and cause marks to appear on the printed page. You can empty this manually to extend the life, in much the same way as you make a little hole to refill. In most cartridges you can make a hole in the waste compartment to empty it. Personally I never bother with this step as normally I can get two or three refills without emptying this section.

Emptying the waste compartment can make your toner go on into double figures for some printers though which would save literally hundreds of dollars. Use any reliable refill firm and ask them their advice, they’ll know the average number of refills for your particular cartridge. Just remember even refilling once is going to save you a lot of money and more than half your printing costs.

Of course it depends on what your printing and what for. I generally refill twice then the third time only put a little ink in and watch the quality. If the print out perhaps starts getting smudges or a reduction in quality tehn I’ll replace the cartridge with a new one and start again.

Using Laser Toner Cartridges

25th October
Using inkjet refills enables people to save lots of money simply because they are so much cheaper than buying a brand new cartridge each time they run out of ink.  You can refill toner in all sorts of devices from laset printers, right through to many fax and photocopiers.   If you use a quality replacement there is no difference in print quality or performance between a refilled laser cartridge and a brand new replacement one.  The difference you will notice is the one on your pocket and the impact on the environment. The printer companies or those who sell new toner cartidges don’t like it obviously and will regail you with false tales of damamged printers or reduced print quality.
If you are just conecerned about the costs of purchasing replacement toner and keeping your expensive printer going then the savings will vary depending on the printer.  I usually buy a kit designed for my specific printer then you get all you need and full instructions however you coudl put the components together yourself.  Even with a ready made kit I generally would save around 70% of the cost of buying new toner cartridges and I get to feel a little better carbon wise too !

Some Important Facts About Brother Toner Cartridges

23rd October

In recent years, I’ve noticed a steady increase in the price of printer supplies and a gradual decrease in the cost of the actual printers themselves. With that being said, people are becoming more and more prudent when it comes to buying toner cartridges. Among the leading competitors these days in the printer supplies market is Brother International, which guarantees great value, dependable service and excellent results.

 

In addition to those reasons mentioned above, Brother remains popular today because their office supplies tend to last longer than expected. This attribute seems to go a long way in the eyes of consumers, especially business offices that constantly do a lot of high-volume printing. And for home users who only occasionally print word processing documents, Brother toner has been known to last even a few years. Given the current state of our economy, toner cartridges with a high-yield and lower cost per page are sure to attract a larger audience.

 

Similar to many other brand names, consumers have the option of purchasing original equipment manufacturer cartridges (OEM), compatible cartridges, or remanufactured cartridges. Since OEM cartridges are made by Brother themselves, they typically present the fewest problems and deliver the highest quality results. The only downside to OEM cartridges is that they usually come with a higher price tag compared to remanufactured or compatible toner.

 

Built with recycled components, remanufactured cartridges undergo an extremely thorough process that involves several different steps: disassembling, cleaning, refilling toner, replacing appropriate parts, testing, and repackaging. On the other hand, Brother’s compatible toner cartridges are made by third-party manufacturers, but they use brand new OEM parts. The advantage to purchasing these alternatives is their cheaper price. Some consumers still prefer Brother’s OEM cartridges because they’re often better in the long run, but of course, this is just a matter of personal preference.

 

For the time being, I’ve only worked with Brother tn-580 toner cartridges and Brother tn-460 toner cartridges, but in general, I’ve heard great things all around about their machines and office supplies. In fact, Brother has emerged as one of the most popular brands for not only printers, but also fax machines, copiers, and label makers. One thing I’ve noticed that might be of value to others is that Brother’s cartridges will actually stop the device from printing as soon as the cartridge is empty, whereas other laser printers let you shake it a bit so you have time to go out and buy a new one. All in all, I must say that I’ve been pretty impressed with the value, reliability, and printed results of Brother toner cartridges.

Fax Toner Cartridges

25th September

The fax machine has become the ubiquitous part of the office stationery for the last few years. It combines the facility of the phone and printing message anywhere across the world. Till emails became popular fax machines were the best option to receive information without the trouble of courier and hard copies. The fax copy is as good as original and is a good substitute. It works with the same formula as the printer does. The fax machine works o similar lines where a black toner cartridge is the main mechanism with which the print out is taken out. A fax roll is a special paper that is able to print the message or series of sheets. One can use the ink cartridge, fax ribbon or refill as the ink dries up.

There are many companies that are producing good quality fax toner cartridges and also refills for regular use. Since cost wise the refills are cheaper, they are in frequent use after the OEM (original equipment manufacturer) toner needs refilling. Bottled toner kits are available in the market at lower rates. Normally they are used to bring down the cost. Just as one time ink and ball point pens were refilled so do the fax machine toners can be refilled. The process is more advanced and the quality of printing is also better. One can also get remanufactured copier toners that also do a great job. These refilled toners are also environmentally friendly when they have to be disposed.
