Have you ever wanted to find out about the some things nobody told you about inkjet printer ink refills? Have you ever wondered why your favorite store or office supply store only sells a limited selection of printer ink or doesn't carry it at all? The truth is that most people don't know much about inkjets, refills, or what they are used for. Here are some facts that will surprise you. Most people think that inkjet printers are just for printers. But the truth is that inkjet and laser printer inkjet refills are also used in copiers, fax machines, and any other piece of electronic equipment you can think of that uses ink. In fact, your cell phone may actually print from an inkjet cartridge. And those who need photo printing capabilities will be happy to know that they can get a printer ink refill from almost any store or office supply center. There is no limit to the applications. Now, we all know that many of us are not going to go out and purchase refills at the local convenience store. That's simply too expensive. But if you really want to enjoy the wide variety of products available, the best thing to do is shop online. That's right: there are plenty of reputable online stores that carry all kinds of ink, including new or refilled ink. But, it's important to keep a few things in mind. It is very easy to be taken in by online advertisements that seem too good to be true. The temptation is to simply pick up the first ink cartridge you see because it says "cheap" or "free." Some people even try to justify their lack of knowledge by saying that they don't buy from online stores, since they aren't buying ink. It's true that some stores sell ink that doesn't come with any refills. But, that's not what they are selling. They are selling you ink that you can refill at your own convenience and for a small cost. Many online ink stores have an option for you to buy one box of ink, but usually you'll have to order it by phone. In other words, it's like ordering a pizza from your favorite pizza joint. If they offer it, you can order it. If they don't, you can't. The same applies to refills. Online refilling services will allow you to order from anywhere in the world, and you don't have to pick up the phone and make an extra stop just to purchase a cartridge. Ink cartridges and refills are not cheap. You can easily spend more than $100 on a single cartridge. That's not including the cost of the paper and printer that you'll need to print out your documents. When you factor in the shipping costs, the total can quickly add up to more than you may have initially thought you would pay. So, before you purchase an ink cartridge or refill kit, check out a few different places. See if they offer refill services. You might be able to purchase refilled ink from them without a huge mark-up. If you're looking for something more expensive, check out the online ink stores. Often they will have more competitive prices than your neighborhood store, and they stock a much wider range of ink. Don't assume that you can't find a great deal. People often try to avoid the big box stores, but they often fail to look in their local grocery stores first. Chances are that there are some local places that specialize in ink cartridge refill. Your local library might even sell cartridges if they're refillable. They probably won't carry brand names, but you can still find whatever you're looking for there. When it comes time to purchase an ink cartridge or refill kit, remember that you'll be getting what you pay for. If you go with the cheaper refilled cartridge, you'll likely find that it won't last very long before you need to replace it. On the other hand, if you go with a more expensive brand name, you'll likely be happy with the performance of the cartridge for a longer period of time. Even though you might not like the results of the ink-replacement process, you should always go with quality products. You don't want to waste your time or money on something that won't do anything for you. Ink cartridges have the ability to change a whole lot of things about your life. Find out what they can do for you before you choose what you want to use in your printer. There's nothing wrong with ordering a refilled cartridge from a store, but you should always look into buying it online.
