There are many reasons to have a home printer. It makes it easier for your children to do their homework, it saves you trips to the copy shop, and if you work from home it is a must. But with a home printer comes the cost of replacement toner cartridges. Toner cartridges always seem to run out at the worst time and the price always seems to be going up. Is there anything you can do to keep the cost down on toner or ink? I thought it was just the cost of doing business until I discovered toner refills.
Many people do not use toner refills, maybe because they do not know they exist or maybe because they are not sure how to use them. After all, you want to get something that will be easy to use, right? But refilling a toner cartridge is actually very simple. Toner refills come in the form of large bottles, often enough to fill 10 or more home cartridges. You simply pop open your existing cartridge and top it off with the toner from the refill bottle.
Refills are much cheaper than replacement cartridges. People think this is the kind of thing only a large office would use, but it saves money at home too. They do not take up much space and, as an added advantage, they mean you always have a little more toner on hand if your printer runs out at the worst time.
I recommend looking at this option next time you are at an office store. It is a great way to save money and make your life easier!
