Sale On Ink (www.saleonink.com) and their printing affiliate, Carrot Ink (www.saleonink.com/carrotink/), give you a helpful tip for saving money when it comes to printing: refill kits!
For the thrifty shopper, this can be quite a bargain, especially since using an inkjet refill kit and refilling the one you have makes more sense. For a fraction of the price, you simply refill the empty cartridge with compatible ink and you’re on your way.
If you are looking to cut your printing costs, inkjet refill kits can be a tempting solution. In a comparison for Dell 720 printers, replacement OEM cartridges for black ink can run as much as $28 for a 17 ml cartridge. A compatible remanufactured cartridge for the same printer costs $19.99 per cartridge. You save some money, but not nearly as much as you would with an inkjet refill kit, which for the Dell 720 retails at $12.95 for 40 ml of ink!
If this sounds too good to be true a simple look at the math involved tells us 40 mls of ink can refill 2 1/2 cartridges. At two refills per $12.95 refill, this works out to $6.50 a cartridge! Carrot Ink offers quality ink at 30-70% off the OEM cartridge price!
A downside to the inkjet refill kit is the actual work of refilling a cartridge. Some inkjet refill kits use a screw tool to open the cartridges. Some use plugs, while others still require a hole be punched in them (one site actually recommends covering the hole with duct tape)! For the less technically inclined, this can be a messy, cumbersome ordeal that ultimately results in stained hands, ruined clothes, and an emergency trip to the local computer store for a pre-filled cartridge.
If you don’t mind the extra work, you may be able to find a nice way to cut your printing expenses by as much as 70%! That kind of savings is enough to make even the least handy of us go out and give it a try. Visit Sale On Ink for more information!
