• WHY CHOOSE COMPATIBLE PRINT CARTRIDGES - A Perspective
  A snap shot of an argument for the compatible printer cartridges. This is not necessarily our take on whether you should purchase compatible printer cartridges before genuine cartridges, but more a perspective of what the OEM brand distributors will do to prevent opposition to their product.

• BROTHER TN2450 compatible cartridge with NO chip

  What does it mean by this TN2450 compatible cartridge not having a chip?

  

  This simply allows the customer to remove the chip from the genuine Brother TN2450 high yield which costs you approx AUS$117 on the internet or AUS$141 from large retail outlets after you have used it, and attach it to your newly purchased compatible printer cartridge which costs you $56.90 from ABC Print Supplies

  And the same chip can be used repeatedly. And the generic toner comes with a guarantee to deliver the same print quality as the OEM product.

  The cartridge is supplied with easy to follow operating instructions, and all you need is a screw driver and two minutes of your time - not bad for a saving of $60.

• TONER CARTRIDGES OPTIMUM STORAGE

  

  Toner cartridges are quite robust, but the components are sensitive to light, humidity, and temperature, so in order to achieve maximum performance in the way of highest quality and longest life from your toner, you should follow the following storage procedures.

  Where your printer is then so too should your toner cartridges,in a controlled temperature and humidity environment. If the toner cartridge is packaged then these control conditions are not as important.

  In fact, if you take a toner cartridge out of its packaging, then it is essential to cover the top opening of the cartridge with paper and store in a dark & dry environment.

  For ultimate performance , the following steps should be followed:

  • keep the toner cartridge in its protective original package until installation

  • store lying on its side, not upright, with the same side facing up as if it were installed in the printer

  • Do not store the printer cartridges in any of the following conditions:

  • Temperature over 40 degrees celsius

  • Humidity range less than 20% or greater than 80% as it will effect the texture of the toner itself

  • direct sunlight or room light

  • unclean environment

  • a vehicle over a time period

  • a salty air environment unless sealed packaging

  • Don't touch the surface of the photo-conductive drum in the cartridge

  • Don't expose the toner cartridge to unnecessary shock or vibrations*

  • Never manually rotate he drum, especially in the reverse direction as this can cause toner spillage and even internal damage.

  * although users often give the cartridge a gentle rocking motion when the printer shows the cartridge as empty display to get that little extra usage from it.

   

• DELL IS SAYING 'BYE BYE' TO THE PRINTER MARKET

   

  

  DELL D5765 Printer & Cartridges

  Probably as a result of Dell's merger with EMC, the largest Data Storage supplier in the world, the OEM has stopped producing printers, with warranties on them ceasing in 2021.

  Apparently, existing printers will be repaired and otherwise supported via supply of consumables including printer cartridges through to 2021.

  Stuart Gilbertson, of 'Consider IT's', in his analysis, suggests that the Dell printers seem to be re-branded Xerox or Samsung printers.

  Although genuine printer Cartridges will be gradually withdrawn from the market, the compatible cartridges will keep on being available, partially as a result of the withdrawal of the genuine cartridges creating extra demand from users who are not ready to throw away their printers while breakdown free.

  ABC Print Supplies has been assured by its supplier of Dell compatible cartridges that there are no long term plans to curtail production.

• BROTHER LC3319XL COMPATIBLE INK CARTRIDGES - NEW RELEASE

  

  If you use any of the following Brother Ink Printers, then you can now benefit from real savings on the new compatible printer cartridges just released, the LC3319XL Black, Cyan , Magenta & Yellow ink.

  These include the BROTHER MFC J5330DW, BROTHER MFC J5730DW, BROTHER MFC J6530DW, BROTHER MFC J6730DW, and the BROTHER MFC J6930DW.

  The LC3319XL G & G compatible cartridges offer the highest quality ink, and are produced under the rigorous implementation of ISO 9001 global quality system and ISO 14001 global environment system, by the largest printer cartridge manufacturer in the world.

  And if a technician from a brand name distributor should tell you that compatible printer cartridges will damage your printer, don't believe it. At least, not from G & G. Other  compatible cartridges may not offer true value because the quality of their ink might be detrimental to your printer, especially where there is no quality control.

  ABC Print Supplies has been in business since 2010, and have sold many thousands of compatible (& genuine) cartridges, and although we warrant to replace any printer adversely effected by compatible printer cartridge usage, we have not had one request.

  The real benefit to the user, beside the quality, is the massive saving in price when compared to the genuine brand. For the high quality yield (black 3,000 pages, colours 1,500 pages - same as the genuine ones), our price is $45.80 compared to an average price of $63.74 from 3 suppliers. For the colours our price is $32.90, compared to $40.92. If you realise the difference in the sum total of cartridges with usage requiring say 3 monthly restocking, over a year, it amounts to a saving of $167.60 p.a. 

  Oh, and you might be wondering about the LC-3317 standard ink cartridges. The manufacturer doesn't produce them. If the high yield compatibles sell at a lower/same price than the genuine standard cartridges, then why?
