• WHY CHOOSE COMPATIBLE PRINT CARTRIDGES - A Perspective

• 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.
