What You Should Know About Solid Ink Printers
printer ink cartridges
Solid ink printers replace the liquid, and the need for containers to hold it, with a solid wax based ink stick. Xerox says that their printers, like the Phaser series, produce more brilliantly colored images than toner based laser printers.
Solid ink printers are economical. The average ink cost for a color page is less than $0.15, a saving of about $.10 per page as compared to laser printers. The cost is reduced further is a company opts for the free color printer program that Xerox offers wherein there is no upfront cost and the user pays just $0.12 per color page printed, including ink and service costs, for the first 2000 pages.
Top 5 Tips For Maximizing the Life of Ink Printer Cartridges
1. Only print the necessities.
2. You should print text instead of graphics.
3. Utilize the Print Preview function.
Print Preview is a very helpful tool that gives a snap shot of how the finished document will look once printed. Print preview can help you manipulate text, characters, and spacing and decide which pages or selections need to be printed.
4. Print text only with the black ink printer cartridges (disable the color cartridge).
Print text documents that are just black and white and no color with only the black ink printer cartridges. Always select black and white printing instead of color printing when possible. If you are going to print black text with color ink printer cartridges, several colors are mixed and manipulated to create black ink.
5. If possible, print in draft mode.
Utilize the “draft print” quality tool whenever possible.
