The Expensive Part About Inkjet Printer Ink

Sorry, I can’t help you. Let’s face it, that’s why they practically give the printers away. Now when you buy a computer, it usually comes with a printer and a $100 rebate of some kind. So you leave thinking, “It’s practically free”.

In fact, head to Google and type in “large format inkjet printer” and then watch to see how much competition there is for that keyword WHILE THERE IS ALMOST NO RESULTS FOR IT!!!

Next you go home, hook it up, download the software package and that’s when they got you. From this point on, that is your printer and you need to feed it a steady diet of ink, lots of ink, sick amounts of ink. At first if you’re like me, you get your ink were you bought your computer, right? I mean, Best Buy, Staples or any of the big box stores. You’re thinking, I got my computer there, why not get the inks there. Wrong answer, you can save so much money by ordering your inks online. Simply typing in “ Inks on line” or any variation of that, you will be sent to a never ending population of “cheap ink this” or “low cost inks online, whatever” So shop around, some don’t really offer much savings but it’s still more convenient than trekking to the nearest strip mall, finding a parking space and asking some guy named “ skippy’ “where do you keep your printer inks?”

One more tip, make sure you have the exact ink brand name and number, they all look and sound the same, trust me, I’ve made this mistake before, so get it right, repacking, driving to the post and sending them back is more hassle than you want.

And it goes without saying that you want to get your new large format inkjet printer and the ink for it at the lowest imaginable prices.

So to wrap this up, take the time to shop online, believe me, you will save money and time down the road. Now it’s time for me to hit print.
