The end of one year signals the start of another. Businesses are now preparing not only for the tax season but also for their business plans for next year. Management teams also have their hands full at this time of the year because they have to come up with their budget budget plans for next year. Part of this budget plan will be the printer supplies. Yes, more and more companies are now making the effort to go green but paperwork remains inevitable in the office.

You might be spending too much on printer supplies. Printer manufacturers makes use of the “user-based model” which means that they are selling their printers at lower prices since they can make more money from selling OEM toners and inks.
Here is a rundown of savings and costs when using compatible or remanufactured toners and inks:
Table 1: Sample Cost Analysis
Printer Model: HP Color LaserJet CP4005n (CB503A) | Unit Price: $ 1,099.00 | ||||
| Cost/Cartridge ($) | Pages | Cost per Page ($) | Cost/Year ($) * | Savings (vs. OEM) |
OEM | 179.99 | 7,500 | 0.024 | 1,079.94 | |
Premium Compatible Toner | 79.99 | 7,500 | 0.011 | 479.94 | 55% |
Remanufactured Toner | 28.99 | 9,000** | 0.0032 | 144.95 | 87% |
*Cost per Year is calculated assuming that your office replaces black toner cartridges every two months.
**Since the remanufactured toner has more standard page yield, it is assumed that it can last more than 2 months.
From here, you can see that your business can gain more profits by getting more savings from using compatible or remanufactured toners and inks. If you choose OEM toners, a whole year’s supply or consumption is already almost equivalent to the price of a new printer unit.
Premium toner allows you to cut your expenses by more than half with hardly any difference on the print quality and page yield. Users who have tried premium compatible or remanufactured toners and inks say that they did not encounter any issues in installing and in the using premium toners and inks.
The use of remanufactured toners and inks can give you the highest savings. There are no issues or problems with remanufactured toners and inks especially if they are manufactured by reliable third-party manufacturers. There may be some differences in print quality but this is not noticeable.
Apart from the savings, using compatible or remanufactured toners and inks can help you save empty or used cartridges from being thrown into landfills.
