Cartridge World discusses the reasons for the move away from OEM cartridges.
The cost of OEM toners in comparison to alternatives is about 30 percent higher stated the article and this saving could make a good deal of difference to small businesses as according to Cartridge World “the average office worker” prints around 10,000 pages a year.
The article noted that “aftermarket components can often outperform” those made by the OEMs and that there are “new levels of quality inspection and manufacturing qualities” that can be checked such as Cartridge Worlds triple check quality inspection.
SMBs should always look for alternative cartridges that carry a risk-free satisfaction guarantee and free delivery fees from reputable online companies as shipping costs can cut into the savings being made by buying alternatives.
The article also noted that SMBs rarely have an office print policy and many of their printers are of different makes and models which makes ordering toner more challenging and that using a source like Cartridge World could not only save money but save time as well so that business priorities can be met without worrying about printer consumables.
Cartridge World finished by saying that ordering strategies should be looked at in order to save time and money.
