From: KenK on 22 Mar 2010 09:32 Anyone tried this? The ad says this utility will give you four times as much printing from an inkjet cartridge. Tiny holes in the fonts? What's the catch? They also sell carts. I've not checked out their web site; I'd prefer to hear from someone who has tried their product(s) first.

I really don't understand why people who need to print a lot of text put up with inkjet printers: Inkjet Printer: $30 for a black ink cartridge good for ~400 pages. Laser Printer: $60 for a toner cartridge good for ~2500 pages. Laser printers are also faster and their output is so crisp it almost hurts your eyes.

More money up front, but over the service life, much lower cost per page, and a lot less hassle. Lasers used to be a problem for low-volume users, because the cartridge and drum would get gummed up long before the toner ran out, but they are a lot better about that now. When I lived in the apartments for many years, I would see inkjets sitting on the dumpsters almost weekly, from people realizing they could buy a new one for only a couple bucks more than the cost of the cartridges. -- aem sends... |
