Low Cost Inkjet Cartridges
Inkjet printers are expensive to own not because they are expensive but because the cost of the ink cartridges are usually very high and sometimes goes up to almost as high as 50 precent of the cost of the printer. The blunt fact is that most of the manufacturers of these printers make money not out of the printers but out of the ink cartridges. As a result of this high cost, there are many third party vendors who offer cartridges for as low as 75 percent the price of an original cartridge. Depending on the budget you may try these cartridges as they don’t cost much and if the quality is acceptable to you then you may be saving a lot of money in buying cartridges.

Continuous Ink Supply Systems
At the start of this year we had installed a CISS from SplashJet Print Technologies in Mumbai, India. The continuos ink supply system is VERY VERY cost effective compared to regular inkjet cartridges. The initial cost of setting up the system in your printer is under Rs. 3,000 or something close to that. Each of the four cartridges is connected to containers containing maximum 100 ml of ink. We use a Hp K850 inkjet printer with our CISS. It does not work with all inkjet printers. The quality of the print deteriorates somewhat but it is good enough for everyday office documents. Photos also don’t come out that bad.
The ink containers are refillable. Refillable bottles have inks of 200 ml each. Black Ink is available in 300 ml and 200ml. The four bottles of 200ml ink each comes under Rs.800/- for all four.
