There are printer models that hide behind cheap initial costs but actually have an expensive maintenance cost. If you don\u2019t want to waste money, you should be wary of common manufacturing cheats. How do you know if your printer is stealing from you? Here are signs you should watch out for:<\/p>\n
No. 1: The printer is too cheap. <\/strong><\/p>\n If you think the printer is too cheap, then that\u2019s probably because the printer manufacturer is planning to get the profit through another means. Usually, the ink or the toner is more expensive than other brands. If you think about it, it\u2019s better to have an expensive printer but cheap inks for hp printers<\/a> and toner.<\/p>\n No. 2: You buy low-capacity ink and cartridge. <\/strong><\/p>\n Cheap inks for hp printers usually have low capacity ink. However, research has shown that inks and toner cartridges with low capacity can cost you a lot more in the long term. Though you will not notice the cost when you don\u2019t print regularly, the statistics don\u2019t lie. If you\u2019re someone who prints a lot, then you should look for ink cartridges that yield 250 pages and more. Toner cartridges should yield 2000 pages and more.<\/p>\n No. 3: The printer requires coated paper. <\/strong><\/p>\n Why pick a printer that can\u2019t print on plain paper? This might be the worst decision you can make. Be sure to ask the manufacturer whether or not the printer accepts the plain paper.<\/p>\n No. 4: The paper tray has low capacity. <\/strong><\/p>\n Printer manufacturers usually reduce their manufacturing cost by using low-capacity paper trays. However, constantly replacing paper can bend or damage the tray. Thus, it is never wise to settle for less.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" There are printer models that hide behind cheap initial costs but actually have an expensive maintenance cost.
