It would be great if a manufacturer could invent an inkjet printer that would have an unlimited supply of ink. Perhaps it could draw ink molecules from the air and convert light into color, creating an amazing, magical printing product that never required replacement ink. But alas, nobody's come forward with such an invention, and so, we are resigned to purchasing replacement ink cartridges to resupply our ordinary non-magical inket printers with printer ink.

Now unless you work for Canon or Xerox or one of the "big boys" in the printing industry, you're going to have to fork out some cash to restock your printer's ink supplies. That is, unless you decide to try out one of the discount ink cartridge suppliers.

Now in every industry we always here "use authorized replacements parts only". If this were the case, many automotive suppliers would be out of business, and every business would have a monopoly. But third party products always find their way into everyday products, and it's no different with printer ink. An inkjet cartridge from a discounter is filled with the same ink that the "authorized dealer" sells. It just happens to be a whole lot cheaper.

Now when it comes to some items, you might think twice about putting in third-party products, but with printer ink, a 70% savings on your ink costs might help you make that choice without too much thinking.
