Make the Most of Your HP Inkjet Cartridges
An inkjet cartridge, like the HP inkjet cartridge, is one of the parts of the inkjet printer that is replaceable. It is, in fact, replaced at regular intervals. That’s because the inkjet cartridge carries the ink – in some cases, it also has the print head – which helps produce the printed image by bonding with paper.
Going for HP inkjet cartridges means you are going for one of the most well-known brands of inkjet cartridges in the world. Here’s how you can make the most of your HP inkjet cartridges:
* First, know your inkjet cartridges. A genuine HP inkjet cartridges, also known as an OEM (original equipment manufacturer) cartridge, is from the same company that manufactured the printer. Compatible inkjet cartridges are brand new cartridges made by third-party manufacturers. Remanufactured inkjet cartridges, on the other hand, are recycled cartridges from third-party manufacturers.
* Genuine inkjet cartridges are significantly more expensive than compatible and remanufactured ink cartridges. So it isn’t wise to use them for printing in bulk. The cost of the inkjet cartridges will run up your expenses.
* HP inkjet cartridges produce vibrant images – the edges are tight, the colors are vivid and black is dark and bold – thanks to HP’s many proprietary technologies. You can enjoy these gorgeous print qualities by using your HP printer and inkjet cartridge for printing photos. Pictures of the family while on vacation, for example, will be come out as vivid and colorful as the holiday itself. And they would be yours to enjoy for a long time because HP ink is fade-resistant.
* For printing photos, a quick drying ink would work best for faster results and zero smudges. HP also has a number of photo papers which would be perfect for those family pictures.
* HP papers, by the way, are made using HP’s “ColorLok” technology which helps produce high-quality prints. The technology also makes the paper fast-drying and water-resistant.
* You can also use your HP printer and inkjet cartridges for your school projects and reports and business presentations– all of which will end up with better results if you use impressive materials printed using high quality printers and inkjet cartridges.
* You will be dealing with brand name prices. But that doesn’t mean you can’t find good deals. You can save some money by choosing value packs or multipacks or combo packs. Some retailers offer discounts if you buy a certain number of inkjet cartridges. You can also check out the combo packs which bundle the HP inkjet cartridge with the HP paper. Just remember to check the expiry date of each of the ink cartridges.
* Whether buying online or not, always ask about discounts, promos and rewards schemes. Since you would be buying inkjet cartridges regularly, it would be smart to find out if the store has rewards schemes and discounts on the next purchase. Online shops often have email promos and the like. HP currently has a “HP Photo Value Pack” which has ink, paper and may help you get up to 20% in savings.
