Member You - Beat the Printer Scheme and Save a Ton of Money on Ink or Toner
If you are reading this, I'm sure you are where I was, 3 months ago. In a position where I just didn't have enough money to make ends meet, and working ridiculous hours, just to pay for the basic things, with no money left over, Sound familiar? Ok read on.Three months ago, I decided to look into the particular fascination of "make money with a home business". I saw lots of ads claiming you could make money with a home business doing as little as 2 hours work per day,
Is there a way around this?
Yes! If you do not have a chip on the cartridge then you can simply look on the internet and find a refill kit. This will work quite well. However, as a general rule, printing quality will decrease after approximately five refills.

Innuendoes, jokes, and basic personal hygiene aside, you don’t wear the same clothes two days in a row because it detracts from the professional image you want to project. So why do companies commit the business equivalent by letting calendar years go by before updating their Web sites?Probably for the same reason other tasks go undone: workload, lack of staff, funds, or plain old apathy. Sad to say, but more than a few businesses put up a site and forget about it.Before you buy another printer, make sure you read this article. The printing manufacturers actually don’t make any money on the printer itself. Instead, the real profits are made on the ink and toner. In general, the cheaper the printer, the more you will get gouged when it comes to replacing cartridges. But this is not always the case. The high end printer manufacturers are ready and willing to jump deep into your pocketbook. And if you let them, they will stay there for very long time.
The Microchip Scheme
The primary way in which the printing companies gouge your pocketbook is by placing a small microchip on the ink or toner cartridge. The cartridge will stop working when you print a fixed number of pages (usually around 5,000) even if you have plenty of supply remaining. Sometimes the chips are also programmed to stop working after a fixed period of time (e.g., six months) regardless of how many pages you have printed. The chips are usually patented so as to guarantee that you will always buy a new cartridge from the original manufacturer.
Just to illustrate how costly it can be to buy the wrong printer, here is a personal example. I fell for HP’s marketing scheme and bought a “low cost” HP 1500 Color Laser Jet two years ago for $499.00. I just checked with Staples.com and the cost of replacing all the toner cartridges and drum including tax (free shipping) is $597.33.

In today’s super-fast life, a car is no longer considered as a luxurious commodity, rather it’s considered as a necessity. A car helps you to keep pace with the super-fast life. However, not all of us have the required fund to pay for a car up front. Adding to it if you have bad credit history, you tend to think as if all the roads are closed for you. While in reality, a wide range of sources, such as, banks, credit unions, finance companies are there who can offer yo

When is a night that you don’t get into a trade a good trading night? Well the obvious answer is when the market goes against you, but since you did not get to your entry price you did not lose any money.Last night gave us an example of what I believe is an even better no trade night. We missed our entry by one pip plus the spread. Cable dropped to 1.8581 and our entry was 1.8580.Most of you ask how frustrating it is to miss a 160-pip profit night by one pip,

They say haste makes waste, and I believe that it’s true. I would much rather go with caution and feel safe and comfortable. One way to make sure that in your financial planning you are cautious, is to look at all of your options carefully.One of the options that you do have at your disposal if real estate is your thing is an interest only mortgage. Before signing up for something like this however it’s very wise to speak to a reputable financial adviser. This is m

The internet has the capacity, sometimes, to divorce not just our minds from our bodies and siphon us into cyberspace but also our common sense.When it comes to business models the internet seems to have managed to make us forget everything we knew in the Real World (RL for the acronym lovers) and slow down the length of time it takes us to re-learn it.How else can we explain the fact that the number one selling tool in the universe is so underused on the inter

If you have a microchip on your cartridge, there are a couple of options. First, with many cartridges you will be able to find a “chip reset” kit on the internet. Buying ink or toner and a chip reset kit is usually much cheaper than replacing the cartridge. You will be able to use the reset kit over and over again, so it will pay for itself. If you can’t find a reset kit for your cartridge, you can probably find a replacement chip. The microchips are usually glued on the side of the cartridge, so you can just pry off the old chip and glue on a new one.
The “Nuclear Option”
I saved the best for last! If this works, it is your best option, but you might have to do a little bit of internet research on your specific printer. What the printing companies don’t want you to know is that there is usually a way to configure your printer such that you are able to reset the chip memory. In some cases, you can completely disable the printer’s use of the chip. Getting back to my HP 1500 Color LaserJet, I was able to do this by holding down the big green button for 20 seconds when the power is turned on. On this printer, this causes what is known as a “hard reset” of all internal memory settings. Whereas I should have been forced to replace all of my toner and the drum, I have now been printing for months in normal operation without a glitch and with no error messages!
