My inkjet or toner doesn’t work. What do I do now?

Here are some tips for you to try before contacting our customer service center. After you have tried all of the following, and your inkjet/toner cartridge still doesn’t work, please contact us via email at support@lainks.com and we will help you to exchange the product in question.

Low ink or out of ink error messages, your replacement cartridge is filled to maximum capacity. The ink level indicator window may prompt cartridge as empty or low, please ignore & close the message window.

Refilling Cartridges vs. Buying Remanufactured Ones

Owning a printer also means dealing with consumables like paper, inkjet ink & toner cartridges. The printer is one device that has survived the digital revolution and is still in great demand despite many people going green. There are several options when it comes to replacing the cartridge.

Some popular options when it comes to replacing a cartridge include buying OEM, compatible or remanufactured cartridges or choosing to refill them. Buying an OEM one can set you back a great deal. This article provides more information on how refilling differs from purchasing a remanufactured cartridge.

How Does Refilling Cartridges Work?

Refilling a cartridge is one of the options for all printer owners when they run out of ink. It is common for this to be an appealing option since it is more economical and faster. It simply involves refilling the cartridge with ink you can buy from a local store or online.

Listed here are some of the benefits of refilling a cartridge:

Buying a new cartridge means ditching the existing one, which, if not recycled, will end up in a landfill, as many other millions of cartridges do every year. This is not good for the environment. On the other hand, refilling a cartridge will keep the cartridge from the landfill for longer.
Buying a cartridge means setting aside a substantial amount, especially if you opt for the OEM ones. The remanufactured cartridges cost much less, but refilling is still the least expensive option.
Unlike a cartridge, a refill is usually never out of stock.

What are Remanufactured Cartridges?

A remanufactured cartridge is essentially a recycled OEM cartridge. This works because the remanufactured cartridge is recycled, cleaned, refilled, and then tested for quality. It is then made available for sale. Some of the main benefits of buying a remanufactured cartridge:

The cost of this type of cartridge is much lower compared to that of an OEM one.
Replacing this will not void your warranty.
The quality of the prints is high.
It is also environmentally friendly since it prevents it from going to the landfill and not purchasing one that has been manufactured using tons of natural resources.
They have a high page yield as well.

Refilling vs. Buying Remanufactured Cartridges - The Verdict

Both refilling and buying remanufactured cartridges are environmentally friendly options. However, a remanufactured one might be more efficient, especially since it is also a used cartridge that is cleaned and refilled professionally. It is also tested for quality. Besides this, when you purchase ink & toner cartridges from LAInks.com, you also get a replacement warranty. We stock remanufactured for a large number of brands like Brother, Epson, HP, and many more.

Summary

Refilling and buying remanufactured and compatible ink are the two more economical options when it comes to replacing your cartridge. Remanufactured cartridges cost a lot less, are environmentally friendly, and are tested for quality. Hence buying this type of toner cartridge from LAInks.com might be the better option.
