What is edible ink printing?</h3> <p>Edible ink printing is the process of using edible ink and a printer to produce digital images, such as photos, onto icing sheets or wafer paper. These can then be used to decorate confectionery items such as cakes, cookies, and chocolates. </p> <h3>2. What is edible ink?</h3> <p><a href="/s/edible-ink">Edible ink</a> is specially formulated water-based food-grade colouring supplied in inkjet cartridges for use in dedicated compatible inkjet printers. Edible ink cartridges are available in cyan, yellow, magenta, and black.</p> <h3>3. Which printers work with edible ink?</h3> <p>Canon and Epson inkjet printers are suitable for edible ink cartridges and printing edible ink images. It is essential that only <a href="/s/edible-ink">edible ink cartridges</a> are used, and the printer is dedicated to edible printing only. The printer must not have previously used regular ink cartridges as this may cause contamination.</p> <h3>4. What are edible icing sheets?</h3> <p><a href="/s/icing-sheets">Edible icing sheets</a> work just like paper when used in your printer to create images suitable to use when decorating cakes and other food items. The sheets consist of a thin layer of white icing on one side which the image is printed onto and have a plastic backing that allows them to feed through the printer easily. The printed image is then peeled off the plastic backing before being placed directly onto the cake, or other food items, with some frosting or buttercream which helps to stick it in place. Edible icing sheets are available in A4 with pre-cut options available for round cakes and individual cupcake toppers. Edible icing sheets are gluten-free and are suitable for vegetarians or vegans.</p> <h3>5. What is wafer paper?</h3> <p><a href="/s/edible-wafer-paper">Wafer paper</a> is edible paper made from potato starch, water, and oil. It can be used in the same way as paper, in a printer with edible inks, to produce digital images. Once printed the wafer paper decorations can be placed directly onto cakes, or other food items, using a little water to moisten slightly which helps them stick in place. Alternatively, use frosting or buttercream to attach the wafer paper decoration to the cake. </p> <h3>6. Are edible ink cartridges refillable?</h3> <p>Yes, you can refill most edible ink cartridges. Your printer will recognise when ink levels are low and alert you that the cartridges need to be refilled. Follow these basic steps to refill your edible ink cartridges:- 1. Make sure you wear sterile gloves. 2. Remove the edible ink cartridge from the printer and place the original cover/cradle over the bottom of the cartridge to prevent any leakage of ink. 3. Take out the coloured plug and use a sterile syringe and needle to fill the cartridge with the desired colour from the edible ink refill bottle. 4. Replace the coloured plug and clean off any excess ink. 5. Remove the cover/cradle from the bottom of the cartridge, put the cartridge back into the printer and restart. 6. If the printer does not recognise the refilled cartridge, turn the printer off for a few minutes to reset its memory and then restart. </p> <h3>7. How to clean and maintain a printer used for edible printing?</h3> <p>It is recommended to turn your edible ink printer OFF and back ON again each day to maintain print quality and prevent the print head from clogging. Edible ink cartridges contain water-based food colouring and sugar. This liquid can evaporate over time if the printer is not used frequently and may form sugar crystals which then clog the print head. Switching the printer OFF and then ON again ensures the printer will run a cleaning cycle so the edible ink flows freely and does not clog. Food safe cleaning cartridges can also be used to help clean your edible printer and keep it running smoothly.</p> <p>Cartridge World has an extensive <a href="/promo/edible-printing-range">range of edible printing supplies</a>.

It is important to consider the size of the printed images you want to produce before you select a printer. </p> <p>Icing sheets and wafer paper are available in standard A4 and A3 sizes, so they are compatible with regular and wide format printers. Whichever printer you decide to choose remember that it should only be used for edible printing – do not be tempted to put edible ink cartridges into a printer that has previously been used for regular ink as this may cause contamination and potentially be harmful. Find out some <a href="/blog/tips-for-edible-ink-printing">Tips for Setting up your Edible Printer</a>. </p> <h3>2. Edible Inks</h3> <p>Once you have a printer, the next item on your equipment list will be edible ink. Edible ink is specially formulated water-based food grade colouring. These inks are available in standard CMYK printing colours, cyan, magenta, yellow, and black which are supplied in inkjet cartridges and work in the same way as standard printer cartridges. Refill ink bottles are also available so you can easily top up your ink rather than buying replacement cartridges when ink levels run low.</p> <h3>3. Edible Icing Sheets and Wafer Paper</h3> <p>Selecting what you print your edible images onto really is down to personal preference and the type of finish you require. You can choose from icing sheets (also known as frosting sheets) or wafer paper (sometimes referred to as rice paper). Both edible icing sheets and wafer paper are gluten-free and suitable for vegans and vegetarians. </p> <p><b>Edible Icing Sheets: </b><br> Edible icing sheets consist of a thin layer of white icing on a plastic backing film making them easy to feed through your printer with the printed image being peeled off ready to use. The smooth, white surface ensures printed images are very clear with a high-quality finish – just make sure you are printing a high-resolution image. Edible icing sheets are available in both A4 and A3 sizes as full sheets with options for pre-cut circles in different sizes - ideal if you are looking to personalise cupcakes or cookies. Once printed you can place the icing design directly onto the cake or other food item. As the icing sheets are soft, they will mould to the applied surface very easily with just a fine spray of water and hey presto you will have a professional finish.</p> <p><b>Wafer Paper:</b> <br> Wafer paper is made from potato starch, water and oil and can be used in the same way as regular paper in your edible printer to produce printed designs. The benefit of wafer paper is that it is available in different thicknesses, just like paper and card, therefore, it is more versatile in that it can be used to print designs that will ‘stand up’ on cakes creating an impressive 3D effect. Wafer paper has a slightly textured look and feel to it in contrast to the smoothness of edible icing sheets – practice printing on both to see which finish you prefer. </p> <p>So, that’s a quick rundown of the equipment you need to start printing customised picture-perfect edible decorations.

Maybe your printer isn’t recognising the ink cartridges, the print quality on your image is poor, or there’s no ink coming out at all, and you are left with blank edible sheets coming out of your printer which we know is frustrating especially when you want to finish decorating your cake creations.</p> <p>Check out some of these troubleshooting tips which may help to solve those niggly problems.</p> <h3>Your printer does not recognise the edible ink cartridges</h3> <ul> <li>First of all, check that you have the correct cartridges for your printer – sounds simple, but mistakes happen! </li> <li>Make sure you remove the bottom cradle from the cartridge before inserting it into the printer. You should hear a ‘click’ which will indicate that the cartridge is correctly positioned.<br></li> <li>If you are using refillable edible ink cartridges, ensure both the cartridge cavity and the sponge are full of ink as this weight helps the printer to recognise the new cartridge.<br></li> <li>If there are still issues, try turning the printer off and restart after a couple of minutes. </li> </ul> <h3>There is no ink coming out, or a certain colour is not printing</h3> <ul> <li>Check that there is ink in the cartridge and refill or replace the empty cartridge if necessary.<br></li> <li>If using new cartridges check that the ‘Pull’ strip has been removed from the cartridges before inserting into the printer – this strip covers the hole where the ink flows from the cartridge.</li> <li>Sometimes an airlock can cause the ink to stop flowing. If this happens, remove the cartridge, turn it upside down and back again before replacing in the printer.<br></li> <li>If there are still issues and the ink does not flow you may need to pierce the vent hole on the top of the cartridge to release the airlock before placing back into the printer.</li> <li>Always carry out a nozzle check to test colours are printing as you wish.</li> </ul> <h3>The print quality is poor and there are streaks across the printed image</h3> <ul> <li>There can be numerous reasons as to why print quality can be poor such as clogged nozzles or printhead, empty ink cartridges, incorrect paper settings or print quality settings.<br></li> <li>Running a nozzle check will indicate clogged nozzles or printhead, especially if you can see broken or missing lines on your printed image. If this happens, run a print head clean and carry out some test prints to get the ink flowing correctly again.</li> <li>Check the paper/media settings on your printer and adjust if necessary to achieve the print finish and quality you are looking for. Remember that colours do not always print as they appear on the computer screen.</li> </ul> <h3>The printed image ‘runs off’ the edible paper or icing sheet</h3> <ul> <li>As edible paper and icing sheets come in standard A4 and A3 sizes you need to check that the size and shape of the image you wish to print will fit. Bear in mind that you may need to re-size images to fit onto sheets that have pre-cut circles, such as cupcake toppers.</li> <li>The pre-cut sheets have set dimensions so it may be easier to create a template so you can repeat the image and check this in print preview on your computer screen first.</li> <li>Practice printing on regular paper first to check size and alignment before using the edible paper or icing sheet.</li> <li>You may need to perform a print head alignment if you still experience print ‘run off’</li> </ul> <p>Remember if you need some help with your <a href="/promo/edible-printing-range">edible printing</a>, contact your <a href="/locate/stores">local Cartridge World team</a> for some expert advice. They may not be master bakers but they will certainly have you printing perfect edible images so you can have your cake and eat it too! </p> ";s:7:"attribs";a:0:{}s:8:"xml_base";s:0:"";s:17:"xml_base_explicit";b:0;s:8:"xml_lang";s:0:"";}}}}}i:3;a:6:{s:4:"data";s:47:" ";s:7:"attribs";a:0:{}s:8:"xml_base";s:0:"";s:17:"xml_base_explicit";b:0;s:8:"xml_lang";s:0:"";s:5:"child";a:1:{s:0:"";a:6:{s:5:"title";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:"data";s:30:"Tips For Edible Ink Printing ";s:7:"attribs";a:0:{}s:8:"xml_base";s:0:"";s:17:"xml_base_explicit";b:0;s:8:"xml_lang";s:0:"";}}s:8:"category";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:"data";s:12:"Edible Range";s:7:"attribs";a:0:{}s:8:"xml_base";s:0:"";s:17:"xml_base_explicit";b:0;s:8:"xml_lang";s:0:"";}}s:7:"pubDate";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:"data";s:31:"Tue, 26 Oct 2021 12:20:00 +1100";s:7:"attribs";a:0:{}s:8:"xml_base";s:0:"";s:17:"xml_base_explicit";b:0;s:8:"xml_lang";s:0:"";}}s:4:"link";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:"data";s:67:"https://www.cartridgeworld.com.au/blog/tips-for-edible-ink-printing";s:7:"attribs";a:0:{}s:8:"xml_base";s:0:"";s:17:"xml_base_explicit";b:0;s:8:"xml_lang";s:0:"";}}s:4:"guid";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:"data";s:67:"https://www.cartridgeworld.com.au/blog/tips-for-edible-ink-printing";s:7:"attribs";a:0:{}s:8:"xml_base";s:0:"";s:17:"xml_base_explicit";b:0;s:8:"xml_lang";s:0:"";}}s:11:"description";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:"data";s:3425:"<img alt="Tips For Edible Ink Printing " src="https://marketplacer.imgix.net/R8/jbwvGEzrdW55ru-H_wZx-CbFY.png?auto=format&fm=pjpg&fit=max&q=90&alt=Tips%20For%20Edible%20Ink%20Printing%20%20&w=1600&h=1000&s=8d76bfb1b725d42764c3ad76882e8e31" /><p>Once you’ve chosen a printer suitable for your edible printing needs, and have it set up ready to go, you may find some of these tips useful to help print perfect designs for your cakes.</p> <ol> <li><p>Select the image you want to print – this may be a photo or design you have downloaded or an image you have created using graphics software.</p></li> <li><p>Make sure you choose the edible printer model from the list of your installed printers so you print on the correct machine.</p></li> <li><p>In the ‘Printer Properties’ select ‘Media/Paper Type’ and choose ‘Photo Paper’ as this will ensure optimum quality for your printed images. You can also manually adjust the colour settings to vary the intensity and brightness of the printed image depending upon your personal preference. It’s worth practising on regular paper before using <a href="/s/edible-wafer-paper">edible paper</a> or <a href="/s/icing-sheets">icing sheets</a> so you are completely satisfied with the result. </p></li> <li><p>Edible paper and icing sheets are delicate therefore, they require gentle handling and careful storage. Keep the sheets flat and sealed in their original foil zip-lock packaging so they do not dry out or attract any moisture. Store at room temperature (between +15 degrees to +25 degrees) until you are ready to use them.</p></li> <li><p>For best results, feed icing sheets and edible paper manually into the printer from the top/rear tray. When using icing sheets, the clear plastic strip should be at the top, with the icing side facing to the front. </p></li> <li><p>Once printed, leave the edible paper or icing sheet on a flat surface for 20-30 minutes to allow the printed images to dry completely before use. Printed edible paper and icing sheets can be stored in their original packaging, away from direct sunlight, for up to 3 months after printing if you do not need to use them immediately. </p></li> <li><p>Remember to only use <a href="/s/edible-ink">edible ink</a> in your edible printer. </p></li> <li><p>It is important to clean and maintain your edible printer on a regular basis. We recommend the following steps:</p></li> </ol> <ul> <li>Turn the printer on and off once a day. This will run a cleaning cycle which will keep the edible ink flowing through the print head.</li> <li>Conduct a test print at least once a week with regular paper before using edible paper or icing sheets to check ink quality and to prevent clogging.</li> <li>Every two weeks, remove the ink cartridges and clean any excess ink before replacing them back in the printer. You can also use edible ink cleaning solution cartridges to help keep the print head clean and free from blockages.<br></li> <li>Clean the print head every month or sooner if the printer indicates a print head clean is required.<br></li> <li>Keep your printer covered when not in use to prevent dust or dirt contamination.</li> </ul> <p>Check out the <a href="/promo/edible-printing-range">new range of edible inks and icing sheets</a> available now at Cartridge World and start experimenting with your printing – we can’t wait to see your edible ink printing creations.</p> ";s:7:"attribs";a:0:{}s:8:"xml_base";s:0:"";s:17:"xml_base_explicit";b:0;s:8:"xml_lang";s:0:"";}}}}}i:4;a:6:{s:4:"data";s:47:" ";s:7:"attribs";a:0:{}s:8:"xml_base";s:0:"";s:17:"xml_base_explicit";b:0;s:8:"xml_lang";s:0:"";s:5:"child";a:1:{s:0:"";a:6:{s:5:"title";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:"data";s:50:"Cartridge World Welcomes New Owner To Gawler Store";s:7:"attribs";a:0:{}s:8:"xml_base";s:0:"";s:17:"xml_base_explicit";b:0;s:8:"xml_lang";s:0:"";}}s:8:"category";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:"data";s:11:"Latest News";s:7:"attribs";a:0:{}s:8:"xml_base";s:0:"";s:17:"xml_base_explicit";b:0;s:8:"xml_lang";s:0:"";}}s:7:"pubDate";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:"data";s:31:"Thu, 08 Jul 2021 11:55:44 +1000";s:7:"attribs";a:0:{}s:8:"xml_base";s:0:"";s:17:"xml_base_explicit";b:0;s:8:"xml_lang";s:0:"";}}s:4:"link";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:"data";s:89:"https://www.cartridgeworld.com.au/blog/cartridge-world-welcomes-new-owner-to-gawler-store";s:7:"attribs";a:0:{}s:8:"xml_base";s:0:"";s:17:"xml_base_explicit";b:0;s:8:"xml_lang";s:0:"";}}s:4:"guid";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:"data";s:89:"https://www.cartridgeworld.com.au/blog/cartridge-world-welcomes-new-owner-to-gawler-store";s:7:"attribs";a:0:{}s:8:"xml_base";s:0:"";s:17:"xml_base_explicit";b:0;s:8:"xml_lang";s:0:"";}}s:11:"description";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:"data";s:3538:"<img alt="Cartridge World Welcomes New Owner To Gawler Store" src="https://marketplacer.imgix.net/Dn/dxP7BlkH0mF7zet6p8D3EW1tc.png?auto=format&fm=pjpg&fit=max&q=90&alt=Cartridge%20World%20Welcomes%20New%20Owner%20To%20Gawler%20Store&w=1600&h=1000&s=4e38706c79494c940cbfbe9f8adac9f3" /><p>Cartridge World has welcomed a new franchisee, Dean Allan, to the Cartridge World Gawler store, which has relocated to 116 Murray Street, Gawler.</p> <p>Customers can enjoy 10% off storewide as part of the opening celebrations and are encouraged to drop in and say ‘Hi’ to Dean and his team whilst taking advantage of this special offer.</p> <p>The store is the tenth Cartridge World franchise to be opened in South Australia taking the total number of stores and agencies across Australia and New Zealand to over 160.

Most of these issues can be quickly and easily fixed following some basic checks to have your printer back up and running in no time. Here we explore some common problems which can occur: </p> <h3>Horizontal Lines Across the Page</h3> <p>So, you’ve printed your document only to discover there are horizontal lines running across the image, not the result you were hoping for. Thankfully, there are some easy fixes to help get your prints looking perfect again and eliminate those pesky lines: <br></p> <ol> <li><p>Run a nozzle check<br> If there are breaks in the lines which appear across the printed image when you run a nozzle check, try running a head cleaning cycle to clear any clogs in the print head as these may be causing the lines. <br></p></li> <li><p>Run a printhead alignment <br> If the lines are solid across the printed image, then run a printhead alignment to check the printhead is correctly installed. This ensures the paper feed is synchronised with the movement of the printhead, so the best print quality is achieved. The general advice is to run a printhead alignment every 6-12 months. <br></p></li> <li><p>Check the media typesetting <br> Make sure you have the correct media selected for your print job such as plain paper, photo paper, glossy paper, etc. These settings all determine how the printer performs and lines can appear if the wrong media is selected.</p></li> </ol> <h3>Dots On the Page</h3> <p>If you find dots or spots appear on your printed documents this is usually caused by paper dust or objects such as staples or paper clips sticking to the surface of the drum. Toner builds up around these areas which in turn creates the dots or spots which then appear on your print-out. You can clean the drum surface by printing 10-20 blank copies through the printer which should clear the dot issue. If the problem persists, speak to your local Cartridge World store who can advise on manually cleaning the drum unit in your printer. Occasionally, there may be a hole, scratch, or even a dent on the drum in which case the printer technician will be able to conduct an inspection and advise whether the unit needs to be replaced.</p> <h3>Why Is My Printer Clicking?</h3> <p>If your printer is making more noise than normal and you hear unusual clicking or grinding noises when printing, it’s time to investigate. The noises could be a sign that there is an obstruction such as the toner cartridge not being positioned correctly, or the paper tray may not be correctly aligned causing the paper rollers to ‘click’ as they try to feed the paper. In these cases, turn your printer off, check for obstructions, then turn on again allowing the printer to reset before trying another print job. You may find performing a firmware update and running the printer troubleshooter will identify any further issues whilst also recommending appropriate fixes.</p> <p>It’s always a good idea to have your printer regularly checked and maintained by a professional to make sure it remains in good working order.

They like to put us to the test every so often, typically when you’re up against it and just need them to function properly. If you’re having a bad printer day don’t stress, generally, the most common problems are minor and can be resolved with some easy fixes. Here we take a look at some of the issues we hear about when your printer is having an ‘off’ day.</p> <h3>1. My printer will not print</h3> <p>Firstly, check your printer for any visible error messages on the display which will indicate why there may be an issue with your <a href="/s/printers">printer</a>, and then follow the steps provided to resolve the problem. If there is no error message check that the printer cable is connected, or, if you have a wireless printer, check that Wi-Fi is enabled, and you are connected to the right network. If there has been a recent Windows or MAC update you may need to re-install the printer driver to enable printing. Finally, if your printer is able to copy then this points to the underlying issue being with your computer and not the printer.</p> <h3>2. Can I still print when the printer tells me it’s low on ink?</h3> <p>The simple answer to this question is, “Yes, you can continue to print.” The ink level warnings and indicators are just that, a reminder which gives you the time to order or buy replacements. Your <a href="/s/printers">printer</a> will still function, and low ink levels should not impact print quality. As the ink levels decrease the printer may utilise the backup mode to print in greyscale (i.e., no colour). It’s really a case of getting to know your printer and checking the print quality as this will be the true sign that you need to replace the ink cartridge. </p> <h3>3. I can’t print from my mobile device</h3> <p>You should be able to print from a phone or other mobile device even if you do not have a Wi-Fi printer if you install appropriate Apps on your device and you set up a Wi-Fi network. Check out Cloud printing services such as Cortado ThinPrint and Google Cloud Printer which work across all platforms and device types when using a non-Wi-Fi printer. </p> <h3>4. Why is my printer slow over Wi-Fi?</h3> <p>Whilst they are convenient, wireless printers can often be slow due to network connectivity and router performance. Try to position your printer as close to the router as possible to increase Wi-Fi performance. The router should support 802.11n and offer the 5GHz bandwidth in addition to 2.4GHz. Check that the printer firmware is updated and use a wireless booster or a repeater to help improve reception and therefore speed up your printing. </p> <h3>5. Speak to a professional and say ‘Goodbye’ to those bad printer days for good</h3> <p>If your printer problems persist, whether this is a result of connection issues, print quality, or simply no printing appears don’t stress. Contact the experts at your <a href="/locate/stores">local Cartridge World store</a>. They will be happy to run through printer set up with you, or provide advice and solutions that will get you back up and printing before you can say stress-free printing solutions! </p> ";s:7:"attribs";a:0:{}s:8:"xml_base";s:0:"";s:17:"xml_base_explicit";b:0;s:8:"xml_lang";s:0:"";}}}}}i:7;a:6:{s:4:"data";s:47:" ";s:7:"attribs";a:0:{}s:8:"xml_base";s:0:"";s:17:"xml_base_explicit";b:0;s:8:"xml_lang";s:0:"";s:5:"child";a:1:{s:0:"";a:6:{s:5:"title";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:"data";s:37:"Quick Fixes for Poor Quality Prints ";s:7:"attribs";a:0:{}s:8:"xml_base";s:0:"";s:17:"xml_base_explicit";b:0;s:8:"xml_lang";s:0:"";}}s:8:"category";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:"data";s:16:"Printer Concerns";s:7:"attribs";a:0:{}s:8:"xml_base";s:0:"";s:17:"xml_base_explicit";b:0;s:8:"xml_lang";s:0:"";}}s:7:"pubDate";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:"data";s:31:"Tue, 16 Mar 2021 15:45:29 +1100";s:7:"attribs";a:0:{}s:8:"xml_base";s:0:"";s:17:"xml_base_explicit";b:0;s:8:"xml_lang";s:0:"";}}s:4:"link";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:"data";s:74:"https://www.cartridgeworld.com.au/blog/quick-fixes-for-poor-quality-prints";s:7:"attribs";a:0:{}s:8:"xml_base";s:0:"";s:17:"xml_base_explicit";b:0;s:8:"xml_lang";s:0:"";}}s:4:"guid";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:"data";s:74:"https://www.cartridgeworld.com.au/blog/quick-fixes-for-poor-quality-prints";s:7:"attribs";a:0:{}s:8:"xml_base";s:0:"";s:17:"xml_base_explicit";b:0;s:8:"xml_lang";s:0:"";}}s:11:"description";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:"data";s:3357:"<img alt="Quick Fixes for Poor Quality Prints " src="https://marketplacer.imgix.net/0D/llG8JX3IvrzzImt-zyRfDsKSs.png?auto=format&fm=pjpg&fit=max&q=90&alt=Quick%20Fixes%20for%20Poor%20Quality%20%20Prints%20&w=1600&h=1000&s=d7f009bebafa9d92e5969e0dd964c504" /><p>We’ve all been there – you’ve hit the print button, gone to make a coffee whilst the printer works its magic, only to return a couple of minutes later to find your document looking less than impressive. Poor print quality is an all-too-common problem and one which can leave us frustrated at the best of times. Thankfully, here at Cartridge World, our experts have some quick and easy tips to help smooth the way to producing the perfect print.</p> <h3>1. Clean your printer</h3> <p>If there are white lines running across the page this may be a sign that the printer heads, nozzles, or other components are dirty, or have become clogged. Laser printers need regular cleaning to prevent the build-up of dust and toner particles. It’s always best to refer to the printer user guide for steps on how to clean your printer. Alternatively, switch the printer off, remove components such as the toner and drum, grab a clean paintbrush, or use a vacuum cleaner with a brush attachment, to gently remove any dirt and dust. Inkjet printers have a self-cleaning function so make sure you check the user guide on how to set this function up for quick and easy maintenance.</p> <h3>2. Choose the right paper</h3> <p>Cheap paper can often be a key factor in producing poor-quality prints. The rough texture produces a high dust content which over time can affect print performance. Choosing a good quality paper will help reduce those print imperfections. For inkjet printers make sure you have the right paper selected in your printer software, especially for photo printing – it will make all the difference.</p> <h3>3. Adjust your print settings</h3> <p>If you notice that images, or text on your documents, are blurry and ink has bled, this can be a sign of over saturation which can be resolved by increasing the print speed. The opposite can be faded pages – a sign that the print speed needs to be reduced to improve ink saturation. Ensure your printer is set up for high-resolution printing to improve the quality of your print. Remember, it’s nearly impossible to get the exact same colour displayed on your screen to print out. You adjust print speed, colour resolution, and quality settings in the Advanced Properties Dialog Box on your computer. Always print a test page to check for quality before printing your final document.</p> <h3>4. Keep Cool</h3> <p>Poor quality printing can occur when a printer is kept in a hot, humid area. Try to keep your printer in a cool environment, away from other devices that may produce excessive heat, and from windows where heat and humidity can be high. For best performance refer to the user guide for recommended operating temperature conditions.</p> <h3>5. Talk to an expert</h3> <p>Following these quick tips will hopefully help to keep you and your printing quality in tip-top condition. However, if you still experience print quality issues speak to your <a href="/locate/stores">local Cartridge World store</a> for further advice and help in identifying the problem. We’re happy to help you achieve the perfect print.</p> ";s:7:"attribs";a:0:{}s:8:"xml_base";s:0:"";s:17:"xml_base_explicit";b:0;s:8:"xml_lang";s:0:"";}}}}}i:8;a:6:{s:4:"data";s:47:" ";s:7:"attribs";a:0:{}s:8:"xml_base";s:0:"";s:17:"xml_base_explicit";b:0;s:8:"xml_lang";s:0:"";s:5:"child";a:1:{s:0:"";a:6:{s:5:"title";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:"data";s:26:"Keeping Your Printer Clean";s:7:"attribs";a:0:{}s:8:"xml_base";s:0:"";s:17:"xml_base_explicit";b:0;s:8:"xml_lang";s:0:"";}}s:8:"category";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:"data";s:8:"How To's";s:7:"attribs";a:0:{}s:8:"xml_base";s:0:"";s:17:"xml_base_explicit";b:0;s:8:"xml_lang";s:0:"";}}s:7:"pubDate";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:"data";s:31:"Tue, 16 Mar 2021 16:00:36 +1100";s:7:"attribs";a:0:{}s:8:"xml_base";s:0:"";s:17:"xml_base_explicit";b:0;s:8:"xml_lang";s:0:"";}}s:4:"link";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:"data";s:65:"https://www.cartridgeworld.com.au/blog/keeping-your-printer-clean";s:7:"attribs";a:0:{}s:8:"xml_base";s:0:"";s:17:"xml_base_explicit";b:0;s:8:"xml_lang";s:0:"";}}s:4:"guid";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:"data";s:65:"https://www.cartridgeworld.com.au/blog/keeping-your-printer-clean";s:7:"attribs";a:0:{}s:8:"xml_base";s:0:"";s:17:"xml_base_explicit";b:0;s:8:"xml_lang";s:0:"";}}s:11:"description";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:"data";s:2506:"<img alt="Keeping Your Printer Clean" src="https://marketplacer.imgix.net/lu/xxVDWupyTrKTMbdFh4UiKP68Q.png?auto=format&fm=pjpg&fit=max&q=90&alt=Keeping%20Your%20Printer%20Clean&w=1600&h=1000&s=3f4b2875402cb4cd1cbc84f1d01eb67d" /><p>The printer is a valuable piece of equipment in any home or work office environment which needs to be shown a little love every now and again to keep it in good working order. Just as you take a car for a service and regular maintenance, the same can be said for your printer.</p> <p>Printer maintenance is relatively straightforward and easy to undertake. However, care does need to be taken and we would always recommend seeking professional advice – just as you would with your car. Generally, all that is required is a regular clean to remove any build-up of dirt or dust, as this can affect the quality of your printing over time and cause damage to printer parts. </p> <h3>Cleaning an inkjet printer</h3> <p><a href="/s/inkjet-printers">Inkjet printers</a> need to have their printheads cleaned to prevent clogging. Most printers will run self-cleaning programs but it’s also a good idea to do a few extra cleans by selecting the 'Clean Printhead' option 2 or 3 times on the printer display panel. The printhead can also be removed and carefully wiped clean using a soft, lint-free cloth. Always switch the printer off and allow it to cool – remember the internal components of a printer reach extremely high temperatures. </p> <h3>Cleaning a laser printer</h3> <p><a href="/s/laser-printers">Laser printers</a> collect toner powder residue inside their workings. To prevent residue build-up, you can use a small brush to gently remove any visible dirt or dust. Take care not to touch any parts directly with your fingers. Following these basic steps will help to keep your printer working efficiently and maintain its performance over time. Of course, to make everything even easier and stress-free check with the team at your local Cartridge World store about their servicing and maintenance options – go on, show your printer some love! </p> <p>Always refer to your printer user guide for the manufacturers cleaning instructions in the first instance. There are many intricate and delicate parts that can easily be damaged so always get an expert opinion if you are not sure. Speak to your <a href="/locate/stores">local Cartridge World store</a> for advice and guidance on cleaning and any specific maintenance required for your printer.</p> ";s:7:"attribs";a:0:{}s:8:"xml_base";s:0:"";s:17:"xml_base_explicit";b:0;s:8:"xml_lang";s:0:"";}}}}}i:9;a:6:{s:4:"data";s:47:" ";s:7:"attribs";a:0:{}s:8:"xml_base";s:0:"";s:17:"xml_base_explicit";b:0;s:8:"xml_lang";s:0:"";s:5:"child";a:1:{s:0:"";a:6:{s:5:"title";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:"data";s:43:"Quick and Easy Steps to Set Up Your Printer";s:7:"attribs";a:0:{}s:8:"xml_base";s:0:"";s:17:"xml_base_explicit";b:0;s:8:"xml_lang";s:0:"";}}s:8:"category";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:"data";s:8:"How To's";s:7:"attribs";a:0:{}s:8:"xml_base";s:0:"";s:17:"xml_base_explicit";b:0;s:8:"xml_lang";s:0:"";}}s:7:"pubDate";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:"data";s:31:"Tue, 16 Mar 2021 16:53:01 +1100";s:7:"attribs";a:0:{}s:8:"xml_base";s:0:"";s:17:"xml_base_explicit";b:0;s:8:"xml_lang";s:0:"";}}s:4:"link";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:"data";s:82:"https://www.cartridgeworld.com.au/blog/quick-and-easy-steps-to-set-up-your-printer";s:7:"attribs";a:0:{}s:8:"xml_base";s:0:"";s:17:"xml_base_explicit";b:0;s:8:"xml_lang";s:0:"";}}s:4:"guid";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:"data";s:82:"https://www.cartridgeworld.com.au/blog/quick-and-easy-steps-to-set-up-your-printer";s:7:"attribs";a:0:{}s:8:"xml_base";s:0:"";s:17:"xml_base_explicit";b:0;s:8:"xml_lang";s:0:"";}}s:11:"description";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:"data";s:3240:"<img alt="Quick and Easy Steps to Set Up Your Printer" src="https://marketplacer.imgix.net/aK/euXkcgj8cWkl_eiJYgL1EiZnI.png?auto=format&fm=pjpg&fit=max&q=90&alt=Quick%20and%20Easy%20Steps%20to%20Set%20Up%20Your%20Printer&w=1600&h=1000&s=468ba029d7cb25b641e53c4fc1136708" /><p>Congratulations on choosing and purchasing your new printer! Whether you’ve invested in a fleet of printers for your workspace, or upgraded your home office printer, you may now be looking for some support when it comes to set up and installation.</p> <p>For the most part, set up and installation of your printer is a quick and painless process, carried out by simply following the basic steps found in your printer user guide which will have you printing in no time. If you do not have the user guide to hand, search your printer model on the internet and download an online version. </p> <h3>Generally, you can follow the steps outlined below to set up your printer:</h3> <ol> <li>Install printer ink cartridges as directed and make sure there is paper in the printer tray.</li> <li>Run the printer setup application on your PC or laptop using the installation software provided with your printer, or download the software from the manufacturers website if directed to do so.</li> <li>Connect the printer to your PC or laptop using a USB cable and switch it on. If you are using a wireless printer you will need to follow these steps <br> (i) Click on the printer display screen menu and select 'Open Network Settings' <br> (ii) Select 'Wi-fi Set Up Wizard' for the printer to search available networks<br> (iii) Select your Wi-fi network and enter your password to connect the printer to your network.<br> </li> <li>Locate the Printer settings on your computer and select 'Add a printer.' </li> <li>Select the new printer from the list and click 'Print' to print a test page. </li> </ol> <p>If you find yourself having difficulties check out these common issues and troubleshooting options.</p> <h3>Nothing prints out</h3> <p>Check that everything is connected properly, the correct printer drivers are installed, and there is no paper stuck in the printer. Cancel the print job and try again or turn the printer on and off to reset it. You may also have to turn your router on and off to reset this if you are using a wireless printer.</p> <h3>Poor image quality</h3> <p>Ensure the correct printer settings are selected in the printer options and match the paper type you are using to those provided in the printer settings. Check ink and toner levels are adequate and replace any cartridges if levels are low or indicator lights are showing. Run the self-clean function if your printer has this option to clean the print head – this helps if there are lines or blotches on your printout.</p> <h3>Speak to a professional</h3> <p>If your printer problems persist, whether this is a result of connection issues, print quality, or simply no printing appears do not panic.

Don’t worry, it’s simple and we will take you through the process step by step. </p> <p><a href="/promo/cartridge-recycling-quiz">Take the Cartridge Recycling Quiz to get surprised by some eye-opening facts.</a></p> <h3>Step 1: Collection - Where can I take my empty printer and toner cartridges to be recycled?</h3> <p>The first step is to take your empty printer and toner cartridges to a designated <a href="/locate/stores">cartridge recycling collection point</a>. Cartridge World has collection boxes available at each of its <a href="/locate/stores">130+ locations across Australia</a> as part of the Cartridges 4 Planet Ark Program, an innovative and environmentally friendly way to <a href="/blog/everything-you-need-to-know-about-recycling-printer-cartridges">recycle used printer cartridges</a>. Simply drop any empty cartridges into your nearest store and they will be packaged ready for collection.</p> <h3>Step 2: Sorting & Processing - What happens to cartridges during the recycling process?</h3> <p>Once collected, the empty printer and toner cartridges are taken to a specialist recycling facility operated by Close the Loop where they are sorted and processed. Cartridges are safely broken down into various parts by ‘Green Machines’. During this process - steel, aluminium, clean and contaminated plastic, residual toner, and ink are all separated. </p> <h3>Step 3: Re-purpose - How are the recycled cartridge parts used?</h3> <p>Once separated, each element of the used cartridge can be re-purposed in a variety of ways to produce new products: - </p> <h4>Metal</h4> <p>Steel components are re-used to manufacture appliances such as fridges and washing machines, whilst aluminium is used to make cans for food and drinks. </p> <h4>Plastics</h4> <p>Clean plastics are turned into items such as pens. Any contaminated plastics and remaining parts are crushed and processed into ‘eWood’ a synthetic timber material that can be used to make fences and furniture items. </p> <h4>Ink</h4> <p>Any residual ink is used to fill pens or to create recycled artist ink</p> <h4>Toner</h4> <p>Residual toner is mixed with asphalt, recycled glass, and plastic to produce high-quality road and paving surfaces. </p> <p>When you think about it you are probably already utilising items in your day-to-day life which started life out as a <a href="/s/-/cartridge-world">printer cartridge</a> – pretty amazing really.</p> <p>So, next time you go to throw your empty printer cartridges away please remember to dispose of them responsibly to ensure they are <a href="/promo/cartridge-world-refill">recycled and reused</a>. Following these simple steps and encouraging others to do the same will go a long way to reduce the 25 million printer cartridges that end up in landfill across Australia each year.</p> <p><a href="/promo/cartridge-recycling-quiz">Take the Cartridge Recycling Quiz to get surprised by some eye-opening facts.</a></p> <p></p><div class="Layout Layout--unwrap"> <div class="Layout-blogHeroInner"> <div class="Blog-media Blog-media--image"> <img alt="cw1082-web-banner-png" class="Blog-image" src="https://marketplacer.imgix.net/VF/NSsiDluIGL3MyWrhRQcicxYcw.png?auto=format&fm=png&fit=max&lossless=true&w=1000&h=1000&s=4b77b4f3b7a84d9bbf51191eb003f2b3"> </div> </div> </div> <p></p> ";s:7:"attribs";a:0:{}s:8:"xml_base";s:0:"";s:17:"xml_base_explicit";b:0;s:8:"xml_lang";s:0:"";}}}}}i:12;a:6:{s:4:"data";s:47:" ";s:7:"attribs";a:0:{}s:8:"xml_base";s:0:"";s:17:"xml_base_explicit";b:0;s:8:"xml_lang";s:0:"";s:5:"child";a:1:{s:0:"";a:6:{s:5:"title";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:"data";s:62:"Everything You Need To Know About Recycling Printer Cartridges";s:7:"attribs";a:0:{}s:8:"xml_base";s:0:"";s:17:"xml_base_explicit";b:0;s:8:"xml_lang";s:0:"";}}s:8:"category";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:"data";s:11:"Environment";s:7:"attribs";a:0:{}s:8:"xml_base";s:0:"";s:17:"xml_base_explicit";b:0;s:8:"xml_lang";s:0:"";}}s:7:"pubDate";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:"data";s:31:"Mon, 12 Oct 2020 14:59:54 +1100";s:7:"attribs";a:0:{}s:8:"xml_base";s:0:"";s:17:"xml_base_explicit";b:0;s:8:"xml_lang";s:0:"";}}s:4:"link";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:"data";s:101:"https://www.cartridgeworld.com.au/blog/everything-you-need-to-know-about-recycling-printer-cartridges";s:7:"attribs";a:0:{}s:8:"xml_base";s:0:"";s:17:"xml_base_explicit";b:0;s:8:"xml_lang";s:0:"";}}s:4:"guid";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:"data";s:101:"https://www.cartridgeworld.com.au/blog/everything-you-need-to-know-about-recycling-printer-cartridges";s:7:"attribs";a:0:{}s:8:"xml_base";s:0:"";s:17:"xml_base_explicit";b:0;s:8:"xml_lang";s:0:"";}}s:11:"description";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:"data";s:5118:"<img alt="Everything You Need To Know About Recycling Printer Cartridges" src="https://marketplacer.imgix.net/hy/VyXvmhcX_W0fnP57M-Uhk0qp8.png?auto=format&fm=pjpg&fit=max&q=90&alt=Everything%20You%20Need%20To%20Know%20About%20Recycling%20Printer%20Cartridges&w=1600&h=1000&s=ee17b9aec248d2dad6b0551b48cb281e" /><p>As we embark on the 25th National Recycling Week (Monday 9 to Sunday 15 November), now is a great time to reflect on how we can improve our recycling habits. Whether this be at home or at work, we can encourage those around us to do just the same to help create a sustainable future and a cleaner planet. Whilst most of us are familiar with recycling paper, glass, and plastic, how many of us are aware that printer cartridges can be recycled? Here at Cartridge World, we have been championing the recycling cause for more than 20 years and working to keep printer cartridges out of landfill. Read on to find out how and why you should join the cartridge recycling revolution.</p> <p><a href="/promo/cartridge-recycling-quiz">Take the Cartridge Recycling Quiz to get surprised by some eye-opening facts.</a></p> <h3>Why should I recycle cartridges?</h3> <p>Every minute, 34 printer cartridges are sent to landfill sites around Australia, which adds up to approximately 18 million per year. By choosing to recycle your printer cartridges you are helping to reduce air and water pollution associated with landfill and incineration. You will also be conserving natural resources used to create new cartridges which in turn can help save the energy used to manufacture new cartridges, thus reducing your carbon footprint. </p> <p>Rather than creating millions of tonnes of non-biodegradable waste sitting idle in landfill for 500-1000 years, each component of a printer cartridge can be re-purposed into new products so there really is no excuse for wasting such a valuable resource. The benefits are not solely environmental either. Buying remanufactured or refilling printer cartridges can bring significant cost savings to you as an individual or as a business.</p> <h3>What should I do with empty printer cartridges?</h3> <p>Did you know that the majority of printer cartridges can be refilled 5-7 times before they reach the end of their life span? So, even before you look to recycling, you can be doing your bit for the environment by opting to <a href="/promo/cartridge-world-refill">refill your printer cartridges</a> rather than throwing them away once they are empty. You can get expert advice from your <a href="/locate/stores">local Cartridge Store</a> on the options available based on the type of printer cartridge you use. We are always happy to assist.</p> <h3>What happens to a cartridge when it gets recycled?</h3> <p>Cartridges are broken down into various parts - steel, aluminium, clean and contaminated plastic, residual toner, and ink during the recycling process. Steel components are re-used to manufacture appliances such as fridges and washing machines, whilst aluminium is used to make cans for food and drinks. </p> <p>Clean plastics are turned into items such as pens which is where residual ink can also be re-purposed. Residual toner is mixed with asphalt, recycled glass, and plastic to produce high-quality road and paving surfaces. </p> <p>Any contaminated plastic and remaining parts are crushed and processed into ‘eWood’ a synthetic timber material that can be used to make fences and furniture items. You are probably already utilising items in your day to day life which started life out as a printer cartridge – pretty amazing really when you think about it.</p> <p><a href="/promo/cartridge-recycling-quiz">Take the Cartridge Recycling Quiz to get surprised by some eye-opening facts.</a></p> <h3>Where can I recycle cartridges?</h3> <p>Cartridge World has partnered with Planet Ark, Australia’s most trusted environmental organisation and Close the Loop, an international company with headquarters in Australia, recognised as the global leader in imaging consumables takeback programs. </p> <p>Through the ‘Cartridges 4 Planet Ark’ program, used printer cartridges can be taken to any of the 130+ Cartridge World locations across the country where they will be made ready for collection, and taken to specialised recycling plants for dismantling and re-use - it really is as simple as that. </p> <p>Under the new partnership, Cartridge World will take full responsibility for the product stewardship of their printer cartridges by paying for the recycling of all <a href="/s/-/cartridge-world">Cartridge World branded cartridges</a>. This commitment demonstrates how Cartridge World is leading the way to promote environmental sustainability whilst educating customers on the importance of cartridge recycling.</p> <h3>Conclusion</h3> <p>There is no doubt that as individuals we need to take responsibility for the impact we have upon the environment. With programs in place to promote the recycling of printer cartridges and consumables, supported by the key industry players making it easy, there is no better time than now to try it out.</p> ";s:7:"attribs";a:0:{}s:8:"xml_base";s:0:"";s:17:"xml_base_explicit";b:0;s:8:"xml_lang";s:0:"";}}}}}i:13;a:6:{s:4:"data";s:47:" ";s:7:"attribs";a:0:{}s:8:"xml_base";s:0:"";s:17:"xml_base_explicit";b:0;s:8:"xml_lang";s:0:"";s:5:"child";a:1:{s:0:"";a:6:{s:5:"title";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:"data";s:70:"Cartridge World announces new partnership with Cartridges 4 Planet Ark";s:7:"attribs";a:0:{}s:8:"xml_base";s:0:"";s:17:"xml_base_explicit";b:0;s:8:"xml_lang";s:0:"";}}s:8:"category";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:"data";s:11:"Environment";s:7:"attribs";a:0:{}s:8:"xml_base";s:0:"";s:17:"xml_base_explicit";b:0;s:8:"xml_lang";s:0:"";}}s:7:"pubDate";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:"data";s:31:"Thu, 08 Oct 2020 14:05:02 +1100";s:7:"attribs";a:0:{}s:8:"xml_base";s:0:"";s:17:"xml_base_explicit";b:0;s:8:"xml_lang";s:0:"";}}s:4:"link";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:"data";s:109:"https://www.cartridgeworld.com.au/blog/cartridge-world-announces-new-partnership-with-cartridges-4-planet-ark";s:7:"attribs";a:0:{}s:8:"xml_base";s:0:"";s:17:"xml_base_explicit";b:0;s:8:"xml_lang";s:0:"";}}s:4:"guid";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:"data";s:109:"https://www.cartridgeworld.com.au/blog/cartridge-world-announces-new-partnership-with-cartridges-4-planet-ark";s:7:"attribs";a:0:{}s:8:"xml_base";s:0:"";s:17:"xml_base_explicit";b:0;s:8:"xml_lang";s:0:"";}}s:11:"description";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:"data";s:5367:"<img alt="Cartridge World announces new partnership with Cartridges 4 Planet Ark" src="https://marketplacer.imgix.net/s_/aI4TzAT8ZiVpg7HZVGaDTNYZk.png?auto=format&fm=pjpg&fit=max&q=90&alt=Cartridge%20World%20announces%20new%20partnership%20with%20Cartridges%204%20Planet%20Ark&w=1600&h=1000&s=3fdf7e3180c9a9a29370c3913f5eccfc" /><p><a href="/promo/cartridge-recycling-program-cartridge-world">Cartridge World has demonstrated its commitment to environmental sustainability</a> with the announcement of a new partnership with Planet Ark’s Cartridges 4 Planet Ark program. </p> <p>Cartridge World have been working with Planet Ark to keep cartridges out of landfill by installing Cartridges 4 Planet Ark recycling boxes across their <a href="/locate/stores">Australian stores</a>.

Everything was fine the day before. I switched off the computer and the printer. Then the next time I came to print… nothing!" This comment from one of our customers is something we've been encountering a lot recently. </p> <p>If you are having this issue, the issue could lie with updates to Windows 10. The Windows 10 upgrade either corrupts the Printer Driver or installs a “new” printer copy on your computer, all without telling you.</p> <h3>Step 1: Testing your printer</h3> <p>If your printer has suddenly stopped printing after a software update, you need to test the printer and check if the issue lies with the computer or with the printer.</p> <p>You can test this easily by attempting to print a copy page. If your printer can do this then your printer is not broken! If your printer is not a copier, you can try to print out a report from the control panel, or connect it to another device, or otherwise try to use it without your computer. If it won’t copy or print a report then you know that the issue is the printer and not the software update.</p> <h3>Step 2: Fixing a communication problem</h3> <p>How to fix this communication problem? Well, find the disk the printer came with and re-install it. That will usually work a charm. If you've lost your disk, go to the manufacturer's web site and download new drivers (usually found under Support, Downloads).</p> <h3>Step 3: Talk to the pros</h3> <p>Done that, and still non-functioning? Your next step is to contact the manufacturer directly. It may take a while, but they should be able to get to the bottom of the problem fairly soon.</p> <p>Just remember, when you see a Windows 10 update warning, it may cause some pain for your printer connection.</p> <p>If you are having printer issues, <a href="/locate/stores">visit the team at your local Cartridge World store</a>. We are trusted local experts, and can get you printing again! <br></p> <p></p><a href="/blog/best-home-office-printers"><img src="https://marketplacer.imgix.net/QV/QcaInzfrXGQDWaQjGZng5VYYQ.png?auto=format&fm=png&fit=max&lossless=true&w=1000&h=1000&s=4c31c2816df334c35cc59bcee3462433" alt="Best Home Office Printers"></a><br> <br><p></p> ";s:7:"attribs";a:0:{}s:8:"xml_base";s:0:"";s:17:"xml_base_explicit";b:0;s:8:"xml_lang";s:0:"";}}}}}i:15;a:6:{s:4:"data";s:47:" ";s:7:"attribs";a:0:{}s:8:"xml_base";s:0:"";s:17:"xml_base_explicit";b:0;s:8:"xml_lang";s:0:"";s:5:"child";a:1:{s:0:"";a:6:{s:5:"title";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:"data";s:34:"Your Checklist To Prepare For EOFY";s:7:"attribs";a:0:{}s:8:"xml_base";s:0:"";s:17:"xml_base_explicit";b:0;s:8:"xml_lang";s:0:"";}}s:8:"category";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:"data";s:11:"Cost Saving";s:7:"attribs";a:0:{}s:8:"xml_base";s:0:"";s:17:"xml_base_explicit";b:0;s:8:"xml_lang";s:0:"";}}s:7:"pubDate";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:"data";s:31:"Fri, 29 May 2020 13:06:31 +1000";s:7:"attribs";a:0:{}s:8:"xml_base";s:0:"";s:17:"xml_base_explicit";b:0;s:8:"xml_lang";s:0:"";}}s:4:"link";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:"data";s:73:"https://www.cartridgeworld.com.au/blog/your-checklist-to-prepare-for-eofy";s:7:"attribs";a:0:{}s:8:"xml_base";s:0:"";s:17:"xml_base_explicit";b:0;s:8:"xml_lang";s:0:"";}}s:4:"guid";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:"data";s:73:"https://www.cartridgeworld.com.au/blog/your-checklist-to-prepare-for-eofy";s:7:"attribs";a:0:{}s:8:"xml_base";s:0:"";s:17:"xml_base_explicit";b:0;s:8:"xml_lang";s:0:"";}}s:11:"description";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:"data";s:5111:"<img alt="Your Checklist To Prepare For EOFY" src="https://marketplacer.imgix.net/vY/5hb1FwyyxuBYZ14dT12t4zmNM.png?auto=format&fm=pjpg&fit=max&q=90&alt=Your%20Checklist%20To%20Prepare%20For%20EOFY&w=1600&h=1000&s=6275c4508de7fa2ed605ffc837352749" /><h2>Preparing for EOFY 2020</h2> <p>Being prepared for EOFY is very important for ensuring you make the best of your tax return. Here is a small checklist for small businesses & sole traders to prepare them for EOFY deadlines. <br></p> <h3>Find out where you can make tax deductions</h3> <p>Small businesses can claim a tax deduction on most costs incurred in running your business, such as: <br> • <a href="/s/-/cartridge-world">Home Office Expenses</a> <br> • <a href="/s/printers">Office Equipment</a>, Software & <a href="/s/paper">Supplies</a> <br> • Mobile Phone Expenses <br> • Motor Vehicle Expenses <br> • Business Travel expenses <br> • Machinery, tools or computer expenses <br> • Rental Property Expenses <br> • Accounting Costs <br></p> <p><u><b> Important Tip </b></u> - You need to have a thorough record in place as evidence of these as business purchases – the better your records, the easier this process will be. </p> <p></p><a href="/s/-/cartridge-world"><img src="https://marketplacer.imgix.net/5t/7N6B_1NAug5dsrr7EWReNEUnE.jpg?auto=format&fm=pjpg&fit=max&w=700&h=700&s=3b5447d4f1646bf8e3fd73bbf09838a4" alt="Cartridge World Office Supplies"></a><br><p></p> <h3>Getting on to your yearly tasks & paperwork</h3> <p>Check what tasks you need to complete and get your paperwork up to date. Small businesses may need to complete the following tasks yearly: <br> • Write a summary of income and expenses <br> • Conduct a stocktake as at 30 June, if required <br> • Complete a record of your debtors and creditors <br> • Collate records of asset purchases <br> • Reconcile all purchases & expenses in your accounting software or a spreadsheet <br> • Lodge your income tax returns <br> • Prepare & file your Business Activity Statements by the due date <br> • Write off bad debts <br> • Check you are meeting superannuation requirements <br> • Lodge your yearly reports or returns for PAYG Withholding, Fringe Benefits Tax, Goods & Services Tax <br> • Speak to your accountant for getting your business-specific advice. <br></p> <p><u><b>Important Tip</b></u> - Make digital copies of any paper records and have a backup You are required to keep thorough records to support your claims for at least 5 years, therefore having digital copies and a backup is extremely important. <br></p> <h3>Stimulus package - Instant asset write-off expansion</h3> <p>From 12 March until 31 Dec 2020 the instant asset write-off threshold has increased from $30,000 to $150,000, for businesses with an aggregated turnover of less than $500 million. Businesses can now claim an immediate deduction for assets that cost less than $150,000. <br></p> <p><u><b>Important Tip</b></u> - Now could be the time to upgrade your office equipment and have the cost written off by the ATO. If there are any work-related purchases you are planning to make, you should do it before June 30th to save on taxes. </p> <h3>Claiming Your Home Office Expenses</h3> <p>Given that COVID-19 has driven so many of us to remote working, it’s likely you’ve invested in some new home office equipment, whether that’s new monitors, printer, furniture, tech, or stationery. Good news, it’s all claimable. <br></p> <p><u><b>Important Tip</b></u> - The ATO has separate guidelines for working from home, running your business from home and small businesses.

The first thing that probably comes to your mind is the lower cost of refilling as compared to buying new cartridges! This article will reveal many possible reasons why refilling cartridges can be the best option for you, as well as highlighting the adverse consequences of getting your inks refilled. Let’s have a look.</p> <h4>Pros:</h4> <ol> <li><p>Better for the environment – Since cartridges are made of plastic, every time you decide to get a new cartridge, you need to throw away the old one. This adds up to the landfill waste. Therefore, if you decide to refill your cartridges at least 3 to 4 times before purchasing a new one, you are keeping it out of the landfill for a longer duration. </p></li> <li><p>Lower cost – This is the most widespread reason for refilling cartridges. Savings are massive. You will find that refilling cartridges can save you almost 50% as opposed to buying a brand new cartridge.</p></li> <li><p>A great option for inkjet printers – If you own an inkjet printer, refilling cartridges will prove to be a great option. Since these printers function with liquid ink, a <a href="/promo/cartridge-world-refill">reliable cartridge refill company</a> would make sure they use premium & approved inks to provide the best print quality. Not to mention, most laser printers also work well with refilled cartridges.</p></li> <li><p>Availability – More often than not, this pops up as an issue when you are least expecting it. Buying a <a href="/s/-/cartridge-world">brand new cartridge</a> may sound easier but the cartridge that you use could be out of stock or simply not available anymore. Refilling your cartridge at this point, saves you buying a new printer immediately. </p></li> </ol> <h4>Cons:</h4> <ol> <li><p>Printer damage – Refilling cartridges without taking professional help can increase the risk of causing permanent damage to your printer. It could either leak or clog your print head. And while refilling cartridges, if you break your printer by any chance, it could also void your printer warranty. </p></li> <li><p>Quality of ink – If you intend to use it for a quick read or any other personal purpose, it is still an accepted solution. But if you would like to use the ink for printing high-quality pictures that you would put on display, the end results may not delight you too much. Although, if performed by a professional and with the right equipment, you can expect high-quality printing.</p></li> <li><p>Cartridge breakdown – You can only refill your cartridge up to five times. There could be different types of refilled cartridges available in the market, ranging from the ones suitably designed for your printer model to those that claim to be “compatible” with any printer. However, that doesn’t guarantee you the durability of these cartridges and they can stop working anytime. </p></li> <li><p>Messy process – Refilling cartridges can be a messy affair if you are planning to do it all by yourself. You may end up staining your hands or your work area with the ink. Worst case, you may end up clogging the printer head or experience leakages. It's best to consult a professional & experienced refilling company to get your printer cartridges refilled.</p></li> </ol> <h3>To sum up</h3> <p>Refilling cartridges is a great option that helps you with double benefits – you help save the environment & you save on costs! However, you should only get your inks refilled at trusted shops, or you risk damaging your printer. </p> <p>Cartridge World have been in the refilling business for 30 years and we can certainly assist you with any of your printing needs.

You will also have to factor in the cost of printer cartridges, but if you are happy to take on the maintenance and cost of a printer, you may want to consider buying a printer. This option typically works best for larger organisations with the means to front a large expense, and the resources to service and maintain your printers.</p> <h3>Should you lease a printer?</h3> <p>Leasing is more like buying than it first appears. You’ll make similar monthly payments for the lease term, which is usually between 3 and 5 years. You will also be responsible for servicing and maintenance under this model, as well as paying the cost of printer cartridges as you need them. Overall, the printer lease cost will make up about 40% of your overall operating cost, so it certainly is not the cheapest option. </p> <h3>Should you consider a cost-per-page model?</h3> <p>Under a cost-per-page model, you’ll pay a set rate for black and white prints, and you’ll enter into a monthly minimum volume commitment. This model is highly inflexible, because you’ll always pay for your minimum monthly print volume, and then pay overage charges for each additional print. You don’t have the added cost of cartridges, so the expense greatly depends upon your printing volume needs. If your business prints the same volume every month, then this option may work, but if your business printing needs change from month to month, then this model could get expensive quickly.</p> <h3>So why buy a printer?</h3> <p>If none of these fit your requirements, there is a <a href="/blog/tips-to-reduce-printing-repair-costs">better and cheaper way to have your business printing</a> needs met. Our flagship <a href="/promo/why-buy-a-printer-program">Why Buy a Printer</a> program allows you to lease a printer for free. Our expert team can assist with printer selection and handle servicing and maintenance, all without any charge. As well as this, your cartridges would be purchased through us, which allows you to take advantage of additional <a href="/s/-/cartridge-world">savings of up to 30% as compared to OEM brand cartridges</a>.

Only to realize that now your printer doesn't print? Oh well!! Don't worry as its a common problem and has a solution.</p> <h3>Simple answer:</h3> <p>Your printer has an “address” that your old modem knew about. But now you have a new modem and it doesn’t know your printer's address. Think of it like you have moved to a new house but didn't tell anyone about your new address. All your old mail would still go to your old address. The same thing happens here. All the print jobs are being sent to the old address.</p> <h3>More Complicated Answer:</h3> <p>Because you have changed your router your DHCP pool has changed. The DHCP is used to give IP addresses to all of your devices on the network. Most likely what has happened is your printer was being assigned a different IP address from your old router. This means your printer address has changed on the network.</p> <h3>Simple Solutions:</h3> <p>Re-install the printer driver, either from the disc or by downloading from your printer manufacturer’s web site. Follow the prompts to set up the wireless.</p> <h3>More complicated Solution:</h3> <p>Have everything switched on and phone your Printer Manufacturer Technical Support Line. </p> <h3>Last Resort:</h3> <p>Contact your NBN provider.</p> <h3>Cartridge World special trick that works most of the times:</h3> <p>Connect your printer to a computer (preferably the one that is switched on most often) via a USB cable or to your new router with a network cable if the printer is network capable. Then make sure you have set up your printer as a Shared Printer. This is the sure-fire way to get fewer issues printing.</p> <p>If nothing works, Cartridge World is always there to help you.

Easy, “should I buy an inkjet or laser printer?” </p> <p>This article is going to break down the fundamental differences between an inkjet and laser printer as well as describe which machine is better for which particular function.</p> <p>Essentially, the core difference between the two types of machines is that inkjets utilise liquid ink and laser printers contain a fine powder called toner.</p> <p>Either way, you only pay for the printer once, but you’re paying for inks (or toners) many more times than that. </p> <p>However, a laser printer also has other, very expensive items in them that also need to be replaced: Fuser, Transfer Belt and Drums x 4. So, from a cost of running perspective, a small business or home office should consider a carefully chosen Inkjet Printer. </p> <p>Now another important factor to consider is the application the machine will be used for. For high volume text printing, laser machines are absolutely the way to go, that is what they are designed for. If you simply need the printer to do some text printing every now and again as well as some images, an inkjet machine may be the most suitable option. If you need your machine to print quality graphics, an Inkjet with photo paper cannot be beaten.</p> <p>It all comes down to what you’re using the printer for. <a href="/locate/stores">Drop into your nearest Cartridge World store</a>, we have a <a href="/s/printers">large range of economical printers</a> on display and over 30 years of experience to guide you.</p> <p>Are you sure you need a laser printer? “Why, we ask?” “I have had inkjets and they are too expensive to run, slow and the ink dries up.” It is the most common reply.</p> <p>I don’t think that is accurate anymore, let’s look at these beliefs:</p> <ol> <li><b>Too expensive!</b> All laser printers have the following: Fuser & Drum and some even have a transfer belt and waste collector. All of which will need replacing and are expensive. These costs are never calculated in when buying a laser printer. Inkjets don’t have any of that. Further, lasers use a lot more electricity than inkjets. As for cartridges, it’s not unusual to get 1,200 pages from a black ink cartridge and that will only set you back $35 or so. Colours can do 900 pages for only $25 each.</li> <li> <b>Very Slow:</b> If you buy a $20 inkjet, yes sure, they are slow. $100 or so will get an Inkjet that can do at least 20 pages per minute and they start immediately, not like lasers that must warm up.</li> <li> <b>Ink Dries Up:</b> Well, not anymore, those days have gone.</li> </ol> <p>If you only want to print black, then yes, a laser is an affordable choice. But not if you want to do colour printing. Ink Printers can now print up to 100 pages a minute and go 50,000 pages before needing more ink! Ink is giving Laser a good run for the money.</p> <p>Having said that, beware the cheap inkjet printer!</p> <p>Basically, there is no such thing as a cheap printer.</p> <p>It’s stunning the number of customers that come in, asking for a replacement set of inks or toners only to find that a set is a lot more expensive than their new printer!</p> <p>That is called “The Sting in the Tail”. It’s a classic marketing move by the printer companies designed to get you hooked on their product. In their defence it costs a lot to design, manufacture and distribute a printer, they do need to get their investment back, somehow.</p> <h4>So, how do you dodge the Sting?</h4> <p>Well, if you have no special printing needs, the best way is to look at the midrange printers. That is where you most often get the best economies of scale. You usually get lots of features with cartridges that are well priced and have plenty of ink in them.</p> <p>Look at the printer box, write the details of <a href="/s/-/cartridge-world">the type of cartridges</a> the printer takes and then go to the rack and price up the cost/yield ratio (cost divided by the number of pages, gives you the cost per page). Beware printers with either a combination cartridge (like a 3 in 1 type) or a printer that has more than 5 individual cartridges.</p> <p>If all that is too much for you, then drop into your nearby store and one of our staff members can explain it to you quite easily.</p> <p>We understand that you may have time constraints and monitoring printer service is something you may wish to outsource. If you think likewise, we have a program just for you where your business receives a loan printer free of cost with Cartridge World service & monitoring at no additional cost.

It brings your ideas to life. And life is better in vivid hues. Therefore, printing documents in colour can significantly amplify your marketing and sales. Even more: colour printing expresses your brand and the values behind it. Here are some colour printing best practices that will ensure you keep bringing your ideas to life in the best possible colour.</p> <h3>Paper Quality</h3> <p>Not all <a href="/s/paper">paper</a> is created equal. Lower quality paper may cause dullness of colour or bleed on documents. You can count on regular copier paper being inferior in quality, so it should be avoided for colour documents. Bond paper with cotton fibres or paper with ribbed, linen, or eggshell are also questionable for colour printing. On the other hand, not all recycled paper is of inferior quality.</p> <h3>Printer Settings</h3> <p>The default printer settings are no one’s fault, except yours if you expect them to work precisely with the colour printing need of your office.</p> <p>As an illustration, you can quickly increase the print resolution to maximum dpi option in the print dialog screen. Furthermore, some printers need to be changed to a CMYK colour mode in order to optimise colour printing. How you change this setting depends on the printer software, but a mere Google search will yield quick results.</p> <p>While we’re on the topic of settings, make sure your computer monitor’s colour settings are calibrated to your printer settings (or at least are set to the highest quality). This ensures you don’t have a continual discrepancy between what you see on the screen and the colour document that comes out of your printing device.</p> <h3>Printer cartridge quality</h3> <p>Like your printer paper, ink and toner vary in quality. This also means the quality of your colour printing could be compromised.</p> <p>Does this mean you should only trust name-brand ink and toner (or OEM as it’s called in the industry)? Not at all – especially in a time when technology makes re-manufactured cartridges more reliable. As with any product, though, always do your homework.</p> <h3>Go for the inkjet</h3> <p><a href="/s/inkjet-printers">Inkjet printers</a> are better suited for printing colour documents, high-quality photos, or anything requiring tonal depth or brilliance. Toner technology (dry powder) that powers <a href="/s/toner-cartridges">laser printer cartridge</a> doesn’t match inkjet technology (wet ink) when it comes to colour or photo printing. Mind you, laser printers tend to last longer and are more economical in the long run. Nevertheless, there is nothing wrong with the graphics or marketing arm of your business having an inkjet printer tucked away for superior printed materials.</p> <h3>Make colours work for you</h3> <p>Riding your printer to an early death or wasting materials is not good for business (or the environment). What you print is important, indeed, but you should make every print count. Color matters a lot by these statistics:</p> <ul> <li>Ninety-two percent of people believe colour presents an image of impressive quality</li> <li>Ninety percent feel colour can assist in attracting new customers</li> <li>Eighty-three percent believe colour makes them appear more successful</li> </ul> <p>Using colour in the right context is essential. Here are some tips to help you before the next time you print a colour document for a customer:</p> <p><b>Red:</b> Gets reader attention and urges them to act. Exudes warmth, love, anger, danger, boldness, excitement, speed, and other extroverted emotions</p> <p><b>Orange:</b> Expresses extroverted feelings that also include warmth, cheerfulness, low cost, affordability, enthusiasm, and creativity.</p> <p><b>Yellow:</b> An attention-grabbing hue that communicates comfort, liveliness, hunger, optimism, happiness, and energy.</p> <p><b>Pink:</b> Says femininity (in the West) and is popular with younger children; evokes feelings of love, caring, and nurture.</p> <p><b>Green:</b> An environmental colour that can as well convey durability, reliability, luxuriousness, optimism, well-being, springtime, safety, honesty, harmony, and freshness.</p> <p><b>Blue:</b> No surprise that this colour communicates peace, professionalism, loyalty, reliability, honour, and trust.

They said email would die. They said vinyl records were a thing of the past — ditto with the computer mouse. One Nobel Prize-winning economist in the 90s even predicted that by 2005 the internet would be as redundant as the fax machine.</p> <p>The same doom and gloom scenario has been given to printing ever since the digital age went into full swing.</p> <p>The rumours of printing’s death have been greatly exaggerated. (The same goes with the paperless office)</p> <p>There are many reasons why print isn’t dead, and we’ll highlight them here (although we don’t know if we can make a case for the fax machine).</p> <h3>Printed Documents Are Still In-Demand</h3> <p>We <a href="/https://www.cartridgeworld.com.au/promo/why-buy-a-printer-program">service the printers</a> of many law, accounting, education, medical firms, and we know printed materials are crucial to these verticals. Showing up to trial or an audit with an iPad is just not conducive to effective work. There are many more reasons, cyber attacks being one of them, but all involve the fact that these entities depend on keeping detailed and available psychical records. </p> <p>Beyond print-heavy organizations, the reality is that 95 percent of all organizations still store information on paper. Paper consumption worldwide has tripled over the last 30 years.</p> <p>Does this sound to you like printers across the country going silent? The quietness of the paperless office?</p> <h3>Print Marketing Works Very Well</h3> <p>Consumers trust printed media more than digital media. We love the internet, but we engage better with physical materials. And don’t think the younger generation is going to turn their back on printed materials. A study found that 28 percent of GenZ’s read trade magazines and a whopping 75 percent read at least one magazine publication a month.</p> <h3>Print is Part of Digital</h3> <p>Throwing the baby out with the bathwater is never good. Print is an excellent complement to digital. As mentioned, physical touch is important for marketing. Even when it comes to books, SurveyMonkey research stated that most readers read eBooks primarily for their convenience but also read physical books because of the experience of comfort. What’s more, a Scientific American study revealed that people prefer and absorb information better when it’s in printed form.</p> <p>Mind you, Millennials (and all generations) aren’t going to ditch their mobile devices for magazines. We live in a digital world, and that’s not going to change. The point is that print and digital should go hand in hand when it comes to any impactful marketing.</p> <h3>You Can’t Beat Nostalgia</h3> <p>We mentioned in the beginning how vinyl records haven’t gone away. They’re popular with younger generations. The same can be said with other allegedly dated products like polaroid cameras, the Rubrik’s Cube, and bean bags. What is old sometimes becomes new again (and very in-demand!)</p> <p>At the same time, Millennials are the most nostalgic generation of any age, according to research. The research also claimed that digital experiences don’t satisfy emotional needs, so once again, those corny and old printed materials can a huge advantage when it comes to engaging audiences.</p> <h3>Print Isn’t Evil</h3> <p>We know that printing can be a strain on natural resources. Bear in mind that paper is also a renewable resource (meaning it can be regrown or replenished in one or two human lifetimes). The truth is that paper often comes from managed forests or farms, which replant about four million trees every day (four times more than they harvest).</p> <p>What about those pesky mailers or postcards (which work very well for marketing, as you’re finding out here)? Statistics say that 70 percent of all cardboard is recovered for recycling. Note that recycling cardboard only takes 75 percent of the energy need to make new cardboard; and recycling one ton of cardboard saves 46 gallons of oil.</p> <p>As you can see, print is alive and well.</p> <p>We can’t help you with Elvis being alive or the future of the fax machine, but we do hope that you’re closer to leveraging printing for superior business marketing, security, and even sustainability.</p> <p>Looking for a dependable and eco-friendly printer experience?

The following tips will show you how to minimise your printer repair costs.</p> <h3>Train your staff on correct printer usage</h3> <p>It is crucial to train your staff on the right printer usage. By doing this, you reduce your chances of getting into problems brought about by printer misuse. When purchasing a printer, remember, not everyone knows how to use it. Therefore, it is crucial to put your resources in some training.</p> <h3>Carry out preventive measures</h3> <p>Preventative measures are vital because they help prevent printer breakdowns. Read the manual of your printer on proper usage techniques. Also, ensure that you clean your printer well on a regular basis and always be careful on the small malfunctions which might become serious with time and become expensive to repair.</p> <h3>Don’t overwork your printer!</h3> <p>If you are a busy site and your printer(s) is going flat out, consider buying a spare or 2nd printer. It will reduce the workload, make staff happier AND gives you a fall-back printer WHEN your primary printer has a problem (it will eventually!). Just upgrading to a bigger faster printer and ditching your current printer(s) is a recipe for disaster if the new unit gives problems! (and it will, eventually)</p> <p>If you’re in need of some printer servicing/ repairs, if you think your machine has run its life and you’re perhaps considering upgrading, or you just want some information on printers - <a href="/locate/stores">contact any your local Cartridge World store</a>. we'd be happy to assist.</p> <p>If you feel you are losing valuable business hours with printer troubles, our <a href="/promo/why-buy-a-printer-program">'Why Buy A Printer?'

If so this can be very stressful as you feel you are being ripped off. There can be quite a few reasons for this to happen.</p> <h3>1. Small capacity cartridges in an old printer:</h3> <p>Older style printers could only print a few hundred pages at most due to the cartridge capacity. Modern printers now have much larger capacity cartridges (for almost the same price!!) due to customer demand. </p> <h3>2. Quality of your print:</h3> <p>For your normal day to day printing you may have the quality setting too high. Look for Draft or lower the Dots Per Inch (DPI) setting.</p> <h3>3. Using Colour needlessly:</h3> <p>Did you know that when selecting Black & White you are still using colour? Try to find Greyscale as Greyscale will only use black ink.</p> <h3>4. You may be printing more than you realise:</h3> <p>Many customers say, “I only installed a new cartridge a couple of months ago.” Sadly, time is not the benchmark. It’s the number of pages you are printing.</p> <h3>5. What you are printing has a huge effect:</h3> <p>If you are printing images or photos then you will be tearing through ink or toner. Consider getting your photos printed at one of local Cartridge World stores using their <a href="/promo/cartridge-world-canon-print-now">easy to use on-demand print service</a>. Also, the amount of text you are putting on a page is a big factor.</p> <p>If you are concerned about your printer consumption <a href="/locate/stores">contact your nearest Cartridge World store</a> and we will be delighted to assist you. </p> <p></p><a href="/s/-/cartridge-world"><img src="https://marketplacer.imgix.net/WS/MQnkEq2DORujBhrPdmzYifjWA.jpg?auto=format&fm=pjpg&fit=max&w=700&h=700&s=68cef9c4ca2766e712b21e4a3213298c" alt="cartridge World Ink & Toner"></a><br><p></p> ";s:7:"attribs";a:0:{}s:8:"xml_base";s:0:"";s:17:"xml_base_explicit";b:0;s:8:"xml_lang";s:0:"";}}}}}i:26;a:6:{s:4:"data";s:47:" ";s:7:"attribs";a:0:{}s:8:"xml_base";s:0:"";s:17:"xml_base_explicit";b:0;s:8:"xml_lang";s:0:"";s:5:"child";a:1:{s:0:"";a:6:{s:5:"title";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:"data";s:40:"Answers to Top 5 Common Printer Problems";s:7:"attribs";a:0:{}s:8:"xml_base";s:0:"";s:17:"xml_base_explicit";b:0;s:8:"xml_lang";s:0:"";}}s:8:"category";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:"data";s:16:"Printer Concerns";s:7:"attribs";a:0:{}s:8:"xml_base";s:0:"";s:17:"xml_base_explicit";b:0;s:8:"xml_lang";s:0:"";}}s:7:"pubDate";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:"data";s:31:"Wed, 04 Sep 2019 11:54:05 +1000";s:7:"attribs";a:0:{}s:8:"xml_base";s:0:"";s:17:"xml_base_explicit";b:0;s:8:"xml_lang";s:0:"";}}s:4:"link";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:"data";s:68:"https://www.cartridgeworld.com.au/blog/top-5-common-printer-problems";s:7:"attribs";a:0:{}s:8:"xml_base";s:0:"";s:17:"xml_base_explicit";b:0;s:8:"xml_lang";s:0:"";}}s:4:"guid";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:"data";s:68:"https://www.cartridgeworld.com.au/blog/top-5-common-printer-problems";s:7:"attribs";a:0:{}s:8:"xml_base";s:0:"";s:17:"xml_base_explicit";b:0;s:8:"xml_lang";s:0:"";}}s:11:"description";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:"data";s:2674:"<img alt="Answers to Top 5 Common Printer Problems" src="https://marketplacer.imgix.net/C6/qA_J6v08nz5qHWJKcFpXZ6NAI.png?auto=format&fm=pjpg&fit=max&q=90&alt=Answers%20to%20Top%205%20Common%20Printer%20Problems&w=1600&h=1000&s=75b8263ca7b8b8d93ddeeb89e5cc86c2" /><p>Being in the industry for last 3 decades, we are proud to be recognised as the 'Trusted Printing Partners' by our customers. We have worked with businesses big & small and have heard numerous stories about their pain points related to their printers. Here is a list of top 5 printer related concerns that our customers have shared with us. </p> <h3>1. The Web Page Won’t Print Properly</h3> <p>Web pages are not a uniformed size, always check Print Preview before printing in your web browser to ensure you aren’t printing page after page of information when you only need the first page.</p> <h3>2. My Printer Lies about Empty Cartridges</h3> <p>The empty cartridge signal from many printers is just a preemptive warning, letting you know it’s time to order a replacement. Try not to run the cartridge completely dry, ink is a coolant for the printhead.</p> <h3>3. Paper is Stuck in the Printer</h3> <p>When paper is regularly getting stuck in the printer, the culprit is often a small shred of paper trapped within the mechanism. Remove all the sheets of paper out of the tray and open all the printer’s flaps. Switch off the printer & use a torch and a pair of tweezers to locate the offending strip of paper and carefully remove it. The printing process should be able to continue now without further obstructions.</p> <h3>4. My prints have white spots.</h3> <p>If you have white spots all over the page, it’s possible your paper has absorbed humidity from the air. Get fresh, unopened paper and see if the problem goes away.</p> <h3>5. There’s White Lines on My Print Jobs</h3> <p>If there are unwanted white lines on a print job, it may be indicative of debris between the toner cartridge and drum. Remove the cartridge and drum and softly brush away any debris before refitting the consumables.</p> <p>If problems persist, <a href="/locate/stores">contact your local Cartridge World store</a> for assistance. </p> <p>If you feel you are losing valuable business hours with printer troubles, our <a href="/promo/why-buy-a-printer-program">'Why Buy A Printer?'

A study by International Workplace Group in 2018 said that almost 70 per cent of us work remotely for at least a day each week and close to 50 per cent spend at least half the working week away from the office.</p> <p>Those out of office hours aren’t necessarily spent toiling away in the home office either. The rise of mobile technology means it’s now possible to set up a temporary perch anywhere that has a PowerPoint and a comfy seat.</p> <p>At the same time, while digitisation may have brought many organisations and individuals within sight of the much-vaunted paperless office, it’s not here yet and may not be for a while. Research published by Clean Up Australia suggests the average Australian office worker goes through 10,000 sheets of A4 a year.</p> <h3>On-Demand Printing</h3> <p>Even in the most determinedly digital enterprises, there’s no shortage of occasions when a hard copy of a document is not a nice to have but, rather, a necessity. What businesses need now are solutions which enable users to <a href="//promo/cartridge-world-canon-print-now">print whatever they need, whenever they need it, for a competitive price</a>.</p> <p>The easiest solutions are those that that enable you to create an account and once you add some payment details, then allow you to upload your documents or photographs securely and elect to print them instantly or add them to your print queue. From there, it’s a matter of using a mobile website to locate a participating store and heading on down to complete the transaction. The value of on-demand printing will be in its capacity to provide an additional level of convenience for workers on the move, folk who’d like to print their photographs without having to queue for a kiosk or booth and families who need occasional access to a printer but don’t want the expense of owning and running their own.</p> <p>Cartridge World has partnered with Canon PrintNow service to provide on-the-go printing service. Read more about our service as it might be useful to you <a href="/promo/cartridge-world-canon-print-now">the next time you are looking for getting a document printed</a>.</p> <h3>3D Printing</h3> <p>Just as on-demand printing is taking off, another key trend that we’re likely to see continue into 2020 and beyond is 3D printing. Hundreds of enterprises across a diverse range of industries have found practical applications for 3D print technology in recent years. Its great strength is the fact it’s possible to produce a multiplicity of objects in different materials, from the same piece of manufacturing equipment.</p> <p>3D printers can be used for rapid prototyping – the process of giving physical form to concepts and products under development – without the need for expensive moulds or tools. That’s a boon for manufacturers looking to bring new products to fruition and those which need to create customised or one-off items and replacement parts.</p> <p>3D printing is also a valuable aid for architects and engineers who want to build scale models quickly and economically. In the healthcare industry, 3D printers can be employed to create prosthetics, including artificial ears and limbs, dental braces and aligners, eye-wear, therapeutic shoe inserts and more.</p> <p>On the home front, hobbyists are investing in consumer-grade 3D printers to produce models, figurines and sculptures. We’re also seeing enterprising individuals doing brisk business selling their services as 3D modelling experts.</p> <p>Management consultancy Deloitte in late 2018 predicted global sales related to 3D printing by large public companies would hit $3 billion by 2020. Annual growth is expected to continue at well above 10 per cent for the next few years and possibly beyond.</p> <p>It’s a fair bet we’ll see skills taught in the classroom transferred to small businesses over the next decade, as today’s cohort of digitally savvy students progressively move into the world of work.</p> <p><em>The article by our CEO was first published in <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer" href="https://insidesmallbusiness.com.au/featured/are-you-on-board-with-on-demand-and-3d-printing">Inside Small Business.</a></em></p> ";s:7:"attribs";a:0:{}s:8:"xml_base";s:0:"";s:17:"xml_base_explicit";b:0;s:8:"xml_lang";s:0:"";}}}}}i:28;a:6:{s:4:"data";s:47:" ";s:7:"attribs";a:0:{}s:8:"xml_base";s:0:"";s:17:"xml_base_explicit";b:0;s:8:"xml_lang";s:0:"";s:5:"child";a:1:{s:0:"";a:6:{s:5:"title";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:"data";s:38:"How To Extend the Life of Your Printer";s:7:"attribs";a:0:{}s:8:"xml_base";s:0:"";s:17:"xml_base_explicit";b:0;s:8:"xml_lang";s:0:"";}}s:8:"category";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:"data";s:8:"How To's";s:7:"attribs";a:0:{}s:8:"xml_base";s:0:"";s:17:"xml_base_explicit";b:0;s:8:"xml_lang";s:0:"";}}s:7:"pubDate";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:"data";s:31:"Wed, 14 Aug 2019 14:02:10 +1000";s:7:"attribs";a:0:{}s:8:"xml_base";s:0:"";s:17:"xml_base_explicit";b:0;s:8:"xml_lang";s:0:"";}}s:4:"link";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:"data";s:61:"https://www.cartridgeworld.com.au/blog/extend-life-of-printer";s:7:"attribs";a:0:{}s:8:"xml_base";s:0:"";s:17:"xml_base_explicit";b:0;s:8:"xml_lang";s:0:"";}}s:4:"guid";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:"data";s:61:"https://www.cartridgeworld.com.au/blog/extend-life-of-printer";s:7:"attribs";a:0:{}s:8:"xml_base";s:0:"";s:17:"xml_base_explicit";b:0;s:8:"xml_lang";s:0:"";}}s:11:"description";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:"data";s:4105:"<img alt="How To Extend the Life of Your Printer" src="https://marketplacer.imgix.net/zm/C7edgTWn5h-uYy-juRE4V6JU0.png?auto=format&fm=pjpg&fit=max&q=90&alt=How%20To%20Extend%20the%20Life%20of%20Your%20Printer&w=1600&h=1000&s=525026b948233f3f3e9abe33ac065994" /><p>The lifespan of your printer will depend on many different factors – from model and manufacturer to how often it’s used. Just a few simple steps each day can help you avoid many common printer problems and ensure it will last as long as possible. Here are some tips to extend the life of your printer:</p> <h3>1.Clean the Inside of Your Printer</h3> <p>One of the best things you can do to help extend your printer’s lifespan is keeping its interior as clean as possible. Look for excess paper dust or other debris when you open up your printer, and gently wipe debris from your printer. This should take fewer than five minutes, and you only need to do this about once a month. If you use your printers often or are printing on a larger scale – as many businesses do – checking two to three times a month is ideal.</p> <h3>2.Close the Manual Feed Tray When Not in Use</h3> <p>If you print labels or legal-size documents, your printer likely has a manual feed tray. When you’re not using the feed tray, be sure to close it. The tray protrudes from the printer and can easily be knocked over or broken by someone passing by. Consistently folding your tray in and out can sometimes be a hassle, but it’s also one of the easiest steps you can take for preventative maintenance on your printer.</p> <h3>3.Replace Cartridges Before They Dry Up</h3> <p>Don’t wait until your cartridges dry up completely before replacing them. Many low ink or toner warnings go off when there is 20 percent ink or toner left in the cartridge. While it is not necessary to replace the cartridge as soon as you get notified, it is a good idea to plan on replacing it within a few weeks. A dry cartridge leads to wear and tear on your printer head.</p> <h3>4.Be Careful When Replacing Cartridges</h3> <p>Chances are you will be replacing your <a href="/s/printer-ink-cartridges">printer cartridges</a> fairly frequently. Exercise caution while replacing your cartridges. Read the instructions carefully, and be sure not to touch the bottom of the cartridge while replacing it. This can reduce the quality of the print, while also negatively impacting your printer’s overall health.</p> <h3>5.Keep Your Printer in Standby Mode</h3> <p>Constantly switching your printer on and off is not good for the printer. However, if you are not going to use your printer for days at a time, you will want to keep it in standby mode. <a href="/s/printers">Printers</a> generate a lot of heat while they are on – even if they are not actively printing. The print header can dry up the cartridge, clogging the header. Leaving your printer on for long periods of time can also cause wear and tear in other areas, so it’s best to keep it in standby mode if you don’t plan to use it for a few days.</p> <p>By making small, simple changes, you can drastically extend the lifespan of your printer. Not only will your printer work at peak performance with regular maintenance, but it will also last much longer.</p> <p>We understand that you may have time constraints and monitoring printer service is something you may wish to outsource. If you think likewise, we have a program just for you where your business receives a loan printer free of cost with Cartridge World service & monitoring at no additional cost.

They may have tried a generic option a decade ago and found it wanting and, as a result, they’ve stuck to Original Equipment Manufacturer cartridges despite what can be a significant cost differential between their offerings and generic equivalents.</p> <h3>Why brand name knock-offs can be a bad bargain</h3> <p>Most printer owners are aware the major expense associated with <a href="/promo/why-buy-a-printer-program">printing is not the purchase of the machine itself</a> – manufacturers churn them out for low or no margin and retailers frequently sell them as loss leaders – but the cost of the consumables.</p> <p>That’s how vendors make their money, as anyone who’s experienced the phenomenon whereby it’s cheaper to buy a new machine than replace the toner cartridge in an existing one, can attest. The old saying that you get what you pay for holds true for just about everything in life – and that includes generic cartridges.</p> <p>Some no-name knock-offs sell for as little as a third of the price of the branded equivalents. That can look like an attractive saving for business owners keen to keep a lid on the cost of office supplies but, more often than not, super-cheap cartridges can prove a bad bargain. Typically, they’re produced courtesy of patent infringement: counterfeit clones which can bear as little resemblance to the genuine article.</p> <p>Common problems can include: poor print quality; ink that’s not water-resistant and will smudge at a touch, or when a highlighter is used on the page; ink that fades too fast; washed-out colour; toner leaking into the printer body; cartridges which yield far fewer pages than what’s promised on the box; and cartridges which, despite the sales spiel, turn out to be incompatible with the machine they’ve been purchased for.</p> <p>Obtaining after-sales service can also be problematic, particularly if you happened to buy the item in question from a web site, with no physical premises or phone number in Australia.</p> <h3>Securing the savings</h3> <p>Printing is one of the top 10 office expenses for small businesses and a significant cost for individuals who have a home printer for business or personal use. For customers who choose smartly, generic consumables can be a simple and <a href="/blog/reduce-printing-costs">painless way to cut costs</a>, without compromising on quality. If it’s been some time since you experimented with them, I’d encourage you to give them another go.</p> <p><em>Peter Mitropoulos, Group CEO and Owner, Cartridge World Australia & New Zealand</em></p> <p>This content was published in <a href="/latest-news/generic-printer-consumables-can-deliver-quality-and-value">Inside Small Business Australia</a>, dated July 25, 2019.</p> ";s:7:"attribs";a:0:{}s:8:"xml_base";s:0:"";s:17:"xml_base_explicit";b:0;s:8:"xml_lang";s:0:"";}}}}}i:32;a:6:{s:4:"data";s:47:" ";s:7:"attribs";a:0:{}s:8:"xml_base";s:0:"";s:17:"xml_base_explicit";b:0;s:8:"xml_lang";s:0:"";s:5:"child";a:1:{s:0:"";a:6:{s:5:"title";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:"data";s:79:"Cartridge World Boosts B2B Customer Experience with Mobile Franchisee Operation";s:7:"attribs";a:0:{}s:8:"xml_base";s:0:"";s:17:"xml_base_explicit";b:0;s:8:"xml_lang";s:0:"";}}s:8:"category";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:"data";s:11:"Latest News";s:7:"attribs";a:0:{}s:8:"xml_base";s:0:"";s:17:"xml_base_explicit";b:0;s:8:"xml_lang";s:0:"";}}s:7:"pubDate";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:"data";s:31:"Wed, 24 Jul 2019 16:12:45 +1000";s:7:"attribs";a:0:{}s:8:"xml_base";s:0:"";s:17:"xml_base_explicit";b:0;s:8:"xml_lang";s:0:"";}}s:4:"link";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:"data";s:85:"https://www.cartridgeworld.com.au/blog/cartridge-world-b2b-mobile-franchise-operation";s:7:"attribs";a:0:{}s:8:"xml_base";s:0:"";s:17:"xml_base_explicit";b:0;s:8:"xml_lang";s:0:"";}}s:4:"guid";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:"data";s:85:"https://www.cartridgeworld.com.au/blog/cartridge-world-b2b-mobile-franchise-operation";s:7:"attribs";a:0:{}s:8:"xml_base";s:0:"";s:17:"xml_base_explicit";b:0;s:8:"xml_lang";s:0:"";}}s:11:"description";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:"data";s:3865:"<img alt="Cartridge World Boosts B2B Customer Experience with Mobile Franchisee Operation" src="https://marketplacer.imgix.net/gz/5-8Ef1tMm__mvXFOuAauuwbT4.png?auto=format&fm=pjpg&fit=max&q=90&alt=Cartridge%20World%20Boosts%20B2B%20Customer%20Experience%20with%20Mobile%20Franchisee%20Operation&w=1600&h=1000&s=e1dbbff6dab1583ebaa8f726ed02f017" /><p>Brisbane, 23 July 2019 – Cartridge World, one of Australia’s leading dedicated specialty retailers of ink and toner printer cartridges, has launched a mobile franchisee operation in the Brisbane suburb of North Lakes enabling the company to service the area’s SME businesses with a more personalised experience.</p> <p>The franchise is owned by Steve Spink, a former Cartridge World sales manager.

Ultimately, this type of relationship will generate valuable information that can be used to improve understanding of individual customer behaviour and buying intentions.</p> <p>The mobile franchisee operation will see Spink support B2B organisations in the North Lakes area with the full range of Cartridge World printers and consumables normally stocked in a typical bricks and mortar franchisee. Customers will also have the benefit of seamless access to Cartridge World’s major warehouse operations in the Brisbane region for rapid delivery of stock to fulfil their requirements.</p> <p>Ongoing support will also feature in the mobile franchisee operation in a strategy designed to assist customers with assistance at their own moment of need.</p> <p>Spink says, “Our franchisee business operation has been designed to guarantee fantastic customer support. After all, business is all about the relationships and B2B organisations want partners that are always there to help with advice and feedback, and to point them in the right direction.”</p> <h3>About Cartridge World</h3> <p>Cartridge World is one of the world’s largest dedicated specialty retailers of ink and toner printer cartridges and one of the world's fastest growing franchises.

The end of the financial year typically invokes a flurry of activity in Australia’s two million-odd businesses, with most eager to get their houses in order, on the finance and administration fronts, by the time June 30 rolls around.</p> <p>Printing can be one of the big office expenses for small and mid-sized enterprises. EOFY is a good time to review your print strategy and usage and make changes that can help trim the size of your printing tab, in the 2020 financial year. Here are four ways to do so.</p> <h3>1. Choose cut-price consumables</h3> <p>Do you opt for the generic brand when you’re having a script filled at the pharmacy, or choose OEM parts and consumables when your car is in the repair shop? If so, you’re familiar with the concept of receiving equivalent quality goods without the big brand price tag.</p> <p>Taking the same approach to printer consumables – opting for <a href="/s/-/cartridge-world">reputable generic substitutes</a> rather than the manufacturer’s own lines – can result in savings of up to 30 per cent. It’s a straightforward way to cut costs – significantly easier than, for example, asking employees to ‘think before they print’ or adopt paper-free practices that aren’t compatible with the way your business does business.</p> <h3>2. Stock the store room</h3> <p>If you have a good idea of your printing requirements over the next 12 months, and money in the office supplies budget to spend before 1 July, stocking the storeroom with consumables can be a tax effective move. Having a stash of supplies on hand reduces the need for regular reordering and means one less task for admin staff to stay on top of in the new financial year.</p> <h3>3. Crack down on colour</h3> <p>Do you have rules in place which dictate whether your employees can print their documents in colour, or is it a matter of anything goes? Some of Australia’s largest organisations, including many government departments and agencies, have cut back on colour and are reaping significant savings as a result.</p> <p>Printing in colour can cost up to 10 times more than doing so in black and white – think around five cents a copy versus 0.5 cents, for those on managed print service agreements. Cutting back on colour needn’t be something that’s arduous for businesses to police – scan codes or cards can be used to determine who can and can’t have access to the colour toner drums.</p> <h3>4. Buy black and white machines</h3> <p>One way to sidestep the colour question entirely is to buy or lease machines which only print in black and white. It’s not the preferred option for printer resellers, who typically push the colour option enthusiastically. Higher unit prices and higher consumables costs mean more money in the till and that’s part of the reason why an estimated 90 percent of office printers in Australia have a colour option.</p> <p>The good news is, there are plenty of mono printers on the market which can turn out equally high-quality pages. If your business has no, or limited, need to produce colour documents, opting for one or several black and white printers can mean more money in the bank in 2020.

Printing costs can often turn out to be really expensive and damaging to your wallet. Especially if you run a business and need to print several pages on a regular basis. </p> <p>A few well-planned measures can make a big difference when it comes to lowering your printing costs. To start with, let’s look at some ways from the relatively effortless to the more aggressive. </p> <h3>1. Buy compatible printer ink cartridges</h3> <p>When you purchase toners or ink cartridges online, don’t always look for an expensive OEM branded cartridge. Instead, you may wish to explore other alternatives besides the branded ones. They are compatible with your printers and do the same job at much cheaper costs. We sell <a href="/s/printer-ink-cartridges">high quality printer ink</a> online at prices that let you save up to 30% as compared to the OEMs. While selecting <a href="/s/-/cartridge-world">compatible cartridge options</a> for your printer, it is quite essential that you review the customer service standards of the company. With Cartridge World Australia, you get 100% satisfaction guarantee for the cartridges. </p> <h3>2. Refill your ink cartridges</h3> <p>Most people aren’t aware that they can refill their used ink cartridges at the some local printing outlets instead of purchasing branded products. This seems like a more sustainable and economical option. If your cartridges are fairly new, you can refill them at least five to six times, before having to purchase a new one. One thing to note is that some shops carry ink that is compatible with selected printer models only, which needs to be checked closely before getting your cartridge refilled. Cartridge World has stores in more than 120 locations across Australia, and our specialist team can help you with refilling options. <a href="/locate/stores">Contact your local Cartridge World store</a> to find out if they have a refilling facility. </p> <h3>3. Buy high-capacity printer cartridges</h3> <p>Printer cartridges and toners come in several versions. It is always better to use those with high-capacity printing options (normally called XL or HC) to significantly reduce your printing costs per page. However, you should consider your printing behaviour before finalising your purchase. XL cartridges work great if you print a lot. However, if you do not print much, buying an XL cartridge will not benefit you and further large ink cartridges will dry out adding to your cost. </p> <h3>4. Do not act at the first message</h3> <p>There is no need to replace your cartridge immediately upon receiving a message that the ink level is low. Wait until the cartridge is really empty and then replace it with a new one. If you use toner cartridges, you may consider removing the toner and shaking it a few times horizontally. You will be surprised to see that you can continue printing with the same cartridge for a little longer and without any error. </p> <h3>5. Purchase value packs</h3> <p>To save your hard-earned bucks, you can buy cartridges and toners in different value packs or multi packs. These packs are available for both original as well as alternative products. You can save as much as 30 percent if you purchase in sets than as individual packs. </p> <h3>6. Shut down your printer appropriately</h3> <p>If you are using an <a href="/s/inkjet-printers">inkjet printer</a>, make sure not to switch it off through the power strip. These devices do not require much power, but if you disconnect them completely from the power source, they need to reinstall themselves when they are connected again. This causes the print heads to consume more ink than usual thereby adding to your printing overheads. </p> <p>For <a href="/s/laser-printers">laser printers</a> again, they consume a larger amount of power when they are in idle mode. Usually they come with an “off switch” which disconnects them from the main and does not put them in standby mode. Therefore for these printers, you need to switch them off via the power strip as they are not cleaned by default when you reboot them. </p> <h3>7. Preview before you print a page</h3> <p>Many times, especially in an office environment, you may end up printing an entire ten page document when you only need two pages from it. Previewing the print job will help you to select the exact pages you want to print, and reduce your paper and ink usage on a daily basis. Another tip is that many internal documents do not require added elements like graphics or logos, so removing those and printing in black and white is a great budget-friendly alternative. </p> <h3>8. Print fewer pages</h3> <p>There are some printers that come with the option to print on both sides of a page. You can further save your cost here by decreasing page margins or double-line spacing to fit more content in fewer pages. Check on the font size and style as well. Few font styles burn more ink than others. Take for instance, fonts like ‘Calibri’ and ‘Arial’ will consume lesser ink than ‘Arial Black’ and ‘Broadway’.</p> <h3>9. Choose economical paper</h3> <p>A little known fact is that cheap paper actually consumes more ink due to the high absorbency rate, leading to higher printing cost. On the other hand, very thick premium paper, such as those used for creating brochures or cards, can be priced on the higher end. For regular use, a thickness of 80 grams per square meter is a smart choice, while important business paperwork can be printed on <a href="/s/paper">paper</a> with 100 grams per square meter thickness. If you are with a graphic design agency or a photo book publisher, printing photographs requires a special kind of photo paper. Unless it’s the final copy, a budget-friendly alternative is to print on recycled paper for internal purposes.</p> <p>For noticeable savings on printing costs and paper usage, these easy to implement tips can go a long way in drastically reducing additional expenses. </p> <p>Cartridge World is a reliable brand that sells ink, toner, printer, paper & office supplies.
