If you are an office manager, a buyer, a business owner or perhaps someone with the responsibility of ordering printing supplies, you know that it is not easy to have the inventory of supplies stocked for all of your printers/faxes/copier at the time you'll most need it.
As a matter of fact, often times you find yourself in a last-minute bind, realizing you've ran out of toner without a spare on hand, and have to pay a grip for it down at the local office supplies store. We've all been there. Luckily, there are some easy ways to deal with this problem.
While the local office supplies stores such as Office Depot and Staples can do the trick from time to time, it often comes with a hefty price tag, as these stores mainly carry the original brand supplies, and at full retail prices. Even if you do find a compatible/re manufactured supply, you realize that it's not dramatically cheaper than the original brand.
My theory is that according to business agreements, they are not allowed to sell third party products at a significantly cheaper price. This is probably for the sake of protecting the sales of the original-brand supplies. Often times you see a price difference of a mere 10% or so.
The other drawback of the local office supply store is that they lack supplies for many of the printer/copier/fax models out there. They basically only stock either the most popular ones, or for the machines they sell. Often times you will NOT be able to find the cartridges your office needs because your machine is either not popular, is too old, or simply because they do not carry that particular printer/copier/fax.
So, what's the best solution? It's simpler than you think. If you want to save about 50% or more, and be able to locate just about all of your printing supplies in one place, then you should look for a reliable online discount supplier for your printer toner, ink cartridges, and other printing supplies.
One such store is Tonerall.com which specializes in carrying compatible/generic/re manufactured supplies for both the popular machines and rare machines alike, and at prices that you will be happy with. ecommerce sites like Tonerall.com is not restricted to selling the compatible supplies at near OEM prices.
As a matter of fact, the savings are typically 50% off or more, when compared to the typical prices of OEM products! Now, when the cost is this low, you will easily be able to purchase at least a couple of extra cartridges for each of your machine, so that you'll never be in a printing bind again!
