Does The Quality Of Your Printer Ink Really Matter?
Any printer manufacturer will tell you that you should only use their ink - and many give dire warnings about the evils of generic ink or recycled cartridges. But is this just a way for them to convince you to buy their cartridges, or does it really make a difference?
In reality, both ideas are true in certain situations. Consider how inkjet printers operate. Small dots are sprayed onto paper by the printer and form the complete image.
High quality ink is important to overall print quality because the small size of dots used in inkjet printing need to be positioned precisely. If not, the result will be less clear.
Printers are sophisticated machines that use advanced technology to work. All their components need to be able to function together. Companies that make printers produce their own brand of ink and paper that are designed to work together, offering the best results possible.
Using ink and printers from different brands will result in a lower quality of printing. In order to prevent bad results, make sure that the printer and the ink you are using are designed to work together.
That’s not to say the original manufacturer is the only ink you should use, however. The fact is there are “generic” cartridges and refill ink that will work fine with your printer, you just need to be sure that it is designed for the model you’re going to use it with.
Since companies that make printers earn more profits from sales of ink cartridges than anything else, they don’t want you to think that there are other viable alternatives.
As long as you ensure the ink (and other supplies) you’re using are compatible, you won’t run into problems and your print quality will be every bit as good as with the original (much more expensive) ink.
