Hi Justing943, When I answered your question, I was assumimg you were talking about toners for the same printer. In other words, for any given laser printer black and color are essentially the same price. However, if you get a black ONLY printer, then the toner for that printer will be much...

Hi justing943, Laser cartridges are essentially built the same way regardless of color. Typically, they are also priced the same way. In many cases the price is the same regardless of color. However, in some cases that is not true. Some manufacturers build black cartridges that have a...

Quality pigment inks are properly dispersed and do not suspend or sink to the bottom or anything like that. A good ink stays uniformly mixed and is stable. Furthermore, a good ink have the right viscosity and surface tension to work well with your system. Most importantly a good pigment ink...

Thanks for the recommending my site Slocumeddie. Yes, Inkowl carries all the SAMSUNG chips and kits. However, we recommend that you never accept firmware updates from SAMSUNG because they only serve to disable aftermarket chips. I am EXTREMELY interested in what Bertz is suggesting. Has...

I hate CISS systems in general because of the reasons pointed out by qwertydude and because the idea of having tanks sticking out of a printer with ribbon cable tubes connected to cartridges never turned me on. If anything goes wrong you have a real mess on your hands. One thing fails, the...

Hi alaa945, I wouldn't worry about the quality of the CISS system you bought. Most of these work just fine as long as a good ink is used. Of course I have found that some systems work better than others and I have my personal preferences which are offered for sale on my own website. However...

Thank You to everyone who posted!! I now know for a fact that I am not the only "Printer Nerd" on this planet. I no longer feel alone and can relate to everything you all have posted. Thanks again TheTonerGuy

These older printers were built very solid and reliable compared to the crap out there today. If you feel that it is in good shape, then go for it. Furthermore, the toners used in these older printers are not Chemical Toners. As such they tend to be much easier to refill should you decide to...

Hi Magoolio, Your printer might be fine for now but it will stop printing very soon. You will need to install a new chip for it to keep on working. In order to avoid problems, you must NEVER accept firmware UPDATES from SAMSUNG. These updates only serve to disable the functionality of...

Hi Websnail, If you every need my help, I would be willing. It would have to be in a 3 way telephone call. My written Italian sucks but I am very good with spoken Italian. Although I was born in Canada, my Italian parents make sure I learned the language very well. Regards, TheTonerGuy

Nayeem, I think I may have the solution to your problem. In my earlier reply I said, "Lastly, it can be the laser that is no longer scanning the last inch of your paper." One of my customers had the same issue this morning. I told him the same thing that I told you in the reply I provided...

The Hat. Thank you very much sir. Your comments are most appreciated. :-) Andrea (TheTonerGuy)

Hi JayJay, Although I'm TheTonerGuy, I operate a small local store in the Montreal area and my clients absolutely just love the Brother inkjet printers for very low cost printing. Since you are not printing photos, Brother's quality with aftermarket inks is perfect. We use Brother inkjet...

Hi Nayeem and ross, The problems you are experiencing are quite different. Nayeem's Problem First or all, toners do not bleed. If you are getting a one inch band all the way down the page, you need to check 2 things. 1) Look in your manual to see if your printer has an excess toner...

Hi Websnail. Thank you for posting that CIS article. It is truly amazing. I will not go that far but have gained a ton of insight on how these cartridges work. The printhead swection was also very educational. From what I can see so far, the best solutions seems to be using some form of CIS...

Thanks for your comments ThrillaMozilla! Unfortunately, the HP 940 cartridges are quite different from the HP 564. I believe you are right when you say that the HP564 will be fine if you print until you start getting streaks. However, the HP 940 are stationary cartridges that attach to the...

As my name suggests, I am mostly a toner expert. However, every now and then a customer comes to see me requesting an inkjet refill. I have some deep concerns about refilling the HP 940 and 940XL cartridges because of the chip. Apparently there is no way to reset the chip nor are there any...

Thanks for the warm welcome...I have a lot to learn from all of you as well. The Hat's joke was very funny...

Thanks Guys!! I may share his first name but I do not have his voice.
