Whether the story about the office supplies company handing out a free printer with every new ink cartridge bought is true or not, the underlying message strikes a chord with many people.
Most people don’t relish the idea of buying in cartridges, but pre-planning will save replacement costs.By purchasing generic, remanufactured or re-inked printer cartridges, significant cost savings can be realised.By sourcing these ink cartridges from a reliable supplier, quality can be assured. 
Another way is to purchase larger quantities.There is an initial cost consideration, but the unit price of cartridges is often cheaper in bulk, and plus there is a time benefit too.The convenience of having additional ink cartridges on hand is an added benefit !
And if you choose your printer cartridge supplier carefully, you can help save the environment at the same time – without lifting a finger ! 
Earthink is a 100 per cent Australian owned and operated web-based supplier of a huge range of printer peripherals and ink cartridges that delivers across Australia, and importantly, is environmentally conscious and contributes part proceeds of all sales towards the reduction of carbon emissions.  Literally.  A portion of all sales of its over 2000 products goes to Carbon Neutral, a non-profit organisation that plants native trees in Australia which help offset carbon emissions. 
We all should be taking steps to reduce our carbon footprint, which is the measure of the impact that our activities have on the environment, particualrly climate change.A good place to begin is to evaluate where we purchase our ink cartridges from.
Changing attitudes towards generic printer cartridges is another challenge.  In the majority of cases, generic or compatible cartridges are just as good as those from the Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) – they just don’t carry the brand name.
Also, remanufactured cartridges offer a cost-effective alternative to originals.In simple terms, these are ink cartridges that have been re-built using fully operational parts.  The unit is physically dismantled, cleaned, checked for any faulty parts, put back together and refilled.These can be less than half the price of branded originals.  When buying generic ink cartridges, it is worthwhile having the cartridge in hand when ordering to ensure compatibility with the make and model of the hardware. 
Typically, ink cartridges run dry in the middle of printing an important document, or a homework project, and that generally happens late in the evening when the shops are closed.Now that’s the opportunity to let your fingers do the walking, order in bulk through an internet cartridge supplier, but how do you check if they are trustworthy?
Online suppliers are generally able to operate with lower overheads than traditional ‘brick and mortar’ suppliers, so their products are often discounted.However, always double-check the detail, says Steve Nash. from Earthink.A reputable supplier will back up all printer cartridge sales with a comprehensive product assurance programme, which should include a returns and exchange option should the product be faulty.Make sure the delivery times are suitable for your needs and check customer testimonials.To allay any concerns, talk to the company directly.
It is also important to ensure that the online ink cartridge supplier has the appropriate security features to protect confidential information.
Printer cartridges are a considerable expense.Making some small changes to your buying habits could result in savings worth more than small change.  Buy ink cartridges in bulk from a reputable online supplier, consider cheaper generic or compatible alternatives and save the environment at the same time.
