Submitted by Michaela McMellan on Tue, 09/15/2020 - 09:00

Toner is an essential part of owning a copier/printer. No matter the reason for purchase (personal, business, school), you’re going to need to purchase toner, which can be expensive.  

The toner industry has historically made you choose between affordable or quality toner. 

If you opt for high-quality OEM (original equipment manufacturer) toner, which most businesses need, the price can add up. 

However, opting for inexpensive drill and fill toners lead to ink spills, hazardous materials, and repeated service repairs.

Submitted by Karla Metzler on Thu, 09/10/2020 - 09:00

Many people are not aware or educated on the different types of toners available for copiers/printers and this often leads them to purchase the cheapest toner available. 

Buying the cheapest toner possible often results in problems such as poor print quality or spilled ink. Ink spillage, and other issues caused by cheap toner, can cause damage to the machine, which is a costly repair.  

Cheaper toner often uses banned or hazardous materials such as plastic to cut costs. These toxins can cause problems for the machine and the users.
