subject: The Large Format Ink Jet Printer: Heaven! [print this page] So can someone tell the rest of the class why ink jet printer ink is so wildly expensive, because there is a line of people just waiting for THAT answer!!!
Need proof? Head on over to a little site called Google and type in "large format ink jet printer" and just look at the massive amounts of competition for that keyword and then look to see that there is a tiny amount of results for that search.
Next you go home, hook it up, download the software system and that's when they got you. From this point on, that is your printer and you need to feed it a steady diet of ink, lots of ink, sick amounts of ink. At first if you're like me, you get your ink were you bought your computer, right? I mean, Best Buy, Staples or any of the big box stores. You're thinking, I got my computer there, why not get the inks there. Wrong answer, you can save so much money by ordering your inks online. Simply typing in " Inks on line" or any variation of that, you will be sent to a never ending universe of "cheap ink this" or "low cost inks online, whatever" So shop around, some don't really offer much savings but it's still more convenient than trekking to the nearest strip mall, finding a parking space and asking some guy named " skippy' "where do you keep your printer inks?"
Make 100% sure you have the right brand name and product number when you head in to get your ink jet ink...it's a wonder to the rest of the planet that these things are not yet standardized in size, but they are not.
Take the time to get your large format ink jet printer and the printer ink you need for it at the lowest prices you can.
So please take the time to shop online, believe me, you will save money and time down the road. Now it's time for me to hit print.
