Not long ago, the comparison of operating costs laser and inkjet printers are not in favor of the latter - refilling the toner cartridge or the complete replacement of its much cheaper cost the replacement ink cartridges.And the possibility of refilling ink to a certain point do not think, at least on a professional level - it was destiny "kulibinyh", and carried out these operations on their own risk and ended not always and not all successful - printheads often outfailure.Although it is, of course, it depends on the experience and the level of skill of the owner of the printer ... But then the situation has changed dramatically, the market of consumables for ink jet printing has ceased to be a monopoly - there were major manufacturers offering albeit unoriginal, but very high quality ink.And after the ink appeared more interesting things - refillable cartridges, continuous ink supply system.But what should normally be the owner of a conventional home inkjet printer?
It all depends on the volume of printing.Although, of course, we must take into account not only the needs, but also opportunities - for example, if the CISS for Canon MFP in Krasnodar or other large settlement can still be found, then the USC, especially for new printer models, you may experience some problems.But back to the volume ... Studies have shown that it makes sense to put the CISS in the case of printing really intense - when the printer is coming off a week from more than 400 documents, printed in color, and about a hundred full-color photographs in the format A4.Then she herself really lives, but if you print a few and rare, it is better to do the USC as CISS - a piece in the installation is quite complicated, moreover, given the fierce resistance to the use of non-original consumables from the printer manufacturers, sometimes requiring significant changes to theconstruction of the device.
But if you really have to print a lot, the CISS is definitely more profitable.Besides, it also prolongs the life of the printer - all the same cartridges to withdraw is not necessary or contact groups of chips or the print head at the same time did not suffer (it is no secret that most of the problems with this site there was in the process of dismantlingand installing the ink tank back).By the way, according to some studies (although, for obvious reasons, they had informal) when installing the CISS for office printers inkjet device can be even more profitable than the laser.
