This is always a minefield. What printer do I choose? Do I look at a subscription service? 

Hopefully today we can give you the information required to make an informed choice! Lets start with Subscription services....

Certain manufacturers offer a monthly sub service lets use a example. 100 PAGES for £4.49 per month, That works out at £0.04 per page. The equivalent XL remanufactured ink costs £16.99 and produces 800 pages at 5% this works out at £0.02 per page 50% cheaper and results that are as good as the OEM product.

Benefits of subscription services? 

1. Ease of use.
2. Once the service is set up very little input needed.
3. Perceived cost benefits

Negative aspects of subscription services?

1. High Cost.
2. Once you reach your limit you need to upgrade the service or wait until the end of the month.
3. High CO2 footprint due to the low capacity of cartridges (& Increased shipment frequency requirement)
