2. Online Printer Cartridges
• The market of online printer cartridges has recently
become very vast; particularly after the growth of online
businesses. There was time when a customer used to
simply go to a shop and buy a particular branded cartridge
which is compatible with the printer. Though bargain to
save money has always been a human nature, there were
not many questions of choice of different types of
cartridges. Now when you visit a website or speak to a
salesman, you are always asked for your options; ‘Are you
looking for OEM, remanufactured or compatible cartridges
Sir?’ I am sure you have wondered what the differences
between these cartridges are and what are the benefits of
buying these different cartridges? The explanation below
may help you make an informed decision.

3. Original (OEM) Cartridges
• Original cartridges, commonly known as OEM (Original
Equipment Manufactured), are branded cartridges
which are manufactured by the same company which
has manufactured the printers. Simple examples are;
cartridges manufactured by HP for HP printers,
cartridges manufactured by Epson for Epson printers and
so on. Original cartridges are supplied by all branded
manufacturers such as HP, Epson, Cannon, Brother, Dell,
Samsung, OKI, Konica Minolta, Lexmark, Xerox, etc.
• These cartridges are generally expensive and cost more
money than remanufactured and compatible cartridges.
Needless to say, they are original cartridges and give you
‘original’ results.

4. Compatible Cartridges
• Compatible cartridges –some manufacturers also call them
‘Generic Cartridges’- are also brand new cartridges but they are
not manufactured by the same company. They are rather
manufactured by a company other than the original
manufacturer of the printers.
Compatible cartridges are less expensive and help the
customers saving great deal of money on printing. The quality
of printing is known to be at same level or at least at same level
as original cartridges. Compatible cartridges come with
manufacturer’s guarantees to perform as good as original
cartridges they are ‘compatible’ with. Saving money, while
getting same result as original, is an attractive bargain while
choosing compatible cartridges. The numbers of pages
compatible cartridges print are known to be same or at least
same as original cartridges.

5. Remanufactured Cartridges
• Remanufactured, recycled and refilled are the terms
generally used interchangeably to describe the cartridges
which are (as name explains) not brand new. These
cartridges are factory cleaned and refilled to their
maximum capacity. For example, when your original HP
CB540A cartridge is empty, it will professionally be cleaned
in a factory in the UK and will be refilled with ink to be used
again. It is, however, important to remember the slight
difference between refilled and remanufactured/recycled
cartridges. ‘Refilled cartridges’ are simply cleaned and
refilled with ink by making a whole in original container and
putting new chips on it. ‘Remanufactured/recycled
cartridges’, on the other hand, are those where their
blades, drums and rollers are also changed making them
more efficient to the same level as original.

6. Remanufactured Cartridges
• The quality of printing and the pages these recycled and
refilled toner cartridge will print are same or at least same as
original; however the cost saving is real bargain while buying
a remanufactured cartridges. You will be able to almost halve
the cost of your printing when you chose to buy
remanufactured cartridges when you calculate the cost per
page. However, it is very important that you buy recycled
cartridges from a store like www.ebargainshop.co.uk which
sells these cartridges with full guarantees.
• Another big advantage of buying remanufactured cartridges is
that while saving huge money you will also help the
environment because this will save the disposals of the
original and compatible cartridges where the millions of
pounds of cartridges tossed away to pollute the environment
and overflow the already overflowing land fields.

7. What about Printer Warranty?
• Though the manufactures threaten to void your printer warranties if
you use compatible and remanufactured cartridges, it is illegal for
them to do so when you use refilled and recycled cartridges. You can
buy remanufactured and refilled cartridges with complete piece of
mind because the manufacturers cannot void your warranty for
simply using the refilled and remanufactured cartridges. They may,
however, cancel your warranty for using compatible cartridges. So it
is advisable to use caution while using ‘compatible cartridge’ if you
are under warranty and unsure of the results.
• You may be told that your warranty could be void if the damage to
your printer is attributable to the recycled cartridge you use. Please
note that the cartridge inks do not touch any part of the printer
except the cartridge and print head. So you can now challenge the
manufacturers who do not want you to use cost effective way of
printing. Remember! Your economical way of printing is a ‘green-way’
of printing.
