The Benefits of Printers Using Individual Ink Cartridges
Individual cartridges are not a new phenomenon to hit the printing world; in fact, they have been around for years.
HP was one of the first companies to have separate color cartridges for their printers, such as the early Designjet series and wide format printers. This system worked well but required a large printer to hold the cartridges, that were huge in comparison to what are used today.
Although HP has continued to manufacture this type of printer, they have been traditionally best suited for special applications or heavy printing. Individual ink cartridges were not to be found as an option in personal inkjet printers until 2001. Epson came out with the C80, and about the same time Canon came out with printers like the BJC- 3000 series.
This new, separate color ink cartridge system was a real innovation for small offices and home use. The printer’s footprint was equivalent to other contemporary 2-cartridge printers (1 black cartridge and 1 color cartridge) but had the advantages of the older large printers that used separate color cartridges
One of the best aspects of having separate inkjet cartridges in your printer is being able to replace a single color when it is empty instead of having to replace all colors. If you print multiple copies of the same photo or image, you’ll most likely use more of one color. This makes individual cartridges especially economical.
All in one or “tri-color” cartridges usually contain Cyan, Magenta and Yellow. Some cartridges also have Light Cyan and Light Magenta for a total of 6 possible colors in one single cartridge. The inks are not used at equal rates, so inevitably you will run out of one color (usually yellow) before the others, which renders the entire cartridge unusable. A lot of usable ink gets thrown out, which is a waste of money when you consider the cost per milliliter of ink.
Another benefit to individual color tanks is that they are generally larger capacity ink volumes. You have more of each color in the printer at a time, so they will last longer and you’ll spend less time changing cartridges.
In case you need more justification for using an Epson or Canon printer with individual tanks, the individual compatible cartridges are inexpensive, ranging from $4.87 – $6.87 each.
