Anyone with an inkjet printer reaches this dilemma at one point or another – original or compatible. The dilemma is usually accompanied by shock due to the ridiculously high prices of original inkjet cartridges. Soon enough you realize that they actually cost more than the printer itself. Now, you can save a heck of a lot of money by using compatible cartridges but hmm… are they safe in my printer? Will they give good print results?
Well, if you were in the same situation (and I’m willing to bet you were), all I can do is give you my two cents on the matter. In my opinion – definitely go with compatibles. I actually go with compatible ink cartridges out of the principle of the matter. You see, there is no real reason for ink cartridges to cost so much and the fact that such great quality compatibles are available for so much less just proves this.
So why do the manufacturers charge so much for original cartridges? Well it all breaks down to their marketing strategy. You see, there is a reason why your printer cost less than the ink – they do this to get you to buy their printers even at the cost of not profiting off the sale. They figure they will catch you with the cartridges and make more than enough to cover the cost of the printer. Well, I don’t like these kinds of games. If they don’t want me to buy compatibles, simply lower the price of originals, I won’t mind paying more for the printer itself.
