The days of high priced ink cartridges are a thing of the past. With improved production mechanisms and lower overheads companys can offer ink cartridges for a fraction of their previously listed prices.

When you wish to purchase a cheap ink cartridge it is important to have the ink cartridge number. You can get this by removing your cartridge and looking at its back normally for a 3 digit number.

If you can't find your ink cartridge number you can just as easily put your printer model number and have the website list down the available cartridges that will work for that particula printer.

Compatibility with your printer is essential to having good printing quality. if you use a cartridge that isn't compatible with your printer it will not print at all. if it does print the quality will not be up to the standard.

As mentioned above, ink cartridge prices are now at a minimum. There are however some websites that offer even more discounts as they buy directly from manufacturers. We have listed one at the bottom that has relatively lower prices.

Some websites show a very discounted price but end up charging you double as they include "tax" as a part of the cost. Make sure you take account of that.

Some online cartridge retailers also offer a money back guarantee should your cartridge fail to work. This means you do not need to worry about losing your money if your cartridge doesn't work well.

Make sure you do your research well and go for a cartridge that has both a low price and the highest of quality.
