The Care and Feeding of Your Copier or Printer

How do we minimize the cost of the care and feeding of our copiers and printers?

Minimize maintenance, power, toner and management – the ongoing costs of running a printer with an eco-friendly design. The principal is simple: the fewer components you use, the lower your costs and the less you have to throw away.

How to Shake Your Toner to Save Toner

Mark Scott from Carbon Copy

When running out of toner, pull it out shake and put it back, right? Well, there is more.

Image result for gas tank on a hillLook on the bottom side, front, middle, or back. There is a little orifice where the toner comes out. If the last shake is away from that orifice, you are definitely out of toner, just like your gas tank on a hill.

It is not so much the shaking, but the last shake should leave the toner over that orifice.

The same with your colors – look at your supply levels. Let’s say the yellow indicator is showing empty on the front of the machine – shake to the center, put it back in and it will show 10-15% left!

Carbon Copy’s toner is more economical that anywhere, but there is a way to make it go longer, by maybe even a week!
