Printing on Empty
Every day New consumers contemplate making the switch
from OEM to remanufactured. They may be attracted to
the cost savings and environmental benefits but have
trepidation about using something with which they have
no experience. In this case, ignorance is not bliss.
By managing customer expectations and knowledgeably
responding to questions and concerns, inkjet
remanufacturers can create an environment that supports
long-term, satisfactory, profitable business relationships.
Q: Is it OK to keep printing when my cartridge is
showing signs of running out of ink?
A: Like the gas tank in your car, don't let the tank
run empty! Ink helps keep the resistors from overheating.
Printing with an empty cartridge can cause irreparable
heat damage to the resistors. With tri-color cartridges,
this applies even if only one of the colors runs out.
You risk damaging the cartridge if you continue to use
it with one tank empty.
