How to extend the life of your toner cartridges
By Paula Carnogoy & Wanda Sowden

A toner cartridge is an expensive piece of equipment so you will want it to last as long as possible. There are a couple of things you can do to extend the life of your toner cartridge which will inevitably save you money.
One of the easiest ways to make your toner cartridge last longer is to adjust your printer settings. If you are using Windows go to Start and select Settings and then Printers and Faxes. This will vary depending on which version of Windows you are using but you should also be able to find it by searching around your Control Panel. Right click on your printer and select Printer Preferences. Again this will vary depending on your version of Windows.
Once you have found the printer preferences section, you will need to look for an option to print using the ‘draft’ option. Using draft will reduce the quality of your print but on the other hand it will save on toner which will extend the life of your toner cartridge. Depending on the type of business you are running, you probably will find that printing in draft is quite sufficient for most print jobs.
Printing in draft quality can extend the life of your toner cartridge, but if you can’t find an option to print in draft quality, then look for a similar option. Some printer preferences have a Quality/Speed option. If you select ‘Quality’ the print quality is obviously better, however it prints slower and of course uses more toner. If you select ‘Speed’ then the quality is less but the speed at which it prints is greater and the amount of toner it uses is less.
There is another simple way to extend the life of your toner cartridge. When your printer lets you know that you are out of toner don’t just replace the cartridge. Take out the toner cartridge and shake it from side to side a few times and then place it back in your printer. You want to distribute the toner evenly along the cartridge so make sure you give it a good shake. This has been known to extend the life of toner cartridges for up to a ream of paper. At the very least it will give you a window of time to purchase another cartridge.
