There are many vendors who would come to your office giving you proposals for deploying their printers and shall ask you to buy their own cartridges at a fixed price.
In this case, you are tied with those vendors who are selling you cheap Chinese cartridges or any other brand which he is proposing.
The question that arises is, how those vendors are going to recover their cost of assets deployed at your place.
When you buy your printer with or without a cartridge, it might seem to be cheaper to you at that moment but later it will create a hole in your pocket. Because when you will need and buy a new cartridge, the vendor will higher the price of that cartridge to recover the cost of the printer which he had sold you earlier.
It is obvious that their cost will get recovered from the cartridges they sell you. That means, as a customer you are paying extra money to help him recover his extra cost.
Let us discuss another scenario where a company is having 10 to 50 employees and is located at one or two locations. The best thing for this medium-scale company is to buy its own brand or own type of printer.
When you are buying your brand of printers:
- You will be able to claim depreciation.
- You will be able to buy cartridges at an acceptable cost.
- You will not pay any extra cost for recovering the extra cost of the vendors.
- You have a chance to buy Indian Made Compatible Cartridges.
- Which creates jobs in India
- Supports local business/ economy
- You will be able to buy printers may be at a little extra cost but he will support you with other spare parts free of cost.
When you will buy your own brand of Printer, you will be able to buy own brand of cartridge too. There are three benefits in buy buying own brand of cartridge. They are:
- Owning a brand of cartridge will give you the same quality and yield. The cartridge which we have selected for our own brand is manufactured in the same careful way as the original cartridge manufacturers.
- Own brand of the cartridge is affordable. The cartridge consists of parts such as a plastic casing, chip, and toner powder. These parts are reused and refilled they are sold cheaper. On the other hand, the original cartridge is partially filled because of which they do not last long and you will have to change them again and again.
- Own brand of cartridges is fully factory tested. Although these cartridges come from different manufacturers, they are fully factory-tested, have complete refilling as per the requirement, and work in the same way as the original one.
