Does use of Artisan Ink void my printer's warranty?
Using our compatible ink and toner
products does not void your printer warranty! Your existing printer warranty
is still in effect when you use our compatible solid ink or color toner cartridge
products. Consumers are often told by the printer manufacturer's technicians
or salespeople that using non-brand supplies will "void" their warranty. This
is not true and may be a violation of Federal Trade laws if enforced by the printer
manufacturer.
Click here for details on the Magnusson-Moss Warranty Improvement Act and
exercise your right to choose compatible supplies! However, the manufacturer
may not honor your warranty if it can be proven that the compatible products are
actually directly responsible for your printer malfunction. Therefore,
we offer our own warranty for our solid ink so that you can
confidently use our products in your printer, knowing that we stand 100% behind
these products in the event of any ink-related problems.
How do Artisan inks compare to Xerox®ColorStix®? Color output? Our cyan, magenta, yellow, and black Artisan Inks produce
colors essentially identical to the colors obtained from Xerox®-brand ColorStix®. Please
note that as the liquid ink cools and solidifies during the manufacturing process,
settling sometimes occurs in the blocks of ink - these in no way affect the
performance of our ink. Our ink sticks are also shaped differently than ColorStix®
due to design patents held by Xerox Corp. Page-yield? Page-yields are comparable to Xerox® ColorStix®. You
can expect page yields of approx. 1100-1400 pages per ink stick (depending
on printer model) for pages which are mostly text with small color graphics. Of
course, your yield will vary depending upon print subject (full-page photographs
use much more ink than simple text reports, for example).
Printing labels
Make sure that only good-quality (e.g., Avery) LASER labels are used in Phaser
solid-ink and laser printers. Use of INKJET labels can jam and cause serious
damage to your printer!
