Machine Matching: getting the right toner and ink for your printer

September 2, 2009 in Fast Searching, Toner and Ink | No comments

This is a quick way to make sure the correct supplies are shipped for your printer, fax or multi-function machine.

Make sure you’ve got the correct model number for your machine.  There are sometimes a half dozen numbers on a printer so it can be frustrating to find the actual number.  It might help to see examples of the number you’re looking for.  For your brand just click  here.  If you’ve got a Brother or HP machine either of these links will take you directly to a list of model numbers:  Brother, HP  

Once you find the model number,click on it and you’ll be taken to a list of available supplies for that model.  (Discounted prices show up if you’re logged in.)  Please see our post on the 120% guarantee for compatible toners and inks.

Here’s a link to an interesting post by Tim Ferriss on the search for chairs.  You’re not going to find chairs of the $1400.00 variety at Stickies, but this is a good primer for those wondering what they can do about work related back pain.  (scroll down to “3 Key Findings.”)

Finding Our In-house Brand Post-it’s

August 21, 2009 in Fast Searching, Stickies Notes | 2 comments

Search engine technology is far from perfect.  We use about four or five of our competitors search engines on a regular basis and have discovered, they all can be frustrating…including ours.  

Post-it’s are expensive and you can save more than a few bucks by buying our in-house brand, Universal.  But how do you search for them?  We can’t call them Post-it’s for trademark purposes.  Different companies have different alternative names for their products.  On our site the key word to enter in the search box is “self-stick.”  This will yeild a variety of different sizes and colors of sticky or Post-it notes. 

Return to our site to find more information on the fastest way to search for cost-saving items.

120% Guarantee Makes You Fireproof!

August 11, 2009 in Toner and Ink | No comments

It’s risky buying compatable inks and toners.  But the right compatables can save your office hundreds and perhaps thousands of dollars a year.  Chances are you’ve already been burned by inferior toners and ink.  The important thing is to remember that not all compatables are the same, and then to find a brand that won’t mess up your machine, fail completely, and then force you to jump through hoops to get your money back.  

We’re very excited to have found a line of replacement toners and ink that won’t burn you or us!  We offer a 120% guarantee for all Innovera ink and toner replacements.  This means we replace any defective cartridge and write you a check for 20% of the purchase price.  Further, there’s no shipping charge.  All that’s required is that you save the packaging and give us a ring or drop us an email.  We’ll come by and pick it up.  So far we’ve never had a single defective Innovera toner or inkjet cartridge.

When you search for ink or toner using machine match, compatable Innovera toners and inks should show up below the brand name products.  You can also contact us and we’ll do the searching for you and add Innovera substitutes to your favorites list.

Top Two for Copy Paper

August 11, 2009 in Paper | No comments

There are hundreds of choices for copy paper.  Most of  the time you’re only searching for one.  We’ve narrowed your search down to just  two products–a high quality paper that gives the best looking prints, guards against jams and repairs, and increases the life of your machine, or an economy brand that offers consistant quality at a lower price.

We first took notice of Hammermill’s Fore MP paper when several customers told us “we have to get the Hammermill in the yellow wrapper” for such and such a machine because our machine will jam with any other paper.  That was our big clue that something must be different about Fore MP.  After looking up the factory specifications for this paper and comparing it to others the reason became clear.  We’ve never found a paper with better marks.  We’ve obtained the best pricing on this paper so we can offer it to our customers as a first choice.

Economy papers can be risky due to a lack of consistancy, sometimes even within the same package.  Universal Multipurpose Copy Paper is the economy-level paper we offer at prices competitive with the big box stores.
