How to handle Low Ink Message on Reman inks
If you notice that the ink gauge displays low or no ink level, DO NOT be alarmed. This is very common because you are using a remanufactured inkjet. The ink gauge on your printer will no longer read the ink levels correctly because it does not recognize your cartridge as “new”. There is no way to reset this gauge, but this message can be bypassed easily when necessary and will not affect your printing performance.
Keep in mind that the ink gauges on printers only serve as an ESTIMATE of how much ink may be remaining in the cartridge.
To continue printing, press and hold the stop/reset button or the resume button for 10 seconds. Please consult your printer’s user manual if you are not sure which button to press.

Printforever puts Kodak’s Claim to the test.
‘Printervention: Stop overpaying for printer ink today!’
You may have seen recent ads by Kodak claiming low priced ink.
This article will compare it to HP’s #940 ink cartridges.
Staples price for the hi-capacity Kodak 10XL (8237216) Black Ink Cartridge, High Yield is $16.99 claiming a page yield of 770 pages. This yields 2.27 cents per page.
The HP black #940 sells for $25.99 for 1000 page nominal capacity or 2.6 cents per page. The black #940XL sells for $35.99 for 2200 pages or 1.6 cents per page.
The Kodak hi capacity black cartridge compares well with the HP starter cartridge it comes up well short of the HP hi capacity cartridge.
Staples price for Kodak 10C (8946501) Color Ink Cartridge is $17.99 for a yield of 420 pages. This yields 4.28 cents per page for three colors.
The #940 colors sell for $19.99 for 900 pages which rates at 2.2 cents per page. The color # 940XLs sell for $25.99 for 1400 pages or 1.8 cents per page.
Kodak does not make a hi capacity color cartridge, however, the regular capacity cartridges cost more than the HP ‘starter’ cartridges and much more than the HP hi capacity #940’ cartridges.

Starter cartridge ploy backfires on HP color laser printer
HP has rendered the purchase of its mid range color laser printer the CP 3025 unjustifiable with its starter cartridge
Purchasing a new CP 3025 printer costs $649.00 plus a full set of replacement cartridges at $928.96 totals1627.00 This combination yields 8.000 pages black and 10,000 pages of color printing. This reduced toner capacity is a result of the low capacity ‘starter’ cartridges supplied with the CP 3025.
The more robust 4025 printer costs $999.00 and comes with one set of full toner cartridges with printing capacity for 8,500 pages black and 11,000 pages of color printing.
Unless the customer plans on doing less than 3,000 pages of printing on his new color laser printer he cannot justify the additional expense for the lighter duty printer. Furthermore any subsequent toner purchases move the advantage further in favor of the CP 4025.
The 4025 is faster at 35 ppm vs 31 ppm for the 3025. and has 256 mb memory vs 512 mb for the 4025. The CP 4025 is a more robust printer with a monthly duty cycle of 100,000 pages vs 75,000 for the CP 3025.
