World Book Day 2023

Featured

This Thursday (2nd March) is World Book Day!

What is World Book Day and When Is It Celebrated?

World Book Day is a charity event held every year in the UK and Ireland on the first Thursday in March. Every single full-time student is gifted a voucher to spend on books. The first celebrations of World Book Day were held in 1998.

The UK World Book Day has actually been changed to the first Thursday in March to celebrate it before the Easter Holidays and to avoid problems with St. George’s Day Celebrations. World Book Day is also celebrated on 23rd April (in India).

World Book Day Aims

The Day aims to encourage and increase the number of young people reading. A decreasing number of people are reading books, especially with the expansion and development of modern technology, social media and less time spent reading, thinking and concentrating on literature, and more time focusing on digital content. Reading has however switched to things like audiobooks and digital copies of books, which also has its positives. For example, digital copies of different texts are more environmentally friendly.

World Book Day and reading in general is very important in the development of the mind, imagination and knowledge. Lessons can be learned from different books. Literature has also influenced many people and inventions. In today’s world we underestimate reading and its importance.

Epson’s Environmental Awareness and Eco-Printing!

Featured

As many people may know, printing has historically not been the friendliest to Earth’s environment. However, in recent years, the attention given to our planet’s environment has largely increased like never before and affected the printing industry, as well as other industries. More and more companies and businesses are changing into sustainable, eco-friendly firms. New tactics and ways are being used all the time to make even a small difference and reverse the effects climate change has on our environment, as well as obeying new laws and regulations introduced to help the climate (such as Environmental Laws in the EU).

Pollution

These changes made by companies are not for nothing. Not only does it save the environment, but can also save quite a bit of money. One huge printing company which brings attention to the environmental issues and is forming into a sustainable and Carbon Neutral business is Epson. The Japanese company is in the lead when it comes to its eco-transformation. Epson aims to be carbon negative and “underground resource-free” by 2050, which means that resources harmful to the environment will not be used in manufacturing processes. Epson also has other initiatives to support the environment. The Company is extremely committed to its environmental goals. They manage to find new ways to form their company to suit the environment while keeping prices affordable and users happy!

Environmentally Friendly Eco-Products

Epson’s 2050 milestone is a huge contribution towards the environment. There is another step they want to take before that, though. By 2030 Epson aims to invest around £600 million into changes in the company to aid the environment.

What’s the Difference? Compatible vs Original Ink/Toner Cartridges (Manufacturers are hiding this from you!)

Featured

What's the difference between Compatibles and OEM? What are Manufacturers hiding from You?

Tricks used by Manufacturers to force Original Product buying

Original ink cartridges and toners are priced so extortionately that they are almost impossible to afford. The cost of an original could go up to 300% times the price of a compatible. While we remain brainwashed by original manufacturers that there are no viable alternatives/options, we give our money purchasing originals with sinking hearts.

But, what if I told you we have been misinformed and have become prey to commercialism and consumerism is the way out? That is, putting customers first should come before making a profit, and any company that understands that in the digital age our consumers are becoming more and more informed would be wise to adopt this. Not only on the basis of corporate social responsibility but also human ethics. Why should anyone pay so much more for guaranteed similar print quality?

PremiumCompatibles Products

This is precisely what we at PremiumCompatibles think. We’re aware of messages printers show when using compatible ink and slight differences in final print quality compared to originals. We are simply saying that the pros far outweigh the cons of using compatible cartridges and toners. If you are a professional designer however, we might recommend the original depending on what you are printing. But on the whole, compatibles not only save money but also sometimes exceed in print quality.

Compatibles also usually contain a lot more ink than the originals and are designed to perform as well as or better that original cartridges. Therefore, they have better overall value than original ink cartridges and toner.

On the internet however there is an abundance of information certifying that originals are far better. This isn’t only not always true. It confirms original manufacturers went the extra mile to ensure brand identity is maintained so they can continue extortionate charging. It’s alright if you require an original but you should also be aware there are alternative options on the market. Not only low cost options, but also premium remanufactured products are available which are remanufactured original cartridges that have had parts replaced to ensure the utmost reliability. At PremiumCompatibles we check and test our products so that they meet the highest standards. Quality is guaranteed.

In conclusion, though there is not much difference in quality, switching to compatibles makes a huge difference to your wallet!

Save money by buying remanufactured ink and toner cartridges.
