Konica Minolta Celebrates it’s 150th Anniversary!

Featured

Konica Minolta celebrates its 150th anniversary this year, with hopes to soar as a growth company again.

The Japanese Company’s roots go back to the year 1873 when 25-year-old Rokusaburo Sugiura started selling photography materials after having his photo taken.

Konica Minolta’s New CEO Toshimitsu Taiko announced that the company’s 150th anniversary is a new start and opportunity to reinforce the company and strengthen it back up after the many challenges it experienced last year due to supply chain issues with lockdown in China and the impact the war in Ukraine continues to have on resources and energy prices.

Taiko’s mission is to accelerate Konica Minolta forward and restore the confidence of its employees as well as restoring trust of stakeholders, shareholders, investors and customers. The CEO’s tactic to achieve these goals is by addressing every single problem with honesty and sincerity.

Mr Taiko also expressed his heartfelt appreciation to everyone who supports Konica Minolta around the world. It’s been made clear that the company positions the huge milestone as a chance for further growth of people and society.

Konica Minolta’s mission to help the Homeless

Konica Minolta has also worked with charities to combat homelessness and help those in need. For example, for the second consecutive year, Konica Minolta works with Crisis at Christmas to help homeless. They also collaborated with the Aimar Foundation. They have managed to install print management software and printing devices at hotels and day centre sites across London. This helped provide access to vital information and documentation, to help them take the first step out of homelessness.

We fully support Konica Minolta’s actions to help decrease the homeless population. We also encourage our customers to buy Konica Minolta products and help support their cause. Buying our compatible products not only helps the struggling homeless, but also contributes to helping save our wonderful environment!

Understanding the difference between Original & Non-Original products.

Original cartridges are made by the printer manufacturers and are a branded product. This is why they are the highest purchase price to you. Major printer manufacturers have huge overheads and production costs, due to constant development of new technology and a changing market. These manufacturers use their brand name to maximise their profits, convincing the public that they should buy branded goods.

Compatible cartridges are made by a third party company who do not have such huge overheads, and are able to produce a great quality product, at a much lower cost.

Busting the myths on compatible cartridges!

There’s a great myth surrounding ink cartridges, with the public being led to believe that original products are far superior.

Perhaps the biggest concern about compatible products is whether they are reliable like original cartridges and produce good print results. The truth is, buying cheap cartridges from a less than reputable supplier, you’ll likely be buying an inferior product. However, if you buy good quality compatible cartridges from a trustworthy retailer, one that can offer you warranties and guarantees, then you’ll be getting a product that will rival an original cartridge and save you a packet into the bargain!

Our compatible cartridges are made to the highest ISO standards, which gives consumers full confidence that our products are safe, reliable and of exceptional quality.

PremiumCompatibles products come with a 6 month quality guarantee because we are completely confident of their quality, reliability and performance.

Let’s answer some of your questions about compatible cartridges.

If I use compatible products, will it invalidate the manufacturers warranty of my printer?

If your printer is under warranty from the manufacturer or retailer and your compatible / remanufactured cartridges are under warranty from us, then you are covered for all eventualities involving manufacturing faults or defects in either the printer or the cartridges.

What are compatible inks & toners made from?

Compatible ink & toner cartridges are mostly water based, and consist of pigments or dyes and granulated plastic to achieve the individual colours, as well as the black.  Print quality is extremely high, and it is almost impossible to tell any difference between an original or compatible.

Will compatible cartridges work in my printer?

We have compatibles for almost all models of printers, both old and new. If you buy own brand cartridges from us, you will be getting a product of the highest quality, built to the same specifications as the original equivalent, and if we don’t have it in stock, we will source it for you.

Are compatibles just original cartridges that have been drilled and filled with new ink or toner?

No, they are not. PremiumCompatibles products are made from only the best quality recycled components, as well as using new parts, to create a finished compatible cartridge.

Is a compatible cartridge able to print as many pages as an original?

Compatible BCI-10BKWhen you are purchasing a cartridge, you should always check the page yield.  This is displayed in the product description.  Many compatible products will either match or better the page yield of their original equivalents.

Are compatible cartridges ethically better to use?

Did you know that using third party ink will reduce your carbon footprint? For example, with the majority of compatibles being re-manufactured from original products, you are helping the environment and reducing the need for more plastic to be produced.

Are compatibles suitable for an old printer?

As long as you have taken care of your printer, compatibles are perfectly viable. The only consideration is the supply level – are the cartridges still available? We will always try and find you the right product for your machine.
