Postage Meter Inks now available
July 6,2010Brent Natzke
Yep, we fell into the trap as well, not finding the time to keep you updated on what is going on at ink4mail.com through our blog. Well, based on the success we've had with the Color Labs Ink Cartridges, we've been busy. We've added the ColorLabs line of compatible Postage Meter Inks. These inks are compatible with postage meters from Pitney Bowes, Neopost and Hasler. Please take the opportunity to try them, and let us know about your successes.
Also, if you are trying out a new paper stock and are unsure what ink works best, please send us some sample stock, and we will work with our suppliers to find you the ink that works best for your situation.
Thanks for your continued support and loyalty to ink4mail.com
Closing 2009, Heading to 2010...
December 9,2009Brent Natzke
I would like to take this opportunity to thank all of our loyal customers for the business you have sent our way. You have enthusiastically recommended our service to your colleagues, and we genuinely appreciate your efforts on our behalf. As 2009 draws to a close, we are taking some time to develop some new ideas to launch in 2010. One idea under consideration is the development of a mobile site for ordering from ink4mail.com.
What kind of interest is there in having a method to order your ink supplies from your phone? How many of your production or ordering people have access to an internet enabled phone? With our unique position of being web developers as well as ink suppliers, we have a unique opportunity to provide you once again with cutting edge service. Let us know what you think.
Reliability vs. Price Savings...
October 28,2009Brent Natzke
What is the cost of downtime, time spent cleaning a machine, or restarting a cartridge, when the addressing line is down? That is the common thread in any question regarding whether to use OEM Inks from HP, or use remanufactured inks from ColorLabs and others. It doesn't take much down time when you're generating revenue @ $200/hr of addressing to make up for the extra cost of an OEM Cartridge vs remanufactured.
The key question becomes how much different is the failure rate in the real world.
It has been our experience that the remanufactured cartridges have been improving consistently in lowering failure rates, compared to what they were 3 to 5 years ago, but we'd like to get more input from you.
Have you looked at failure rates on each type of cartridge? If so, let us know your experience. We'll try to summarize and get any results out that we receive, to help you make a real world decision about using remanufactured cartridges.

In so many areas, it is said that communication is the key. Well that is certainly the case in business, and quite frankly, we haven't done as good a job as we should, so that is much of the reason for the new "blog" tab on the ink4mail.com website. We hear interesting and useful stories from our customers and pick up tips and tricks, and would like to share them with you to help you in your day to day efforts.
We would also like to hear from you!! Please send us your comments / questions / tips / tricks or topics you would like us to discuss through our contact form, and we'll respond as best we can.
Our first big announcement is that recycling is now available again. We've got a new page of information under our FAQ tab that discusses our new recycling program. Please take advantage of it and earn a little bit of cash back for your empties.
