Printers see a lot of traffic day-in and day-out. Whether you’re printing out a single sided resume or a 500 page media brief, it’s pretty necessary to rely on your printer. So when you go to print and see “ink low” or an error message, it’s not good. The next shipment of ink isn’t coming for another week and you honestly have no idea where to start fixing this error message.
Here are some of the biggest mistakes by users that can cause these jams:
- Printing in color needlessly
- Printing in high quality mode every time
- Only ever printing single-sided
- Using too much color, just because it looks cool
- Using low resolutions (and needing to re-print)
- Printing 5 extra copies cause the first one took too long
- Accidentally printing 20 copies instead of 2
How do you go about stopping these bad habits from happening?
