Lexmark's new ink cartridge program rewards customers with free cartridges

How it Works

Customers buy five ink cartridges from Lexmarkstore.com within a 12-month period, and they get one ink cartridge free.

In addition, after they return five empty Lexmark ink cartridges to Lexmark within a 12-month period, they can get a second ink cartridge free. You need to join into the Lexmark Rewards Program to receive the free cartridges.

Therefore, customers are eligible for two free cartridges for every five bought online and returned to Lexmark.

This program applies to almost all Lexmark branded inkjet cartridges(2).


FAQ

May I return eligible inkjet cartridges purchased any place other than LexmarkStore.com?

Yes. As long as it is a genuine, eligible Lexmark cartridge, it doesn't matter where you bought it—just return it in the personalized Lexmark Rewards return envelope (Note: Lexmark No. 2 and Lexmark No. 3 cartridges are not eligible).

Can I save even more ?

Save even more by purchasing Remanufactured Cartridge(s) and returning them to Lexmark under the program. We haven't found any reason why you couldn't return original remanufactured Lexmark cartridges under this program.

Terms and Conditions

Third Party Inkjet Cartridge Product Reliability and Warranty

Satisfaction Guarantee
Most third party products offer expiry dates of 3 years from the date of manufacture. Longer than many people keep their printers. Although most Third Party manufacturers only offer 30-90 days of satisfaction guarantee it is not because they experience a higher failure rate thereafter but simply so that they do not have to keep inordanite amounts of funds reserved for futre potential claims.

Warranty

Most companies set aside x # of $ for warranty purposes and in effect it would not make sense for them to carry forward multiple years of sales percentages for the product. Our statistics shows less than 1 in x thousands of cartridges fails, and most of these failures are attributable to user related or printer equipment problems. Similarily 30-90 days is sufficient to allow for new clients to properly evaluate their satisfaction levels with the product.

We have never refused a warranty claim for any failed product in the company history for any reason (attributable to the product, or delivery) regardless of date. I am sure not all companies can attest to that claim.

Note: We review our suppliers and track failure rates extensively. We routinely test products from various manufacturers and select only those products offering the highest overall reiliability.

Not all inkjet Cartridges are made the same
Some 3rd party manufacturers have lesser quality ink formulas that can dry out resulting in clogged heads and premature replacement of inkjet cartridges. (See our earlier article on Npyrol). Similarily, the manufacture of the cartridge itself will determine its fit within the printer and its overall seal. Thirdly many cartridges are refillable by using a cartridge resetter. Not all Third Party manufacturers use chips that support being reset.How can you as the end user determine who makes the best inkjet cartridge?

Manufacturers Warranty
No inkjet manufacturer will void their warrany for their printer simply because you use 3rd party inkjet products (Its illegal)

What products have the highest failure rates
Something that none of the inkjet manufactures will ever tell you or publish you can find out here.

Worst

The 3rd party market for Lexmark Remanufactured cartridges definately offers the lowest reliability. As Dell uses Lexmark manufactured products (To their Specification) we'll let you decide where they stand.

Better

HP has a well established market and proven technology. We'll give them a passing grade and you can be confident with the industries re-manufactured products. Again not all remanufactured products are put through the same testing /cleaning prior to being refilled so beware of extreemenly low cost, or fly by night companies.

Best

Canon and Epson compatible cartridges are by far the best overall third party products on the market. Due to their simpler design (No Heads) there is less to fail. They are the overall winner in any customer satisfaction survey, and we wouldn't hesitate to promote them to anyone.
