Brother printers have been popular since 1962 when the company formerly known for sewing machines branched out into the electronics market. They saw a booming opportunity to expand into the world of computer printers, and reaped the benefits; in the early 1960s, few people could have imagined how prevalent computers would be in modern offices.
Today, a computer printer is one of the most important investments a student or office worker can make in their future business. Few offices can function without a study, reliable printer—and it’s comforting to know that, aside from a few malfunctions here and there, they’re long-lasting and durable electronics that rarely need to be replaced. What does need to be replaced are the ink cartridges, which many students and office workers go through in a matter of weeks?
High Yield, Compatibility, and Cost-Effectiveness
Buying cartridges straight from the manufacturer can easily cut into your budget, and most Canadians choose to buy generic compatible brands rather than go straight to the source. It’s one of those simple life hacks that make running an office go a bit more smoothly, and saves you a lot of money in the long run.
Naturally, printer manufacturers don’t want you to know about this trick, but if you’re still buying brand-name, it might be time to learn about the slick new Canadian brand Moustache, developed by a former McGill University student who was frustrated by the outrageous cost of printing on a university campus where young adults didn’t have the budget for it.
Why Moustache?
Moustache is a sleek, modern, and memorable brand, but they’re not all smoke and mirrors. This all-Canadian brand of compatible black and colour ink cartridges provide consistent high yields compatible with all major Brother models, at rates as low as $49.99. Brother TN850 toner yields a whopping 8000 pages at a cost of six cents per page, and ships within 1-3 days for free.
If you’re in the market for a Brother DR820 drum, a compatible replacement is available from Moustache for at least $20 less than the list price. With a page yield of 30,000 and a shelf life of approximately two years, you won’t need to replace the drum for another few quarters and you can rest easy in the knowledge that it will arrive on your doorstep at no extra cost to you, whether you live in Vancouver or Halifax.
