Need source for ink cartridge for Konica Minolta PagePro 1350W
Great printer, black and white only, does volume printing but local stores no longer sell them and I don't have a credit card to order them on-line. Ideas?
You can also pay on Amazon from a checking account via ACH, or so they say. http://www.amazon.com/gp/help/customer/display.html?nodeId=15399401
Amazon lists a factory cartridge should knock-offs not appeal to you. http://www.amazon.com/Minolta-1710566-001-Cartridge-PagePro-Printer/dp/B0000Y7W84
Can try Cartridge World as well. They may have a store near you, and they refill cartridges for tons of printers. I was able to refill my vintage HP LaserJet 4 there.
Let me second the "refill" suggestion. Laser printers are a HUGE waste as the components in toner cartridges are capable of numerous refills before quality will suffer.
It ain't rocket science-do it yourself-but if you don't want to mess with it, find a cartridge world or similar business...
Ah, Cartridge World. I remember spotting a sign announcing the grand opening of a CW store. Imagine my disappointment when I realized it just printer cartridges.
re: "Some of the cheaper printers out there are less expensive than ink refills, and they come with ink!!!"
Those printers usually come with starter cartridges holding less ink than the refill packages. This strategy really only make sense if you print so infrequently that the ink dries up before you can use it all.

This will be your cheapest bet-

And they take checks.
Cheers.
Mail Order with US Postal money orders will work. Also search YouTube for refill it yourself instructions.

Prepaid credit card?? There's no risk, and untrackable...
I have a friend who doesn't buy ink. He just goes and buys a whole new printer.

Counterintuitive, I know, but true.

Trackable but anonymous (for now)there now exists the ability to monitor any transaction or a string of transactions anywhere anytime any account.
Fusion
Or PayPal will work from your bank account.
Try LaserMonks- the seem to have original and remanufactured ink cartriges for just about anything. Google it.
It's where I get my ink.
There's a dealer for your printer nearby:
Ameri-tek
2461 Old Springville Road
Birmingham, AL 35215
Phone: 205-856-9925
Fax: 205-856-3694
Email: dfowler@alabamacopier.com
They still list your printer for sale on their website, so they should have toner for it as well.

I bought a toner refill kit on ebay. It came with a bottle of toner and a replacement counter IC board for around $15. Worked out great.
Seem pretty simple to me... find a deal you like on-line, get a friend with a credit/debit card to order them and give him the cash...
Toners still yeild more prints per refill. Its still cheap in the long run
