Help Your Schoolhouse Rock – How to be a Superstar Parent

Did you know that teachers are rarely given stipends to purchase classroom essentials? Each pencil box, whiteboard marker, and even soap bottle are out-of-pocket expenses that can stress an already overworked and weary teacher. Couple that with dealing with kids all day, and you can imagine the toll it takes for teachers to keep their classrooms running efficiently. As a parent, you may take great joy in getting a break from your little gremlins for eight hours a day. But your teachers can also use some help from the community to support your child’s learning. Here are some simple ways to stand out from the crowd as a parent and help your local school community.

Whether your kids are in high school or kindergarten, reliable transportation to and from school is a necessity. Some kids may benefit from being near a school bus zone, while others must either walk or rely on their busy parents to drop them off and pick them up. To help you and your fellow parents out, try creating a community Facebook group or large group chat for ridesharing purposes. Different parents can take shifts and hold each other accountable to ensure all the kids get to and from school safely at a fraction of the cost of gas. If they walk to school and you are worried about their safety, try offering to be a chaperone to accompany them on their walks. Who knows, participating in a parent group chat may introduce you to some new friends in your neighborhood!

Kids come first, but your kids’ teachers need some helping hands. Even if they bought all the necessary equipment, many other day-to-day items are still required. One of the simplest ways you can help out is to engage in your school’s education system and try taking care of some of the massive amounts of printing. From worksheets to syllabi, your child takes home a ton of paper. Consider AllStuff’s offering of printers designed with families in mind, like our Konica Minolta Bizhub 4000I, which is quiet, effective, and has a small footprint that fits anywhere in your home. What if your child’s teacher doesn’t need more help printing? Not a problem! AllStuff also offers valuable ink and toner cartridges. Not only do we offer promotions across all our products, but we also provide free shipping on any order over $50! These promotions make buying a breeze and ease the strain on your school’s slim finances.

Teachers will always be the backbone of our education system. Without them, schools and other valuable areas for education would be obsolete. As a parent, it is up to you to decide how much you want to be involved with your child’s curriculum. However, working with their teachers can open the door to an easier time for your kid and their hard-working teachers. Grab a coffee with one of the teachers and get them the help they deserve with one of AllStuff’s affordable and effective products.

Prepping for the Holidays – What Should You Bring on a Big International Trip?

With travel restrictions lessening worldwide, tons of exciting holidays are coming up that are available once again. If you are traveling outside of the U.S., it is imperative to keep a to-do list of what to bring along. Whether your destination is a fancy ski resort in Switzerland or a chilly island excursion in Japan, some standard printed documents are necessary for any international trip.

Your first and most important item should be your passport. Regardless of where you are traveling, it goes without saying that having your passport is the only official way foreign entities can identify your citizenship. To be doubly careful, print out a small wallet-size version of your passport in order to prevent any unnecessary airport headaches. United States Embassies usually require your passport and a secondary form of identification to provide any substantial help if serious misfortune strikes your trip.

If you don’t have a color printer, consider our price-friendly options here for assistance with your travel documents.

With the surprising number of printed documents needed, your travel plans could stop cold if you don’t have easy access to a printer. Luckily, AllStuff has a wide variety of printers that are perfectly suited for both small yet important tasks such as passport printing or larger tasks for offices and schools. If you’re in need of a printer suited for usage at home, check out our Kyocera printers that fit perfectly on a home office desk. These printers produce crisp and clear colors without any streaks or smudging, making them ideal for printing out documents requiring precision like your passport.

To err on the side of caution, printing in color is usually preferred to black and white when it comes to your passport. But if monochrome, standard pages are in your future, rely on our Konica Minolta black-and-white printers to achieve high-quality prints that won’t break the bank. Take advantage of our deals and get the most out of our printers with free shipping for orders over $50.00.

The following items, which are intangible but equally important, include a data plan/SIM card pertaining to the country you’re traveling to, a downloaded map on either Google maps or your standard online map of the locations you plan on visiting, and approval from your bank for foreign transactions. All three of these are vital for ensuring your trip runs smoothly. Most SIM cards are available at airports worldwide, but clearing a plan with your carrier prior to your trip is the best way to guarantee cell phone access. Downloading your travel destinations on your preferred navigation app is important to do as an application like Google maps can be quite slow to load if your connection is bad. The last thing you want to happen is to be stranded on a road with no way of knowing where to go because your phone cannot load a map. Finally, your bank may charge you or even outright decline credit card purchases if they believe a purchase is fraudulent since you are outside your home country. Make sure to inform your bank at least a week prior to your trip to give the bank time to process your request.

Finally, make sure you have some form of physical currency. If everything goes wrong, you should have a healthy backup of cash to keep yourself going for at least a day. Some foreign countries (looking at you, Germany) greatly dislike credit card use and prefer to enforce exclusive cash rules so it’s best to stay safe and pack some money you can keep tucked in your wallet.

Holidays are a great time to get out and take the trip of your dreams. Help yourself stay safe by following the above tips, and check out our blog for future insights. We at AllStuff wish you a happy holiday season!

How Business Owners Should Estimate Printing Costs

Simple Tips to Calculate Your Printing Costs

Whether your operations use a heavy-duty printer for everyday work or a small central printer for a tight-knit office, keeping track of your printing expenses is important. With how hectic a business can get, it’s hard to know with absolute certainty what your monthly printing costs are, let alone annually. Here are some tips to keep yourself on top of your printing finances:

Know Your Printing Situation
If you have multiple printers, account for each paper cartridge you use to refill them. If you know you use a lot of printers, be prepared to make individual sheets per printer Something like an Excel sheet or Word document detailing the refills on your printer is helpful. Most businesses keep track of their overall printing costs by dividing the number of pages of the cartridge yield by the cost of that printer cartridge used for printing. They go through per month or CPP (cost per page) for their expense records. Services and companies who offer printing estimates can be costly, and online websites that offer services where you can calculate them are also pricy. Get in the habit of checking yourself to save time and money.

Have a General Sense of Monthly Printing Costs
Try to keep accurate recordings of the amount of paper cartridges your business goes through, whether through an Excel sheet or other means. This will let you accurately recount each month’s expenses while also keeping a tidy record of all printing costs per month.

Introduce Your Teams to Cross-Functional Collaboration
If you find a gap in your printing expense records, try asking the department responsible for that printing to provide you records and help keep things organized. It takes a village to keep a company running, and the accounting departments could definitely use a helping hand in procuring obscure data.

Countless unexpected charges fly undetected when totaling your expenses at the end of the month. The last thing you want for your end of month expense report are needless costs that are unaccounted for. Prevent your printing costs from catching you by surprise and learn to plan ahead with the above tips.

Which Printer to Pick: Laser or Ink?

Printers exist in two major groups: laser and inkjet. Both are perfect for everyday use, both use a specific cartridge, and both have the same functions. As their names suggest, the only immediate difference between the two is that the laser printers utilize a laser cylinder that fuses toner to the paper and inkjet printers use liquid ink cartridges that contain nozzles to print. However, there is more to these printers than what meets the eye. Deciding between the two seems inconsequential, but laser and inkjet printers have their own unique benefits that could sway your decision.

What’s the Difference?

Laser printers are perfect for documents that need extra clarity on text specifically. The cartridge within a laser printer emits a laser which is projected onto mirrors which catch and fuse toner particles to a piece of paper. From this fusion, the laser printer produces crisp, distinct text that’s slightly superior to inkjet due to that hyper-specific method of print production. Images are also able to be printed via laser printers, but may appear less vivid than an inkjet printer would produce.

On the other hand, inkjet printers are highly capable and ideal for producing high quality images. People in the t-shirt print industry, photography industry, and other industries that use a variety of different materials rely on inkjet printers because they blend colors more vividly and can accommodate a larger spectrum of colors in general. Inkjet printers are the go-to printer for any person looking to create high-quality prints without worrying about an ultra-defined text accompanying it.

So now that we know the details behind laser and inkjet printers, let’s dive into which you should buy.

You Should Buy an Laser Printer if You:

• Print on papers that are heat-resistant.
• Desire crisp, clear texts.
• Work in a fast-paced setting where you need the option to print large quantities without potentially sacrificing text quality.

You Should Buy an Inkjet Printer if You:

• Print out high-quality graphics.
• Need your graphics need to be high-quality and reliably produced.
• Work in a casual setting, like working from home.

Whether you’re in the market for crisp images, text, or a fine printer. In general, knowing the difference between a laser and inkjet printer can save you time and money. While the difference in price may be negligible, you should be aware of the intricacies and perks of owning these two types of printers. While there’s nothing wrong with using laser or inkjet printers for other things besides their key qualities, it’s important to recognize what you could be missing out on. When you get home, see what kind of printer you have and whether or not it suits your purposes.

Why You Should Be Buying Compatible Cartridges

Since their inception, OEM’s have been considered the industry standard. OEM stands for Original Equipment Manufacturer, meaning that the OEM toner has been produced directly from the company and not a third-party source. However, there are a number of other things that can be better and perform at the same capacity as OEM’s. Compatible toners are the perfect toner to compliment a budget friendly option. They perform as well if not better than OEM toners and, better yet, are environmentally friendly due to their ability to be recycled after use. The only other noticeable difference is that OEM’s are made from the manufacturer and third-party distributors sell compatible cartridges in addition to OEM cartridges.

What am I Getting out of Compatible Cartridges?

To get a better picture of compatible toner’s capabilities, let’s look at the value you get from buying a compatible toner:

1. You get the full benefits of an OEM’s printing capabilities including but not limited to: reliable ink production, crisp image quality, and immaculate vibrancy. Compatible materials are no less than their OEM counterparts and can produce amazing results.
2. Reduced cost. Compatible toners and cartridges are considerably cheaper than their OEM counterparts. While you may think their quality in turn would suffer, compatible toners are preferred by many in the industry to reduce their costs on cartridges.
3. Better transparency. The benefits of using third party manufacturers is an easier customer service experience. Manufacturers usually have a more robust customer service team backing them awaiting any and all of your questions, but can be held up by call volume. For example, AllStuff’s customer service team is on hand at all times to get you in the know about what buying compatible can offer you at any time during business hours.

If you’re looking for a cost-effective, environmentally friendly toner cartridge that produces more copies per cartridge, compatible toners are your best bet. You pay less for more on virtually every aspect comparted to their OEM counterparts and, best of all, you can recycle most of their larger components after use.

Here at AllStuff, we have the compatible cartridges to suit any of your printing needs. Check out our compatible and OEM toners over at our website or call in to get more clarification.
