Car dealerships today are under pressure—from shrinking margins, rising operating costs, and economic uncertainty. While most cost-saving strategies focus on significant areas, such as inventory or staffing, one often overlooked opportunity for savings lies in an everyday necessity: printing.

That’s why more dealers are rethinking their approach and switching to remanufactured ink for their daily operations.

What is Remanufactured Ink and How Does It Work?

Remanufactured ink cartridges are OEM (original equipment manufacturer) cartridges that have been cleaned, repaired if needed, and refilled with high-quality ink.  Each cartridge is  rigorously tested to ensure it performs just like a new cartridge, matching and often exceeding the yield and quality of the original.

Group purchasing organizations collaborate with the largest remanufactured ink and toner manufacturers in North America to provide dealerships with a more affordable, eco-friendly, and dependable option for their printing needs.

Why Remanufactured Ink Makes Sense for Car Dealership Printing

Your dealership prints more than you think. From service repair orders and customer agreements to F&I documents and internal records, printing is a core part of daily operations. 

Here are the top reasons to switch:

1. Significant Cost Savings

Remanufactured cartridges from FLADCO offer up to  50% savings compared to national brands. That means more room in your budget for what matters, without sacrificing performance.

2. Performance You Can Trust

Every cartridge is 100% post-tested and backed by a two-year warranty on toner and a one-year warranty on ink. That means fewer reprints, fewer errors, and more uptime for your teams.

3. No Contracts or Minimums

Unlike traditional suppliers, we don’t lock you into long-term contracts. Get exactly what you need, when you need it. Plus, shipping is always free.

4. Green Initiatives

Each cartridge is made with at least 86% recycled content and manufactured using processes that reduce your carbon footprint by up to 50%. It’s a wise choice for your bottom line and the planet and complies with Green initiatives.
