Didn't want to say the name. Just wanted to know if it was just us or across the board. Some toners are being held back on Xerox units & wanted to see if this is across the business world!
We've encountered the same issues with Xerox. I guess one of Xerox's toner manufactures went out of business. So we always make sure to have enough toner, fusers and other misc. things.
As far as Mutoh goes. We've been lucky. Although when we do order its 12 of each cartridge. Just make sure to have plenty of extras incase things happen.
We paid the price earlier this year with our Automatic laminators. There is only 1 type of film we can use in our auto laminators and there was a shortage of film. Luckily we were able to buy up enough inventory from other suppliers but, we now keep 100+ rolls of film on hand incase things like that happen again.
Best advice.. stock up on material and supplies if the budget allows it. You can't make money if you don't have any supplies.
