Do Toner Cartridges Have an Expiration Date?
As with most things we purchase, those toner cartridges you keep on hand for your printer have an expiration date. Using toner after its expiration date has passed can have ill effects on your print jobs and the devices they’re used in. The most visible effect you can experience from using expired toner is poor quality for your prints. Over time, the consistency of the fine toner powder within a cartridge can change, clumping and turning lumpy. In this state, it’s more difficult for the powder to be fused onto the paper, which will result in poor-quality prints from your laser printer.
Using expired toner can lead to much bigger problems than print quality, although you won’t notice them nearly as easily. Some printer manufacturers have warranties for their devices
that are voided by using toner cartridges after their expiration date. If you’re using an expired cartridge and a technical issue arises that requires service, repair, or even replacement of a
device, if it’s discovered you’ve been using expired toner your warranty could be voided. This would leave you high and dry, without a functioning printer or coverage to fix or replace, unless of course your equipment is covered by a maintenance agreement from someone reputable like Yuma Office Equipment!

Ransomware Running Amok
Ransomware has crippled the workflows of municipalities across America in 2019, with major cities such as
Baltimore, Atlanta, and Albany, New York among the victims of these cyber-attacks. However, things have really heated
up this summer, as more than 20 towns in one state alone had their computer systems taken hostage in August.
Authorities believe a single source is responsible for a coordinated ransomware attack that targeted 22 local
governments in the state of Texas, demanding they pay ransoms of hundreds of thousands of dollars to restore
access to their computer systems.
Unfortunately, ransomware is not limited to government entities as targets. In fact, small businesses face a much
bigger threat, as they are the primary targets of these attacks. According to a report by Beazley Breach Response
Services, 71 percent of ransomware attacks in 2018 targeted small businesses, with an average ransom demand of
$116,000. If ransomware can circumvent the cyberdefenses of a state capital such as Albany and incapacitate their
digital operations, most small- and medium-sized businesses are ill-equipped to defend themselves from these
threats.
Ransomware can be countered, but it takes diligence on the part of an organization. In fact with our BDR service your data is encrypted and cannot be touched by current ransomware. First, employees should be educated about the threat of ransomware and how to detect and avoid falling victim to phishing emails. Second, IT security measures—such as internal firewalls, two-factor authentication, and regular software updates—should be employed to help mitigate risks. Finally, and perhaps most importantly, regularly backup your data. If hackers do get past your defenses and encrypt your data, having a copy of your data will minimize the damage done and prevent you from having to pay the ransom to regain access to your files
