Try taking a look at the 123inkjets Coupons in http://www.discountspies.com/123inkjets-coupons/ . I'm not really sure how good the deal is but you won't lose anything just checking it out.

Change your printer settings.. It's probably on high quality which uses the most ink... You can also print everything in black n white which is especially good if you are printing something from a website (coupon,photo) where the color doesn't matter... Also, save your ink cartriges some office supply stores like Office Max, Staples offer $3 coupons to recycle your old ink cartriges.. You can use up to 4 or 5 coupons at a time.. Also, you can purchase ink from wharehouse/wholesale clubs for cheaper.. Or get your empty ink cartriges refilled for cheaper... Some Walgreens locations do this.. I would look online.. good luck

Switch to laser... it's cheaper per sheet (but more expensive to buy up front...) so if you're usage is high enough it's worth switching to laser.
The cheapest 3-colour laser printer in the UK (it's a Samsung) is about £200... that's going to be somewhere in the $200-$400 range. The running costs of lasers can go down to 2p/2c a page... cheaper than inkjet.

If you feel confident enough you can buy kits (for EXTREMELY low amounts of money) and just re-fill the cartridges your self. For my ink jet (which is a Canon Pixima ip4200) i can refill the cartridges about 7-10 times. I thus save about 75% per refill than if i were to buy a set of fresh ones. I also do this with my laser (although not as effective as each cartridge only goes for 2-3 refills). All in all this is the best method to save money on ink/toner. I buy the stuff from www.ink-refills-ink.com

Print less important things up as "draft mode". Go into your printer settings when printing it. It won't use as much ink.
