When personal computers became commonplace so did printers, copiers and fax machines and the high costs of replacing cartridges. The solution is to buy recycled cartridges from a professional remanufacturer.

Today's remanufactured inkjet and toner cartridges are cleaned, inspected, reloaded with ink or toner, then tested for quality. Conscientious remanufacturers replace drums in every toner cartridge. Quality is the hallmark of top remanufacturers who guarantee their products. Ink jet and toner cartridge recycling keeps massive amounts of non-degrading trash out of the landfill and saves customers up to 50% of the cost of a new cartridge.

What Kind of cartridges can be recycled?

Most cartridges can be recharged. Whether fax machine, laser printer, ink jet or bubble jet printer, the supply items are usually recyclable. Ink jet and toner cartridges from companies like Canon, Hewlett-Packard, Apple, Lexmark, Sharp, Compaq and Xerox can be professionally recharged saving the consumer about 40% over the cost of new. Many small office/home office copier cartridges are also successfully recycled.

Ink jet cartridges can be recycled up to six times. Empty inkjet cartridges should be placed in a plastic bag until recycled. Color inkjet cartridges refill best when the customer stops printing as soon as one color shows signs of running out. There are no replacement parts for ink jets. Toner cartridges can be recharged many times since parts, which wear out, can be replaced. All cartridges are tested for print quality and page life prior to release.

So, think before you toss! Would you throw away a tire if all it needed was air?
Why throw away a cartridge if all it needs is ink?
