Preventing Toner Cartridge Waste
Each year, millions of empty toner and inkjet cartridges used in laser printers, fax machines, and copiers are thrown in the trash, destined for landfills and incinerators.

Buying locally remanufactured toner and inkjet cartridges -- and recycling empty cartridges -- is an easy way for government agencies and public institutions to reduce the environmental impact of these discarded products, while also saving substantial tax dollars and bolstering the local economy.

Any office equipment that uses a toner cartridge, as opposed to requiring toner to be added to the machine, should be able to use remanufactured cartridges.

This fact sheet provides guidance on buying remanufactured toner cartridges, as well as some related strategies for minimizing waste and pollution from these and other printing supplies.

 
Advantages of Using Remanufactured Cartridges

Preventing Toner Cartridge Waste (and Saving Paper)

Many of our customers work in a SOHO (Small Office Home Office) environment and ask us for printer recommendations. They print mostly forms and seldom need color.









Our most common recommendation is to replace their inkjet printer with a personal monochrome (black only) laser printer. The cost-per-page is a fraction of the CPP using an inkjet printer. The typical inkjet cartridge yields around 200 pages. The average toner cartridge produces 2000 pages.

A good example is the Samsung ML-2510. This printer takes up no more room on a desk than the average inkjet printer yet produces up to 3000 pages @ 25ppm. The remanufactured cartridge for this printer costs less than $60 which is not much more than the cost of a new set of ink cartridges.

If you prefer a printer manufactured by HP or Brother, they both make similar personal laser printers. At the store we use the HP-1012 and the Brother HL-2140. Both are inexpensive to purchase and inexpensive to resupply. For example, the cartridge for the HP-1012 costs $39.99 at Cartridge World and will produce 2000 pages. HP no longer sells the 1012 directly, but it can still be found online for $96 to $237.

Switching to a small form factor laser printer can substantially reduce your printing costs. It's worth considering as a way to keep your printing costs within an ever tightening budget.
