What Is A Toner Cartridge?

By Bradd Alan


There are a staggering amount of cartridges that are discarded in the whole world, which take thousands of years for decomposition. The rising prices of the oil have brought the concern about the usage of the cartridges as it takes lot of oil to manufacture a single cartridge. Moreover the carbon particles used in the toner is classified as a hazardous landfill substance.

To avoid the pollution, companies have made an effort to recycle the cartridges. They either collect the used cartridges form the dumping locations or by directly contacting through mails. After they have collected the cartridges they segregate them according to their model no and separate them into its constituent parts. The worn out parts are separated and replaced. The cartridges are refurbished and then the toner is field in the cartridge. The recycled cartridge is easily made within a quarter of the cost, it is even better than the new one. The following are certain advantages and importance of recycling cartridges.

The printer toner makes the printing look simple but it has gone several development procedures to become perfect. The toner cartridges became possible only because of the modern technology. The usage of plastic was made along with the carbon particles to allow it to make smaller particle size.

Though there are so many additions made for the preparation of the toner cartridge, you can still find them getting spoiled. The reason behind them is the improper storage of the cartridges. To store the cartridges you must follow the way the cartridges are packed and delivered to your premises. The package is specially made for the delivery of the cartridges. The special feature of the package is that it prevents the cartridge to get exposed to the moisture, keeps it away from sunlight and also prevents it from heat.

The toner cartridge is very sensitive, when it is exposed to any of the following i.e. sunlight, moisture or heat, it gets affected by it and gets destroyed. For example when the toner is exposed to moisture it gets soft and wet which is not good for printing. Another major reason that affects the toner cartridges is the direct exposure to the sunlight.

The recycled cartridges are not only cost you less but you also get quality printing. The recycled cartridge reduces most of the printing costs. It also holds more ink compared to the traditional cartridges. Moreover the quality of printing you get is the same as you find from the regular printers. With the increased importance given to the recycling of cartridges, companies also offer to give money in turn of your used cartridges. The more used cartridges you send to the remanufacturers the more money you get from them, some of it is also donated to certain charities.

Recycling of cartridges also conserves land; the cartridges are dumped in land filled sites. With the increase in the number of cartridges there is more need of land to dispose them.

Therefore recycling reduces the need of more land, it saves the land space and also prevents soil pollution. Recycling of cartridges is very important as the constituents of the cartridge are non-biodegradable; it takes a very long time to get decomposed. Hence recycling cartridges to the best of your ability is advised.
