Toner recycling - recycle or refill again

Every laser printer has at least one toner cartridge, and a color printer has as many as four.
At IT recycling, we remove the toner from each laser printer for recycling immediately upon arrival.
The toner is then kept separate from the rest of the printer and then goes to specialized toner recycling.
Indeed, toner cartridges are perfectly recyclable.
Toners of still-current types are refurbished and refilled and then sold as “compatible toner”; a cheap alternative to branded toners.
From toners that are no longer recyclable, there the powder (the actual toner) is removed.
This powder ends up back in other toner cartridges.
The rest, meaning the plastic casing is poorly recyclable and therefore unfortunately goes to the incinerator.
We also take loose toners for recycling in our collection of computer waste.
However, do you have a substantial amount?
Then we recommend having them collected by a specialized toner recycling company such as Parc Ink, www.legecartridge.nl or marcscartridgecompany.co.uk.
This is free anyway and often you get money for it as well.

How do you handle toners?

We have some tips for you on how to deal with old laser printers and the toners they contain:

When moving old laser printers, don’t put them on their side.
Toner can then leak out with dire consequences;
When working with toners, wear gloves and goggles.
The black substance – the actual toner – is very harmful to your health.
It’s also best not to smoke or drink coffee when working with toners;

Still made a mess with a toner?
Grab the vacuum cleaner right away.
That really works best.
