Printer Cartridges - FAQs

Q: What is a recycled cartridge or toner?
A: A recycled inkjet or toner cartridge that has been comprehensively cleaned, conditioned and refilled for use again. It is the ecologically friendly solution that you can depend on to perform as well and last every bit as long as the original.

Q: Why do recycled cartridges cost so much less?
A: Frankly, we do not completely know the answer. Printer prices have become so cheap we suppose that, like the razor manufacturers, printer manufacturers make their profits from consumables. Most of us spend more within the first few months on consumables, than on the initial cost of the printer.

Q: Are recycled cartridges as good as the original carts?
A: Yes. In virtually all case they are every bit as good, both in terms of performance and quality of product. Our clients include some of the most demanding advertising studios and design consultancies, who require absolute colour fidelity, reproduction integrity and reliability.

Q: Do they last as long as the originals?
A: Yes. In many cases longer as our manufacturers fill all our inkjet and toner cartridges to the maximum level possible, consistent with good performance, whereas some manufacturers deliberately partially fill their cartridges, especially those included with the printer, as a matter of course.

Q: What guarantee do I get?
A: We provide a full twelve month warranty and "no quibble" money back guarantee, unlike some of our less established competitors.

Q: Will buying recycled cartridges affect the warranty on my printer?
A: The answer should be no, and the Office of Fair Trading has written to printer manufacturers making this clear. In the unlikely event that a cartridge of ours did damage your printer, we would of course replace that printer.

Q: Why do you offer the same product for more than one printer or manufacturer model?
A: There are far more printer models, than there are manufacturers of the printer engine. Many motor cars share the same platform and parts, so too many different printers will have the same the engine and require the same inkjet or toner cartridge.

Q: Why are your products less expensive than many other similar recycled products?
A: The answer, very simply, economies of scale. We buy more than 2,000,000 printer products per annum and can demand from the manufacturers not only the highest quality, but also the best prices. We pass this benefit on to you. Many of our inkjet and toner products are sold under different labels by the largest high street and business catalogue organisations.
