Having accumulated several used up toner cartidges and after just forking
over another $100 for a new one, the question occurs:  Is there anyway to
refill used, but not worn out, LaserJet toner cartidges??  Even if the
quality eventually deteriorates, very little of my output has to be
first class.  A lot of listings get thrown away after they are obsoleted
by debugging.  And most listings are for my information, not for show.

It must be possible to buy a bottle of the right kind of toner and inject
it into the inner workings of the cartridge.

Anyone have any ideas on this??  Beyond accusing me of being too cheap for
my own good.  My mother taught me not to throw anything potentially useful
away.  And, those cartridges sure look potentially useful to me.

P.S. The cartridges are from my personal LaserJet and for my own use.
