I have an HP Laserjet II printer and the toner is getting low. What are my options? I found one company which would come out and pick up the old cartridge, recharge it, and replace it the next day for $59 first time, $49 next 5 times (Laser Recharge of Carolina, 467-5902). This seems a little steep, though I've heard new cartriges are in the $75 range. I need to do something fairly quickly since I can see faded areas on the page. Thanks for any info. -- Edmund Burnette, SAS Institute Inc. (919)677-8000x7772 | sasebb@unx.sas.com SAS Campus Drive, Cary, NC 27513 (919)677-8123(fax) | ...!mcnc!sas!sasebb

However, if they just pick up the old one and replace it, are they going to clean the printer? I've discovered that although recycling the old toner cartridges is the environmentally correct thing to do, the recycled cartridge that is installed isn't as good as a brand new one. I would advise you to purchase from a company that will sell you new cartridges, and give you credit for your old one. Most I have seen will give you a $15 credit for your old cartridge toward the purchase of a new one. --Keith

When you buy a new Hewlett-Packard toner cartridge, you put your old one in the box and an enclosed UPS pickup sticker on the outside. Then your old one gets recycled. They don't pay you anything for the old one, but then again it doesn't cost you to have it recycled. -- ________________________________________________________________________ | John jfw@neuro.duke.edu Duke University Medical Center | | Whitehead jfw@well.sf.ca.us Department of Neurobiology | |________________________________________ Durham, North Carolina ________|
