cartridge

Why is the cartridge so important for your printer to work properly? The printer cartridge actually holds the powder which creates the image onto the paper. This powder can include coloring agents, plastic particles, and carbon. Your printer also includes a drum unit, which is electro-statically charged. This charge transfers the toner onto the blank page. It is then fused permanently (because of the heated rollers used during the printing).

Replacing the toner can be done in a number of ways. But if the entire cartridge is replaced the cost can be high. One potential alternative for the penny-pincher, is to use a generic cartridge, instead of the more expensive units sold by the printer manufacturer. The potential downside to this is some printer manufacturers may void your warranty, however.

A third option is to “go green” by replacing the empty toner cartridge with a service that refills the powder. This allows the user to recycle the cartridges over and over again.

You’ll find bloggers discussing cartridges and toners at sites like Ink Toner Blog.
