Product
Information
We
carry remanufactured laser cartridges, toner recharge kits, bottles
of toner and recharge supplies for most laser printers,
copiers and faxes. We can also
supply you with genuine OEM replacement print cartridges and brand name printer supplies. If there is anything you do not see in
our store, do not hesitate to call and inquire. For more
information on methods for toner cartridge renewing, click

The toners that we offer are specifically designed for use in the toner cartridges to which they are compatible. During the toner
formulation process, careful attention is paid to the magnetic
characteristics and chemical make-up of the toner meant for your laser toner printer.
A
new trend in toner cartridge design, has been to incorporate the
use of computer chips into the functioning of the toner cartridge. Most new HP and Lexmark toner cartridges contain
chips. The chips must be replaces for all new Lexmark toner cartridges and color HP toner cartridges for the toner cartridge to print when returned to the laser toner printer. HP's
monochrome toner cartridges have chips as well, but they are
only needed to enable the "toner low" and other similar
functions.
For a light-hearted
introduction to the various wiper blades, drums, PCR rollers, felt wands, recovery blades and how they
interact within the replacement print cartridge, please see The
Toner of Peyton Place.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q. I see that you have a tool to
make a hole in the toner cartridge. Is that the way you refill
them when I purchase remanufactured toner cartridges from you?
A. No, the remanufactured toner
cartridges that we offer are remanufactured by disassembling the
toner cartridge, cleaning and replacing the parts that are worn
out. The reason for this is because refilling with the tool and
plug is suitable when you don't need to ship the toner cartridge,
and where you are familiar with the starting condition of the
toner cartridge to be refilled. However, there are some toner
cartridges that have pre-existing OEM toner hopper plugs, and
there are also some that can't be remanufactured without making a
hole to reach the toner hopper.
Q. Why are some of your toner
bottles filled to different weights than those I have found on
other websites?
A. Different toners have different
densities. For example, a finer toner will have a lower density
than a toner made up of larger particles. Because of this lower
density, the weight of the amount of toner you will need to fill a
toner cartridge will be less than if the toner was less dense
(i.e. coarser). The amount of toner that we include in a bottle is
in accordance with how much of our formulation of toner you would
need to refill the cartridge and get a full page yield out of it.
The density of the toner also affects how much toner will need to
be picked up by the PCR during the printing cycle; if your toner
is finer, you will tend to need less of it weight-wise to obtain
an even coverage over the printed area.
