Consumer Report recommend refilling as cost-effective measure

Canadian news network CTV News have recently tested 135 printers in a Consumer Report in a bid to discover the most cost-effective printer, and cartridge refilling as a measure against expensive-to-operate printers. 


We do want to make it clear -  there is a difference in REFILL and RE MANUFACTURE, although some people use one word for the next, it is important to double check.


 Mr Inkbee Toner cartridges contain the toner, a powder used in place of ink in laser printers, and mechanism to produce a printed document in laser printers.

In our remanufacturing process, the cartridges is disassembled, into approximately 30 pieces which are cleaned and examined for wear and defects. Unused toner and waste toner are removed from the cartridge using special vacuum equipment which prevents explosions. (Don't try this at home.)

Any parts which are worn or defective are replaced during re-assembly. These parts can be seals, gears, blades for regulating toner coming out of the cartridge and cleaning. Where the cartridge has a built-in drum this is replaced and the cartridge refilled with toner. After testing, if a replacement computer chip is required this is installed.
