Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) cartridges are brand new toner/ink
cartridges bearing the original brand names, such as HP™, Lexmark™, Brother™,
or Canon™, etc.
Remanufactured cartridges are an economical alternative to expensive OEM cartridges. These cartridges are remanufactured and recycled to meet OEM specifications of quality and reliability. Remanufacturing involves disassembling, inspecting, cleaning, replacing components, reassembling and filling with toner. Once the remanufacturing process is complete, the cartridge is then inspected, print tested, sealed, and packaged.
No. There should be no difference in the print quality or page yield of a remanufactured cartridge. JMD uses only graphics quality toner and replacement parts that meet or exceed the OEM standard.
Manufacturing compatible cartridges reduce the amount of Non-Biodegradable plastics in landfills. Additionally, the manufacturing processes used to create new cartridges depend heavily on fossil fuel. That is why the EPA (Environmental Protection Agency) has recommended the use of compatible cartridges for many multi-national companies.
Definitely. Each discarded empty laser printer cartridge adds approximately three pounds of waste to our landfills that will take as long as 10 centuries to decompose. It is estimated that 100 million laser toner cartridges and 400 million inkjet cartridges are produced worldwide each year. Manufacturing these 500 million cartridges will save an estimated 4 million cubic feet of landfill space. The office products manufacturing industry has made and will continue to contribute a substantial positive input upon the environment and the economy wherever it exists.
Cartridges should always be handled with care. Do not touch the nozzles or the chips. You should keep your cartridges in the protective wrapping until you place them in the printer. Store your cartridges in a cool, dry location out of direct sunlight and avoid extreme temperature changes.
