TONER CARTRIDGES

Purchase high-quality recycled toner cartridges as well as recycle your used toner cartridges. Here’s what you can do:

Purchasing Recycled Toner Cartridges

Recycled toner cartridges are cartridges that have been used at least once and then disassembled, cleaned and had worn parts replaced and toner refilled. These cartridges have been tested for quality and endorsed by RIS so you can use them with confidence.

By purchasing recycled toner cartridges, you can save money while helping the environment. Terrific savings are available on recycled toner cartridges through Corporate Express, our Strategic Vendor for Office Supplies. Corporate Express offers recycled toner cartridges for many office machines that are frequently used around the University. Please check the list below to see if your office machines use compatible cartridges. Just look up your cartridges by manufacturer number and cross-reference it to the EXP product number on the list.

Note: The use of remanufactured toner cartridges will not effect the warranty on your printers, copiers and fax machines.

Recycling Used Toner Cartridges

Corporate Express drivers will pick up all types of toner cartridges from printers, copiers and fax machines regardless of manufacturer and whether or not they were purchased from Corporate Express. If you are purchasing your supplies from Corporate Express, these cartridges can be left in the area where your office supplies are delivered. If you do not use Corporate Express already, please contact:

All used cartridges must be in a cardboard box. We recommend using an empty copy paper box because you might as well recycle that, too! Please print the sign below and hang it on the wall to indicate where faculty, staff and students can leave their cartridges. Be sure to inform others of this location and encourage their participation.

Paper and toner saving hints:

• Use print preview to reduce the number of drafts you actually print.
• Use electronic mail whenever possible.
• Use the draft print option wherever possible.
• Fun tip: Domtar paper wrappers are printed on the inside with attractive designs so that you can even recycle the wrapper as gift wrap!

Please note: Always be aware of disreputable toner vendors that try to solicit Yale's business.
