Just about everyone that has ever purchased a Xerox toner cartridges, for example, or any other printer ink or toner refill is aware of how drastically expensive those refill cartridges can be. In fact, in some cases replacement printer cartridges can actually cost more than the original printer. Believe it or not, this happens on purpose and is a specific type of marketing (usually associated with shaving razors and replacement razor blades) that is practiced by a wide variety of businesses, even video game console manufacturers often initially sell gaming systems at a loss to make a bigger profit on video game sales.

Unfortunately, this has led to some upside down shopping behaviors, such as people purchasing a cheap new printer every time a previous printer runs out of ink or toner, instead of buying a new Xerox toner cartridge or the like. As a result, many printer manufacturers have started including ink and toner cartridges that are only about a third as full as replacement cartridges are.

Instead of these silly purchasing tactics, though, many people have turned to buying refilled, recycled, or in other ways remanufactured printer cartridges. By purchasing these recycled products, consumers not only help save the environment, but they also are able to save up to fifty percent in many cases compared to buying new name brand products. And if quality is something that you worry about, worry no more and just check the labels or other documentation, because most good printer cartridge recycling companies put their products through testing that ensure equally good or better performance than their original and name brand counterparts. So next time you run out of ink or toner, consider shopping online for recycled ink or toner cartridges; you can save a bunch of money while also doing your part to save the environment.
