FAQ'S

 
INKJET RELATED QUESTIONS

What is a new OEM cartridge?
OEM cartridges are new cartridges that are specially designed and manufactured by the same company that makes the brand of printer you have.

What is a Remanufactured Cartridge?
Remanufactured inkjet or toner cartridges are those that have been remanufactured and checked for quality assurance. Most remanufactured cartridges offer identical or superior ink or toner quality for far less money. To create these environment-friendly products, the cartridges are inspected, cleaned, and then remanufactured with high quality ink and toner. Once the cartridges have been tested, they are then sealed and sold to environmentally and financially wise consumers.

Aren't used cartridges inferior to new ones?
On the contrary, the remanufactured inkjet and toner cartridges sold by Eco-Inkjets.com are made from virgin OEM cartridges. Our cartridges are also 100% Guaranteed to meet or exceed original equipment manufacturer cartridges.

Will a remanufactured cartridge damage a printer?
No. Professionally remanufactured cartridges from Eco-Inkjets.com were engineered to meet or exceed the performance of original equipment.

Can I really save money by using remanufactured cartridges?
Yes -- as much as 40 to 60 percent! Depending on the quantity of cartridges your company uses, your savings can amount to thousands of dollars each year.

Will using Remanufactured cartridges "void" my printer warranty?
NO, thanks to the Magnuson-Moss Warranty Improvement Act, manufacturers cannot threaten to void your warranty simply because you didn't use their overpriced inkjet or toner cartridges. This is the law, and all printer manufacturers know about this law.

It is important to note that manufacturers are not required to repair in warranty products free if damage is done by a part that was defective and not from the manufacturer. Therefore, you can use a refill kit or a remanufactured cartridge in your printer without fear of voiding the warranty so long as the kit or cartridge was designed for your printer. This is why it's important for you to know and trust whom you buy from! All of Eco-Inkjets.com replacement inkjet and toner cartridges are of the highest quality and designed specifically for your printer model so that you can print worry-free!

What is the Magnuson-Moss Warranty Improvement Act?

Clearly, defined, the act states as follows:

No warrantor of a consumer product may condition his written or implied warranty of such product on the consumer's using, in connection with such product, any article or service (other than article or service provided without charge under the terms of the warranty) which is identified by brand, trade or corporate name; except that the prohibition of this subsection be waived by the commission if:

  1. The warrantor satisfies the Commission that the warranted product will function properly only if the article or service so identified is used in connection with the warranted product, and


  2. the Commission finds that such a waiver is in the public interest.

What are the differences between Inkjet Cartridges and Toner Cartridges?

  • Liquid ink is used in inkjet printers, some copiers, and faxes.


  • Toner is used in laser printers, plain paper faxes, and in plain paper copiers.


  • If the ink on the paper is wet, your printer probably uses ink cartridges.


  • If the paper comes out warm, it uses toner.


  • If your cartridge is about 3 to 4 inches in size (75 to 100 mm) or smaller, your cartridge probably uses liquid inkjet ink.


  • If the cartridge is about as wide as a sheet of paper (9 to 12 inches or 225 to 400 mm) or larger, the machine probably uses powdery toner.

Do remanufactured inkjet cartridges really help the environment?
Absolutely! Each discarded empty printer cartridge adds at least three pounds of unnecessary waste to our landfills…waste that can take as long as 1000 years to decompose. Additionally, the manufacturing process used to create new cartridges depends heavily on fossil fuels like oil. This year alone, cartridge remanufacturing will save millions of gallons of oil.
