Print cartridge information The print cartridge is designed to simplify replacement of the major consumable parts. The print cartridge contains the printing mechanism and a supply of toner. At 5 percent page coverage, a standard print cartridge will print approximately 2,000 pages. However, a cartridge should print more pages if it regularly prints pages with less coverage, such as short memos. The cartridge might print fewer pages if heavy or bold print is used. For best results, always use a print cartridge before the expiration date stamped on the cartridge box. Refilled print cartridges While Hewlett-Packard does not prohibit the use of refilled print cartridges during the warranty period or while the product is under a maintenance contract, it is not recommended for the following reasons: ● Repairs resulting from the use of refilled cartridges are not covered under HewlettPackard warranty or maintenance contracts. ● Hewlett-Packard has no control or process to ensure that a refilled cartridge functions at the high level of reliability of a new HP LaserJet toner cartridge. Hewlett-Packard also cannot predict the long-term reliability effect on the product from using different toner formulations found in refilled cartridges. ● The print quality of HP LaserJet print cartridges influences the customer's perception of the product. Hewlett-Packard has no control over the actual print quality of a refilled cartridge. ● Parts that are critical to print quality may not be replaced when the cartridge is refilled with toner. Recycling print cartridges In order to reduce waste, Hewlett-Packard offers a recycling program. Cartridge components that do not wear out are recycled. Plastics and other materials are recycled. Hewlett-Packard pays the shipping costs from the user to the recycling plant (within the United States). To join this recycling effort, follow the instructions inside the print cartridge box.
