Toner Cartridges Return Program

What does return program mean on toner cartridges?

Some printer manufacturers have a recycling program for used-up printer cartridges. For example, Lexmark has a prebate cartridge program for environmental sustainability. InfoPrint Solutions also has environmental management program to return fusers for refurbishing and reuse.

What are Lexmark Return Program Cartridges?

Lexmark Return Program Cartridges are sold at a discount versus the prices of regular cartridges in exchange for the customer's agreement to use the cartridge only once and return it only to Lexmark for remanufacturing or recycling. Regular cartridges without this license/agreement sold at regular prices are also available. Regular cartridges are also recyclable at no cost through Lexmark Cartridge Collection Program. Lexmark Return Program Cartridges are always made with all new parts.

What do I get for sending empties back to Lexmark?

You received a significant discount up-front (over the regularly priced cartridge with regular conditions) in exchange for compliance with the Lexmark Return Program conditions. There is no charge for returning empty cartridges to Lexmark through the Lexmark Cartridge Collection Program. Doing so helps protect our environment and helps comply with the Lexmark Return Program conditions to use the cartridge once only and return the empty cartridge to Lexmark for remanufacturing and recycling.

Does the Return Program discount affect the warranty coverage or length in any way?

No. The regularly priced cartridge and the Return Program Cartridge both have the same lifetime warranty.

Other than price, what is the difference between the Return Program Cartridges and regular cartridges?

There are no performance differences whatsoever. Return Program Cartridges have Return Program-specific license agreement conditions printed on them that do not appear on regular cartridges.

What if I don't return the Return Program Cartridge?

Why wouldn't you? It's free. It's easy. It's the right thing to do for the environment.
