Printers
EMERYVILLE,
Calif., Feb.07 — On the heels of the Kodak announcement of its entry
into the inkjet printer market, Cartridge World, the largest ink
refilling retailer, reminds consumers that using refilled cartridges
remains the most cost efficient way to print and is the right
environmental solution.”Reusing inkjet and laser cartridges is budget
friendly, easy to do, safe and much better for the environment,” said
Burt Yarkin, CEO of Cartridge World. “More than 300 million cartridges
end up in landfills every year — that’s almost eight cartridges thrown
away in the United States every second. Unfortunately, the problem
isn’t getting better, either. The number of cartridges in landfills
increases by 12 percent each year.”Addressing the growing concerns of
global warming, reusing existing products like cartridges will lessen
the negative impact on the environment.Cartridge World estimates their
efforts have kept nine million cartridges out of landfills along with
providing up to 50 percent savings for consumers, answering both money
savings and environmental concerns.The most cost efficient way for
consumers is to purchase a low cost printer and use refilled
cartridges. Cartridge World’s average price per refilled inkjet
cartridge is only $15.With the Kodak example, the low-end printer and
ink cartridges comes to approximately $250, while a high-end printer
would result in a $400 investment total in the first year. In
comparison, when the other Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEM’s) low
priced inkjet printers are paired with Cartridge World’s refilled
cartridges, the total year investment is only $160.Cartridge World
presently refills cartridges from all OEM’s and has been refilling
Kodak cartridges for years.Different from the efforts of big
manufacturers, Cartridge World addresses environmental issues by
showcasing its ability to refill inkjet cartridges an average of three
to eight times and remanufacture laser cartridges infinitely, all
without sacrificing quality. In fact, research also found that 77
percent of users ranked remanufactured cartridges as better than or
equivalent to ones by name-brand ink.
