Whether it is an original equipment manufacturer, or a recycled toner cartridges, the life of the cartridges is very short. It doesn't matter if you are regularly using the printer or it is left out. The cartridge of the laser toner will be thrown out within a span of 2 years from the time you purchase it. There must be a reason behind the spoilage of the cartridge. Before knowing the reason behind the spoilage of the toner cartridge it is important to know the usage of a toner. The toner cartridge is a device that is used in a printer to print thing on the paper.

Toner cartridges work in the same way as the ink cartridges do in inkjet printers. Although have been created to perform the same function both the ordinary cartridges and the toner cartridges differ from each other in several aspects. Carbon and plastic is used for the preparation of the toner cartridges. The principle on which the toner cartridges work is very simple. The printer has a heating drum every time the heating drum crosses the toner cartridge; the constituents of the cartridge fuse together and melt down on the paper.

The printer toner makes the printing look simple but it has gone several development procedures to become perfect. The toner cartridges became possible only because of the modern technology. The usage of plastic was made along with the carbon particles to allow it to make smaller particle size.

In the preparation of a single cartridge lots of fossil fuels are used, which results in the emission of lots of greenhouse gases. Recycling does not involve the processes involved in the production of new cartridges. So it prevents the production of greenhouse gases. Other benefits of recycling cartridges are it conserves other resources i.e. timber, aluminium and other resources used while manufacturing of the cartridge.

The toner cartridge is very sensitive, when it is exposed to any of the following i.e. sunlight, moisture or heat, it gets affected by it and gets destroyed. For example when the toner is exposed to moisture it gets soft and wet which is not good for printing. Another major reason that affects the toner cartridges is the direct exposure to the sunlight.

The recycled cartridges are not only cost you less but you also get quality printing. The recycled cartridge reduces most of the printing costs. It also holds more ink compared to the traditional cartridges. Moreover the quality of printing you get is the same as you find from the regular printers. With the increased importance given to the recycling of cartridges, companies also offer to give money in turn of your used cartridges. The more used cartridges you send to the remanufacturers the more money you get from them, some of it is also donated to certain charities.

Recycling of cartridges also conserves land; the cartridges are dumped in land filled sites. With the increase in the number of cartridges there is more need of land to dispose them.

If used simultaneously one after another while keeping the cartridges at proper condition. The cartridges can last for ever.
