In an endeavor to save money and the world, there has been an increasing trend among printer users refilling used up ink cartridges. It is indeed the ideal way; it is less expensive to purchase refilled inkjet cartridges, or do-it-yourself refilling than to buy brand new ones whenever you run out of ink. Save environment is the current concern everywhere, so Hp has also joined hands with the pledge to support for environment.

Economies of scale: HP inkjet cartridges are worth the value so long these are full as well as empty. Consumers can cash the empty cartridges by sending them to the recycling unit. This way, they could get the money back against their next order or can save a fortune for life’s other expenses.

Conservation matters: It consumes more than 85mls of oil when manufacturing a new ink cartridge. If one cartridge has been recycled, it means that one less new cartridge has been sold.  So, when there would be fewer sales, it means that there would be less production and less production means less oil being used!

Environment friendly: Ink cartridges are composed of materials like plastics and metals that are not easily decomposed when disposed off in landfill sites. They are causing threat to human and animal life and this is a prone to major environmental issues. The feasible solution undertaken by HP is to refill their cartridges.

HP is thus honoring some of the most excellent performers with its Eco-Friendly Printing Award.
