Key Benefits of Remanufactured Toner Cartridges

When most people are given a choice, they prefer to buy a new product rather than a used product. This holds true for homes, cars, and even toner cartridges. When a consumer does buy a used product, most times the decision is made solely upon the difference in price between the new and used product.

Remanufactured toner cartridges offer then benefit of not only being less expensive than a new toner cartridge, but in many cases offer quality far superior to that of a new laser toner cartridge!

Not All "New" OEM Toner Cartridge Are New!

The next time that you purchase a brand new toner cartridge form HP, Lexmark, or any other manufacturer, look for a small sticker on the casing of the cartridge. You might be surprised at what you read! Most "new" toner cartridges from these major manufacturers are actually remanufactured toner cartridges! Yet you still pay a premium price over the 30%-60% discount available with Southern Cartridge. The bottom line - you're paying for a fancy packaging and a brand name on the box.

Discount Toner Cartridges: Remanufactured vs. Reconditioned

Before you purchase a used toner cartridge, its important to understand the difference between reconditioned and remanufactured toner cartridges. A reconditioned toner cartridge is simply cleaned, refilled, and sent back to the consumer. There is very little quality control in this process

A remanufactured toner cartridge, when processed by Southern Cartridge Service, undergoes a rigorous quality control inspection process. First, the entire toner cartridge is disassembled. Any waste toner is eliminated, and all of the parts are thoroughly cleaned with compressed air.

The next step is to rebuild the cartridge, replacing and worn out or defective components including the wipers and the doctor blades. Once the cartridge has been re-assembled, it is refilled with toner, tested, and finally packaged for shipment.

Toner Refill Fact and Fiction

It's understandable to be skeptical when it comes to toner refill. The typical concerns are about the quality and the quantity of the toner refill. Southern Cartridge Service not only uses a higher grade of toner than the OEM, but also refills your cartridge with more than original supply. This means that our cartridges will last 20% longer than the original, new product!

Without the added expense of manufacturing the casing for the laser toner cartridge, SCS can pass along the savings and refill your cartridge with more quality toner than the original manufacturer.

The next time you need to purchase a new toner cartridge, ask yourself what you're really paying for.
