Order Recycled (Remanufactured) Ink and Toner
Don't blow up your printer! Be sure you order the correct cartridge for your specific printer model. Check the contract summary for Remanufactured Toner Cartridges before you buy. Once you know the right cartridge to order, place your order through FMS. Search "REMAN" for the list of available cartridges.
To recycle used toner cartridges, simply pack them up, mark "Warehouse - Recycle" on the box, and send through the Pony.
