For two decades, technical communicators have turned to TechWhirl to ask and answer questions about the always-changing world of technical communications, such as tools, skills, career paths, methodologies, and emerging industries. The TechWhirl Archives and magazine, created for, by and about technical writers, offer a wealth of knowledge to everyone with an interest in any aspect of technical communications.
We used reconditioned toner cartridges for our HPLaserJet III-class
printers and were somewhat less than pleased with them. They did cost
less, but in our experience they leaked toner and caused maintenance
problems (enough to give us major headaches).
I am also not sure if using reconditioned toner cartridges compromises the
warranty on an HP printer.
My unsolicited suggestion is to use the real thing; you might very well
save the cost of maintenance. (In our case, it was definitely a reasonable
decision.)
Hope this helps.
