My son's secondary school has just started recycling ink and toner cartridges. I've just checked who they use and found the following link: http://www.emptiesplease.com/ Looking at that they seem to have a list of ones that they can't take - embarrasingly it seems that the HP 940 ones that I've provided can't be used. It seems that some can't be recycled, and some can't anymore - I've no idea why, economies of scale or changes in the orignal manufacturers spec aimed at preventing it perhaps. -- Paul Tansom | Aptanet Ltd. | http://www.aptanet.com/ | 023 9238 0001 ============================================================================= Registered in England | Company No: 4905028 | Registered Office: Ralls House, Parklands Business Park, Forrest Road, Denmead, Waterlooville, Hants, PO7 6XP -- Next meeting: Bournemouth, Tuesday, 2015-08-04 20:00 Meets, Mailing list, IRC, LinkedIn, ... http://dorset.lug.org.uk/ New thread: mailto:[email protected] / CHECK IF YOU'RE REPLYING Reporting bugs well: http://goo.gl/4Xue / TO THE LIST OR THE AUTHOR
