Hi Michael! Dry or liquid? My printers use dry. My printers only spill a little toner which collects in the bottom of the case, if I were to even wipe it up I would just put it in the trash. If you have a lot, that is different. Ordinarily, it almost all gets used and then you refill the cartridge? If I had a lot, I would carefully sweep it up and put it back in the cartridge. The label is probably just political correctness. http://www.oce.com/uk/ukHelpdesk/Environment+/Environment/WasteToner.htm seems from this that in the uk it just goes to the landfill. -- Regards, Pete http://www.pete-theisen.com/ _______________________________________________ Post Messages to: [email protected] Subscription Maintenance: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profox OT-free version of this list: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profoxtech Searchable Archive: http://leafe.com/archives/search/profox This message: http://leafe.com/archives/byMID/profox/[EMAIL PROTECTED] ** All postings, unless explicitly stated otherwise, are the opinions of the author, and do not constitute legal or medical advice.
