The market has quite a few options for customers using laser toner cartridges,

1. OEM Laser Toner Cartridges – The OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturer) toner cartridges are usually manufactured by the company, which manufactures the printer. They come with the printers. These are also very expensive, though the manufacturers recommend the use of genuine toner cartridges for best results. However, there is not much qualitative difference between an OEM cartridge and a compatible or remanufactured laser printer toner cartridge, but cost-wise the latter is much cheaper.

2.  Compatible Printer Toner Cartridges – A generic company manufactures compatible printer toner cartridges. These are at par with the branded toner cartridges but much cheaper. Some original toner manufacturers also offer compatible toner cartridges for other laser printer brands. Moreover, your printer's warranty will not be void if you use compatible toner cartridges.

3.  Remanufactured Toner Cartridges – Compatible toner cartridges may not always be available in the market. Therefore, you may have to buy remanufactured cartridges or recycled toner cartridges. Previously used cartridges are cleaned, refilled with new toner and tested at the factories. Remanufactured laser toner cartridges are cheaper than new cartridges. The remanufactured laser printer toner cartridges are environment-friendly as used cartridges are being recycled. You can help protect the earth from harmful waste materials that is deposited when we dispose new toner cartridges.
