    Recycling. It's very easy to do, and with most companies, saves them money. Recycling ink cartridges saves them money, and helps the earth. Out of ALL of the Ink companies, EPSON is the only one that does not recycle their cartridges. They REFUSE to allow stores to recycle them!!! Protest Epson!! Make them recycle!!!

    Thank you for your interest in recycling used Epson inkjet cartridges.
    Due
    to the design of our ink jet ink cartridges, we do not refill or
    remanufacture
    them. Neither of these alternatives is cost effective. Nor do we have
    a
    program set up to receive them for recycling at this time. We are
    continuing to search for
    the most cost effective, consumer friendly yet environmentally sound
    program available for disposal.
    While continuing that effort, and because we realize the growing need to
    provide an environmentally sound program, we developed our relationship
    with FundingFactory, an organization that works with schools and non-
    profits in their fundraising efforts. Enrollment with FundingFactory is
    free to any school that wishes to participate by going on-line to
    www.fundingfactory.com. Once they have joined, they can begin to collect
    used printer cartridges and old cell phones which earn points that can
    be
    redeemed for such items as computers, cameras, printers and sporting
    goods,
    just to name a few.
    We believe this partnership is great way for our consumers to
    participate
    in a program that not only profits the schools, as well as other
    organizations, but also provides a means for our cartridges to be used
    for
    the greater good of our schools and children.

    My email:

    Is there a reason why your company is the only ink company that does not
    recycle their ink cartridges? It's simple to do, and would save you
    lots
    of money, not to mention that little detail of helping to save the
    earth?


    My Answer:

    Redesign your cartridges. No one else has that problem.
