Recycling used cartridges
Canon has instituted a worldwide recycling
program for toner cartridges called “The
Clean Earth Campaign”. This program
preserves precious natural resources by
utilizing a variety of materials found in the
used cartridges that are of no further use, to
remanufacture new cartridges which, at the
same time, keeps the environment cleaner
by reducing landfill waste. Complete details
concerning this program are enclosed in
each PC Cartridge Box, and mentioned in
this manual.
