New Technology from HP actually saves Ink.

Just released by HP is the photosmart D7260. This is unique in the printer world because when you initiate ‘clean the print heads’ instead of wasting the ink used for cleaning purposes, it is recycled back into the print cartridges thus saving you money!.

Utilising the HP Vivera ink technology and a six colour cartridge system means that you only have to replace a cartridge when the colour has run out and the quality of the output is outstanding. Giving a print speed of up to 34PPM in draft mode means that not only is it frugal, but also startlingly fast. Given this sort of specification the D7260 will give many mono laser printers a run for their money!.

HP Recycles old ink cartridges:

HP (Hewlett-Packard) is boosting its effort to effectively recycle used inkjet printer cartridges. They have now rolled out their ‘closed loop’ process which has been in development and proving since 2005. The process first breaks down plastic in printer cartridges made of PET (polyethylene terephthalate), after which additives including fibres and resins are used to strengthen and regenerate the plastic. The remoulded plastic is then used to manufacture new HP inkjet cartridges.

During the proving HP has already manufactued 200 Million printer cartridges and the process will now go into full production.

Each cartridge contains 70 – 100 percent recycled material, Users will find the process beneficial as cartridges with new material perform better than used or refilled cartridges (according to HP).

The inkjet cartridge recycling initiative is the latest in HP’s broad effort to be environmentally friendly. HP recently announced that it would implement more energy-efficient technologies across its PC lines to reduce computer energy use by 25 percent in 2010.
