| 41803 | 2002-04-04 08:48:00 | After reading Robo's post on refilling printer cartridges it reminded me that I wanted to ask about what to do with empty cartridges. I've got a couple of HP printers but don't go through the ink that quick. Nevertheless, I'm relunctant to throw away these cartridges (don't want to refill), being environmentally conscious and all that. Is there somewhere I can take them for recycling or something? Preferably in ChCh. |

I'm going there for Epson cartridges: $10 for black, $15 for colour. I've looked at refill kits: the refill kit from Calidad cost exactly the same as the Calidad replacement cartridge. I'm not prepared to do it myself at prices like this. |
