Default Remanufactured Colour Toner Cartridges

I use remanufactured black toner at home (from ClickInks) and have ever since I got my laser printer. I am not doing anything where quality is super important, but I have never noticed any issues. For my model the toner is less than half price even when including shipping.

I am considering doing the same with a colour laser printer (a HP 2605dn), but it is used in a situation where any quality issues would be noticed immediately. Stuff like for brouchures, or other promo type materials which might be given to clients as concept or design stuff etc.

Anyone ever had experiences, good or bad, with remanufactured toners?

We use recycled toners at my work place and we havent had any complaints on the quality from the staff. One issue we have is with our HP LJ 5550, if it notices a non-genuine cartridge the printer gets all pissy about it.

I notice monoprice sells toner, and it is DIRT cheap compared to what we pay, so im considering convincing my boss to order from there now.

I have an HP laser printer, and use toner from monoprice. I've never had an issue.

I work for a company here in Calgary that re-manufactures cartridges and sells them again, and we don't really have many problems with cartridges coming back for warranty. It happens occasionally but it's somewhat rare. As for quality, customers rarely complain that the cartridges aren't giving them the same quality as OEM cartridges.

Depending where you buy them, most places will refund and replace the toner if you have any problem with the quality.
