Printer Cartridges

Ink Jet printer cartridges are recycled by mailing spent cartridges to a company that refills them with ink and resells them at a lower price than new cartridges. Currenly, all ink jet printer cartridges generated at UIS should be mailed to Bob Raebig (BSB33). All proceeds are donated to the UIS Starlettes Dance Team.

Laser Jet Toner Cartridges are recycled by exchanging spent ones with remanufactured cartridges. The recycled cartridges are high quality items at a cheaper cost than new ones. A local company, Cartridge King of Land of Lincoln, provides this service to UIS. Cartridge King, a non-profit organization, is a division of United Cerebral Palsy and hires individuals with disabilities. For more information on Cartridge King e-mail jjkcigar@hotmail.com. Laser Jet toner cartridges are recycled by dropping off your spent cartridge at Central Stores C-114. Please do not leave them at the recycling stations or send them through the UIS campus mail. Campus departments can lower supply costs and reduce solid waste by using re-manufactured Cartridges!
