Remanufactured toner cartridges
This National Standard of Canada specifies the manufacturing, performance and labelling requirements for remanufactured toner cartridges for monochrome laser print devices, including but not limited to printers, multifunction devices, copiers and facsimile (fax) machines. NOTE Some cartridges, because of their original OEM design and construction, may be more suitable than others for remanufacturing. Moreover, the life of the drum depends on the roughness of the paper used, the amount of continuous use (causing overheating), the length of time the printer is left switched on, and the quantity of graphics (as distinct from text) printed. Consequently, no definite statement can be made about the number of times a cartridge can be remanufactured. The testing and evaluation of a product against this standard may require the use of materials and/or equipment that could be hazardous. This document does not purport to address all the safety aspects associated with its use. Anyone using this standard has the responsibility to consult the appropriate authorities and to establish appropriate health and safety practices in conjunction with any applicable regulatory requirements prior to its use.
