I turn mine into Staples--and I get credit for them (you have to join the Staples club, but that is free).

I take them to Staples also. I get $3 back for each one I reclycle and that takes a big chunk out of the cost of a new one!

Thanks for the info I used to take them there and wondered if they still take them

No I haven't been recycling them...but I do have them refilled. I do that at Walgreens. I've had it done several time in the same cartridge...and it has worked fine so far.

I bought a refilling kit at Staples and refill my own. The first time was bit messy, but now I have it down to a science. Lickety-split ~ no mess ~ no empty cartridges to lug around :)

I used to have them filled but they did not seem to last as long as a new one. I do recycle at work. I finally got smart and bought a printer for at home which uses a cheaper ink cartridge. They are $under $20.

HP always has an envelope to send in with your used cartridges, so I use that. I get a lot of mileage out of this printer, unlike the ink hog Epson I had for a couple of years.

You can get free envelopes at Wal-Mart and send them in....I try to do that because they are not good for the land fill. When we had an Office Max here, you could turn them in for paper...I loved that option. But..now all that is left around here is Wal-Mart so I use their envelopes...

I used to get plastic envelopes from the post office to send them somewhere to be recycled, but they don't have them anymore. Thanks for the info on Staples. I may even try refilling mine.

I refill our cannon cartridges (clear), they are easy to refill. Never refilled the HP ones(black)...has anyone had success refilling those? I love HP but they are exspensive. I understand why with the new print head each time. I should check our staples to see if there is a discount for returned cartridges.

I used to bring them to Office Max & Office Depot and get a ream of paper in exchange. I refilled them for a while. Haven't needed a new cart on my inkjet yet and I use a laser for most of my printing.

I never did before but I just put a new cartridge in for color and since it is an
HP there was an envelope. I will run it to the post office sometime this werk.
