HP printers - Outstanding quality! 2-3 times the page yield compared to HP Save money, time and carbon footprint! “Greenest” toner cartridge available! These are NOT remanufactured Made in the USA: TAA/Buy America Compliant You will make lots of money! Substantial employment for people who are blind
SKILCRAFT Toner Value Proposition Print 2-3 times the number of pages compared to HP
branded toner High yield equals large savings per printed page The only toner to offer a written yield guarantee 9 patented technologies improve print quality and
significantly extend cartridge life 3rd party tests by Rochester Institute of Technology (RIT)
Less time spent ordering, changing cartridges, and recycling or disposing of cartridges
Less wasted toner residue at bottom of cartridge
The “Greenest” Toner Available! No other toner reduces usage by at least 50% Less than half as many cartridges to manufacture,
package, transport, and recycle or dispose of Saves more than 50% on petroleum, raw
materials, energy, fuel, & packaging 37% post-consumer recycled content by weight All components are 100% recyclable – prepaid
return label enclosed in re-sealable box 100% of all returned cartridges are recycled 100% recycled packaging; non-toxic ink & varnish
