Recycling Lexmark packaging
Lexmark continually strives to minimize packaging. Less packaging helps to ensure that Lexmark printers are
transported in the most efficient and environmentally sensitive manner and that there is less packaging to dispose
of. These efficiencies result in fewer greenhouse emissions, energy savings, and natural resource savings.
Lexmark cartons are 100% recyclable where corrugated recycling facilities exist. Facilities may not exist in your area.
The foam used in Lexmark packaging is recyclable where foam recycling facilities exist. Facilities may not exist in your
area.
When you return a cartridge to Lexmark, you can reuse the box that the cartridge came in. Lexmark will recycle the
box.
Returning Lexmark cartridges for reuse or recycling
The Lexmark Cartridge Collection Program diverts millions of Lexmark cartridges from landfills annually by making
it both easy and free for Lexmark customers to return used cartridges to Lexmark for reuse or recycling. One hundred
percent of the empty cartridges returned to Lexmark are either reused or demanufactured for recycling. Boxes used
to return the cartridges are also recycled.
To return Lexmark cartridges for reuse or recycling, follow the instructions that came with your printer or cartridge
and use the pre-paid shipping label. You can also:
1 Visit our Web site at www.lexmark.com/recycle.
2 From the Toner Cartridges section, select your country from the list.
