Hi.

I work with several HP and Apple laser printers and I've been thinking about 
having my toner cartridges reconditioned instead of buying new ones all the
time.  Does anyone have any suggestions or comments?  What do I look for in
a reconditioning company?  What do I watch out for?  How much should it cost?
What type of guarantee can I expect?  Will I have problems with my laser
printers' warranties?  What are the risks?  How about colors?  Would local
companies be better than mail order?  What kinds of problems are there with
disposing of my cartridges?  

Any comments and remarks are immensely appreciated.  Thanks in advance.
