What is the difference between an Inkjet Cartridge and a Toner/laser cartridge?
 Toner/laser cartridges are always larger than inkjets. They are mainly used, by business, schools predominately in offices settings. Toner/laser cartridges are usually black, plastic and contain a toner powder inside of them. Inkjet cartridges conversely are much smaller and are generally found in homes or in your desk top printer. They contain a liquid ink.
We currently only accept OEM cartridges. OEM stands for Original Equipment Manufacture and will be clearly marked on it with makers such as Hewlett Packard, Samsung, Dell, Lexmark, Canon, Brother, Panasonic etc on the label. Anything that states it is “compatible with” or “replaces”. Is not an OEM and is not currently accepted.
