Data Security for Printers
Print equipment including lasers, large format and print servers need specialist treatment as a portion of the recycling process. Their high capacity print is driven by on board storage devices (Solid state compact flash memory and Hard Drives) that keep user information and may contain private data.

Mansfield Waste Management employs a data security process that removes the dangers associated with third party access to such data.

A Professional Recycling Procedure:

The recycling of printers including inkjet, large format, laser, thermal and dot matrix follows a treatment process that results in:
Plastics (Polypropylene, ABS and Polyethylene)
Copper
Steel
Circuit Boards
Cables & cables
Toner Cartridges & ink cartridges
Fuser units

Hazardous wastes in Printers

A overwhelming majority of printing equipment, including all-in-one (fax, copy, scan) and photocopiers include fluorescent tubes, which by their nature may contain mercury.

Local Waste Management employs a separation process for such units, which are then turned back into glass inside the United Kingdom for use in new light bulbs.

Reusing Equipment
We’re constantly aware that the WEEE directive calls for re use as a portion of the recycling process and have a UK based end user market for feasible equipment.

Of the wastes we receive at our facility, just some 10% of printers can be reused. The balance are either beyond re use or more affordable to buy from new than to refurbish.

OEM toner cartridges and inkjet cartridges are re distributed through specialists that ensure their remanufacture and re use inside the United Kingdom.
