does any one know the closest loose toner replacement for a xerox workcenter
copier - printer? the freaking remanufactured ones are 240.00 a piece. I
had a canon that I used to refill like this and used minolta toner and it
lasted for years with no problems..
thanks

Xerox uses Sharp engines for thier copiers, etc. so look there for Sharp
type toner. However, an actual Sharp toner cart won't work as they
physically change the shape alittle to keep it that way. :(

good luck -----Willy

The Xerox XC, XD & XE series toner cartridges are all
remanufacturable. However Xerox does like to make it interesting with
the 'Starter'(1/2 the toner) cartidges for some models which simply
will not be recognized without a sequence of buttons on the console
being pushed within exactly 4 seconds from turning on the copier.

Please don't try Minolta toner again - you lucked out if it worked in
an A15/ A30 Canon cartridge. The Xerox series above have a second
component to change - and not overfill - the developer. Also the drum
waste hopper needs to be carefully emptied eventually, without
distortion of delicate wiper and deflector blades. The magnetic roller
in the toner cartridge is component that may need cleaning.

We're puzzled by the $240. price mentionned, it looks like a $Canadian
price for brand new OEM Xerox W/C 6R914 toner cart. That is, before
Staples raised it to $Can266.59. This is one of the most expensive
types ever offered to the home user. Image Control can remfr.them for
$US79.00 or $Can119.00

The only hitch is NO ONE can find extra empties at this point. We need
your used one for 1 day. We will also purchase any quantity of empties
@ $US12.00 each
