The distributor has produced new toners and components for Dell, Kyocera, Samsung and Brother cartridges.
Dell’s B3460
The first release is X Generation black toner and components for remanufacturing cartridges used in the Dell B3460 monochrome laser printer, which Uninet notes is a 47ppm machine “targeted at small to mid-sized workgroups” with features including duplexing and wireless printing. Cartridges come in three versions – 2,500 pages, 8,500 pages and 20,000 pages – whilst the imaging unit or drum cartridge is rated at 60,000 pages.
The company stated that “this is a potentially very profitable cartridge because it is considered an easy to remanufacture cartridge”, largely due to being “easily refilled by removing the end cap and fill plug, [and] adding the chip”, with a complete remanufacturing solution available.
The second launch comes in the Absolute Color range, with toner and components for remanufacturing the TK-560, 562, and 564 cartridges used in Kyocera’s FS-C5300 machine colour laser. The FS-C5300 features print speeds of 26ppm as well as duplexing and a resolution of 9,600 x 600dpi. With Kyocera’s ECOSYS technology, the toner is “the only component that gets replaced”, which Uninet states means it “is a potentially very profitable cartridge” due again to being “easy to remanufacture”.
The drum unit has a yield of 200,000 pages, so most users “will never replace” them, whilst the cartridges are supplied in 12,000 page versions in black, and 10,000 page versions in the three colours. Again, Uninet notes that it offers a “complete remanufacturing solution” for the cartridges.
Next, a new energy-efficient multipurpose toner has been developed in the Absolute Black range for use in up to 50 Samsung printers, including the SL-M4070, ML-4550 and 4050 machines as well as others in the ML, SCX and SL-M ranges. The MLU2 formula is “polyester-based”, working in old and new machines, and Uninet noted that “as most remanufacturers are aware, toners released for newer machines will often be backward-compatible with older models”.
This “makes life easier for remanufacturers” as it means having a toner “to use across multiple engine models […] reducing inventories and helping to keep costs down while maximising profits”. The company added that the toner “represents by far the lowest cost solution when reusing all OEM components”, with OEM-type densities, yields and fusing properties adding to the toner’s qualification with SuMMiT OPC drums to “guarantee three [or more] cycles”.
Uninet also mentioned that the toner enjoys a “lower toner melting point”, which “compliments the energy efficiency mode feature”, and adds that it offers a complete remanufacturing solution for the cartridges that the toner is designed for.
Another product launch in the Absolute Black range saw toner and components for remanufacturing the TN780, 750 and 720 cartridges used in Brother’s HL-5470 MFC monochrome laser printer. The device features print speeds of 40ppm, duplexing and 1200 x 1200dpi resolution, with the OEM toner cartridges supplied as both the TN720 with 3,000 page yield, and the TN750 with 8,000 page yield, and Uninet “offers a complete remanufacturing solution” in turn.
Finally, another launch in the X Generation range sees black toner and components made available for the cartridges designed for use in Dell’s 3333 and 3335 MFP monochrome printers, which both feature speeds of 40ppm and cartridges rated at 8,000 and 14,000 pages, with a drum cartridge rated at 30,000 pages.
