| Four Facts About Toner Cartridge Recycling |
It takes 3 oz. of oil to make an inkjet toner cartridge and 3 quarts of oil to make a laser toner cartridge. Over 38,000 tons of plastic and metal are saved from landfills on the U.S. each year due to cartridge recycling. In just 7 months, cartridge recycling would save 11 million gallons of oil, more than what was spilled by Exxon Valdez in Alaska in 1989. 92% of inkjet cartridges and 60% of laser toner cartridges are not recycled, but could be.

| Five Tips to Help Run Your Office More Efficiently
Focus on Time Management To limited wasted time in the office send you staff to a time management seminar or hold your own internal time management sessions and bring in a guest expert. Provide coaching for employees Coaching is a process that can help you bring out the best in your co-workers so they are more efficient and it helps you to become more focused on your own job. Get a label printer A label printer lets you print out labels individually instead of wasting an entire sheet or risking running a sheet of labels through the printer multiple times which is very risky and can cause expensive repairs to be made to valuable equipment. Not to mention if you share a printer in a workgroup you won't have the worry of someone sending a job to the printer while it is loaded with labels for your print job and wasting expensive labels. Switch to Internet Fax Fax machines are some of the most energy-intensive pieces of equipment in the office. They constantly draw power around the clock because they need to be available to send or receive a fax. Internet fax services allow you the send and receive faxes via the computer, either through regular email or a secure online server. They can then be distributed to the recipient, electronically filed or otherwise handled and many times will not require a hard copy therefore saving paper and toner costs. Make better use of meetings Hold regular meetings to communicate progress, share problems or areas of difficulty, and make certain staff members understand each other's roles. To avoid wasting time prepare your agenda in advance and send it out to the participants prior to the meeting along with any documentation necessary for discussion. Don't let meetings turn into gripe sessions but instead use them to bring co-workers together and collaborate on finding ways to resolve issues or problems. |

Office Humor
A man goes into a pet shop to buy a parrot. The shop owner points to three identical looking parrots on a perch and says, "The parrot to the left costs $500." "Why does the parrot cost so much?" the customer asks. The owner says, "Well, it knows how to use a computer." The customer asks about the next parrot and is told, "That one costs $1,000 because it can do everything the other parrot can do plus it knows how to use the UNIX operating system." Naturally, the increasingly startled man asks about the third parrot and is told, "That one costs $2,000." Needless to say this begs the question, "What can IT do?" The owner replies "To be honest I've never seen it do a thing but the other two call him boss!" |
