Les Olson Company and Sharp introduce new toner cartridge recycling program

March 10, 2008

Sharp and Les Olson Company have introduced a new recycling program to promote responsible use and care of the environment.

Sharp Electronics will provide a pre-paid UPS shipping label for the return of qualified used toner cartridges. Les Olson Company can also accept the qualified cartridges for shipment back to Sharp. For program registration and to check to see if your toner is on the list of recyclable cartridges, please visit the Sharp recycling information page.

In addition, to facilitate bulk shipments and in order to help conserve resources and reduce energy use, Sharp provides a toner cartridge shipping carton. This carton can be conveniently placed in the customer’s mailroom for shipment of up to 10 used cartridges.

Reinforcing its commitment to the environment, in 2007, Sharp Electronics received the Excellence in Partnership Green Contractor Award as well as the Evergreen Award from the U.S. Government’s General Services Administration and the Coalition for Government Procurement.

As additional proof of commitment to the environment, Les Olson Company offers the following Sharp technology to help and preserve the environment:

  • Sharp MFPs are Energy Star Qualified
  • New, state-of-the-art toner cartridges are one-fifth the size of conventional toner cartridges, requiring less packaging material and significantly less power consumption
  • Organic photoconductive drum unit has an extended life of up to one million pages
  • Sharp Fax Machines require an extremely low power consumption of less than 1 watt when operating in standby mode
  • Sharp’s high-speed products deliver energy savings through external heat fusing technology (using an external system to heat thin-walled steel fusing rollers)

Les Olson Company knows color, and understands the value of green. Please contact Les Olson Company today at (801) 486-7431 for more details about its recycling program.
