Difference between OEM, Compatible and Remanufactured OEM
Original Equipment
Manufacturer (“OEM”) cartridges are brand new toner cartridges
bearing the original brand names, such as HP, Lexmark,
Brother, Canon, etc.
COMPATIBLE
Compatible laser toner cartridges are generally
new toner cartridges manufactured by third-parties to meet or
exceed OEM specifications. Compatible cartridges generally
contain new components and are an economical alternative to
expensive name brand
cartridges.
REMANUFACTURED
Remanufactured
cartridges are an economical alternative to expensive name
brand OEM cartridges. These cartridges are professionally
remanufactured and recycled to meet OEM specifications of
quality and reliability. Typically, remanufacturing involves
disassembling, inspecting, cleaning, replacing parts,
reassembling, and filling with toner. Once the remanufacturing
process is complete, the cartridge is then print tested,
sealed, and packaged for
resale.
