Solutions: HP Global Solutions Catalogues and HP LaserJet Fonts Portals Updated ...
Posted by: Brian R. Kneebone
Technology Consultant, Imaging and Printing Group
I work with large enterprise customers where they look to Hewlett-Packard to solve universal problems you may be interested in, including: reducing wasted prints, facilitating document capture, improving electronic and paper security, reducing costs of specialty printing, etc. Hewlett-Packard has made strong investments in the solutions space to help customers optimize their infrastructure, manage their environment and improve workflows. For some people, this may be as simple as doing more with the printers, MFPs, scanners, etc. they purchase from HP already. For others, they may look for solutions which alter business process to improve efficiencies. If you're thinking along these lines, I strongly you to take a look at the HP Global Solution Catalog and the HP LaserJet Fonts websites which have been recently updated showing more solution partners, better descriptions, more products, etc.
Take care, B.

Hi Daryl,
Very interesting question. I don't have anything to share specifically on soy-based toners, but should HP make some formal announcements with future products or supplies, I'll be sure to make a note in this weblog.
I can say without a doubt, buying original HP supplies has the highest degree of reliability, most consistent yields, longest durability and best toner adhesion. Also, they are often designed for the environment in tandem with the hardware they are designed for (e.g. low melt toners on the HP LaserJet P4015 series to cut energy costs above and beyond instant-on technology HP pioneered).
Since I don't have anything to share with you specifically on soy-based cartridges, I'll offer the same general advice I offer to my enterprise customers. As with purchasing any non-HP supply, be careful about inadvertent damage to the hardware (and who will replace, repair, clean), longevity of the output including flaking toner and pigmentation fading, emmissions and safety, stated yields and what the manufacture does with the spent cartridges (e.g. do they offer free recycling with a monitored closed-loop process?).
I'm not sure if your question was related specifically to environmentalism or particle emmissions or a little of both. Here's some supplimental information.

Again, if something comes up about new environmental technologies which I can announce, I'll certainly start posting those here since there seems to be a lot of interest. Thanks for the question. I think I'll have to include an environmental tag in the blog moving forward. Especially as customers look to reducing paper in general through improved print and capture-based workflows. Regards, B.
