Are you experiencing problems with your HP printer and see an on-screen message that displays, ‘Supply Memory Error 10.1000’, ’10.0002’ or something similar?
If the answer is yes then you’ve likely already tried switching your printer off and back on, removing and reinserting toners and you just can’t fix your printer problem, nothing is working and you’re ready to give up!
Recycling and the environment have been hot topics over recent years, and with documentaries such as Blue Planet 2; that showed us the impact we are having on our world’s oceans and wildlife, it’s clear that everyone on our planet need to do more to recycle or reduce our use of plastics before it’s too late.
Whilst you might read a new environmental story every day, these problems are nothing new. Throw away plastics are being produced at alarming rates and not enough is done to reduce the numbers when you consider it can take up to 1000 years for plastics to degrade.
When it comes to printer cartridges, we published some shocking statistics back in 2013 that show that from 65 million cartridges that are used solely in the UK each year, just 9.75 million are recycled, today the statistics will be much worse.
And overall in the UK we purchase around 3.7 million tonnes of plastic each year, of which just 842,000 tonnes are recycled (22.7%). In the world oceans, there is approximately 150 million tonnes floating around, so why don’t we do more??
