FAQs

What is a remanufactured cartridge?

An empty or used original cartridge which has been recycled, refilled and refurbished to a high standard. Remanufactured cartridges contain the same quality of ink as original cartridges. Remanufactured cartridges supplied by GreenTech are 100% guaranteed and should perform to the same standards as their OEM equivalents.

What is a compatible cartridge?

Compatible cartridges are brand new cartridges supplied by an independent manufacturer. Compatible cartridges are manufactured as an alternative product or under license to the same standards as original cartridges but are normally significantly cheaper.

What does OEM mean?

OEM stands for ‘Original Equipment Manufacturer', meaning a cartridge manufactured by the same company as the printer.
