HP Wants YOU to Feel Good About Recycling!



I had to get more printer ink for my printer. In the past I have found that it is more cost effective to just buy a new printer because the ink is obscenely expensive. ..and new printers come with new ink. But for now, I have a semi decent printer/scanner set up, and the replacement ink cost about half of what a comparable new printer would cost, so I just got a two pack of black ink at Costco, for about $53.
HP asks their customers to recycle. Once you struggle with all the packing material, you can read about how you can feel good about recycling.
That is all and good, but maybe they should stop using so much packing material in the first place! I got two printer cartridges.

                                          They aren't very big:  


       
But look how BIG the pile of packaging is! Are they really serious about recycling?
