TonerPlus Announces "First Aid Kit" for HP4000
Austin, Texas — TonerPlus, Inc. is pleased to announce that it has developed a "First Aid Kit" for the
4000 cartridge designed to add additional cycles to 4000 cores. The kit consists of the following
TonerPlus products: mag stabilizer, mag stabilizer bearing, mag roller bearing, mag roller gear, mag roller
bushings and Optical Technologies' Chargelink™ product. The kit will be introduced at this years' World
Expo 2000.

All of these components eventually wear out, typically after the fourth or fifth cycle. The result for remanufacturers can be expensive. They can scrap the core and buy a new one, which typically runs $20 for a virgin high-yield core, or they can simply replace the necessary
mag stabilizers, bushings and roller gears coupled with a Chargelink™. The kit provides a solution that not only adds life to the core, but enhances image density as well.

Shannon Alexander, research and development specialist for TonerPlus, said, " The real value achieved is extended life and an improvement in image density, which has been a common complaint with the 4000."
The kit was developed in conjunction with TonerPlus' 4000 program designed to provide a myriad of cartridge remanufacturing solutions for the popular HP 4000 cartridge. TonerPlus' cornerstone product for their expansive 4000 line is its patented 4000 hopper with mag housing.
TonerPlus also has a superb matched system for the 4000 with its Premiere toner, HANP drum and blade.
Rick Lanthier, senior account representative for TonerPlus, said, "Cartridge remanufacturers have a very inexpensive alternative when they choose to use the TonerPlus 4000 "First Aid Kit" to add life to a 4000 core. Really what your talking about is spending pennies compared
to several dollars per cartridge for the other alternatives," Lanthier added.
