Q: 2. Do you8 have a recycle program for ink and toner cartridges?

A: Even though I usually buy these cartridges from B&H, I take my used ones to Staples for recycling. I get credit for them in the same way I do for ink cartridges I've bought from Staples. I find it easier to just take them in when I go for office supplies than to pack them up and ship them somewhere (like back to B&H). My guess is that other stores that take cartridges for recycling (e.g., Best Buy) would also take them.
