Printer recycling: IT-recycling takes care of the disposal and recycling of printers, copiers and multifunctionals.
Small laser printers, which are currently being taken out of service everywhere and replaced by larger multifunctionals, have to be disposed of and recycled responsibly. Many written-off copiers and multifunctionals are also collected by IT-recycling for recycling. It’s vital that printers, copiers and multifunctionals are disposed of and recycled with respect for the environment.
It’s pretty simple to get rid of printers. A quick phone call or e-mail, and we do the rest for you.

IT-recycling takes care of everything for you. You don’t have to do anything yourself. We organise the collection from your workplace and transport for recycling, as well as the subsequent environmental documentation.
If you have unwanted printers that are no more than four years old, we may even be interested in buying them from you. More information about selling us your printers.
When a printer arrives for recycling, the first thing we do is remove the toner. More information about the removal and recycling of toners can be found here.
Laser printers contain plastics, a small amount of iron and stainless steel, brass, aluminium, a power supply, and some low-quality PCBs. Almost all the raw materials used to make a laser printer can be reused, which is why many old printers are often exported as waste to developing countries. Unfortunately, they are often recycled irresponsibly.
Printer recycling certification and legal requirements
