Zusammenfassung:Disposable cartridges for smaller photocopiers and laser printers often have, besides a fresh-tuner container and a residual-toner container, further parts which are functionally important, such as photoconductor drums and loading and developer stations, the additional parts being of considerable significance for the price of the cartridge. The invention is based on the idea of making such disposable cartridges reusable. This is achieved by a method according to which the toner containers of the disposable cartridges are later provided with refill and discharge openings which can be closed by covers, adhesive strips, or stoppers.
