Will
buying a remanufactured HP printer cartridge void my warranty?
To
answer this question first of all we need to define exactly
what a remanufactured HP printer cartridge is. Remanufactured
printer cartridges are empty original cartridges that have
been cleaned thoroughly and refilled with printer ink. So this
means that our HP printer cartridge is essentially a refilled
HP cartridge.
In
general, if you buy a remanufactured HP printer cartridge from
a reputable company then you know that it has been cleaned
inside and out, checked for any surface damage and checked for
any kinds of electrical damage or faults.
So will
buying a remanufactured HP printer cartridge void your
warranty? The answer to this is a resounding NO! In the US,
legislation has been passed known as the
Magnuson-Moss Warranty Improvement Act. This legislation
states the following:
United States Code Annotated
Title 15 Commerce and Trade
Chapter 50 Consumer Product Warranties
15 Section 2302
”c) No warrantor of a consumer product may condition his
written or implied warranty of such product on the consumer's
using, in connection with such product, any article or service
(other than article or service provided without charge under
the terms of the warranty) which is identified by brand, trade
or corporate name; except that the prohibition of this
subsection be waived by the commission if:
1) The warrantor satisfies the Commission that the warranted
product will function properly only if the article or service
so identified is used in connection with the warranted
product, and
2) the Commission finds that such a waiver is in the public
interest.”
So you can feel safe in knowing that you can purchase
remanufactured HP
ink cartridges
without voiding your
warranty.
