The standards committees are composed of representatives of relevant interests including producers, consumers and other users, ret
3、ailers, governments, educational institutions, technical, professional and trade societies, and research and testing organizations. Any given standard is developed on the consensus of views expressed by such representatives.CGSB has been accredited by the Standards Council of Canada as a national st

The standards that it develops and offers as National Standards of Canada conform to the criteria and procedures established for this purpose by the Standards Council of Canada. In addition to standards it publishes as National Standards of Canada, CGSB produces sta

29、er cartridges are toner cartridges that have been refurbished for reuse. They are office supplies for laser print devices. The industry for remanufactured toner cartridges was developed as a result of a desire by Canadians to purchase more environmentally preferable products for use in the office wh
30、ile considering costs compared to original equipment manufacturer (OEM) toner cartridges.Historically, a perception existed amongst consumers that remanufactured toner cartridges were inferior to OEM toner cartridges in terms of quality, cost and lifetime performance. This standard is written to pre
31、sent testing criteria for setting equal or better quality requirements and to specify requirements for warranty information and packaging instructions that a remanufactured toner cartridge shall meet in a qualification program. This standard supports the national economy by providing clear and measu
32、rable attributes specifically for remanufactured toner cartridge products. The standard protects consumers by specifying the requirements for cartridge warranties and quality expectations. It is the foundation for a national conformity program, thereby facilitating trade. Furthermore, the standard s
33、upports green procurement initiatives and sustainable development by reusing otherwise discarded toner cartridge components in the production of remanufactured toner cartridges. The fundamental goal of this standard is to ensure that a spent toner cartridge (the casing and other components) is reuse
34、d as much as possible in the new remanufactured product, and that the end product is not merely a composite of new components. The integrity of the remanufacturing process, i.e. to ensure a robust, quality end product, is also integral to the standard.1 CGSB 2017 All rights reservedCAN/CGSB-53.148-2
35、017Supersedes CAN/CGSB-53.148-2011Remanufactured toner cartridges1 ScopeThis National Standard of Canada specifies the manufacturing, performance and labelling requirements for remanufactured toner cartridges for monochrome laser print devices, including but not limited to printers, multi-function d
36、evices, copiers and facsimile (fax) machines.NOTE Some cartridges, because of their original OEM design and construction, may be more suitable than others for remanufacturing. Moreover, the life of the drum depends on the roughness of the paper used, the amount of continuous use (causing overheating
37、), the length of time the printer is left switched on, and the quantity of graphics (as distinct from text) printed. Consequently, no definite statement can be made about the number of times a cartridge can be remanufactured.The testing and evaluation of a product against this standard may require t
38、he use of materials and/or equipment that could be hazardous. This document does not purport to address all the safety aspects associated with its use. Anyone using this standard has the responsibility to consult the appropriate authorities and to establish appropriate health and safety practices in
39、 conjunction with any applicable regulatory requirements prior to its use.2 Normative referencesThe following documents contain provisions that, through reference in this text, constitute provisions of this National Standard of Canada.
