This case largely affects the online retailers of these products, as well as the one from offline. An immediate solution is required.”
The company continues, “With over 38 years of R&D experience in imaging supplies industry, Print-Rite has already developed an IP safe solution in 2014 to address this issue.

The high transfer rate toner powder and corresponding OPC reduce the waste of toner powder.”
