We need to do the following before anything goes to the Recycling box, to make it safe to take apart and to keep good stuff.
- Save all network cards in a box on the Sorting table.
- Save all HP AC adapters that have colorful 3-pronged ends.
- If the device has a top-loading toner cartridge, remove it and check for small, green circuit boards. Cartridges that have them go below in the "Chipped Toner." Those without go in the "Clean Toner." If the machine has side-loading toner, if the toner is in a soft or clear plastic container, or if it appears to be leaking, do not try to remove it. Ask for assistance.
- Remove cords/cables and cut off the AC adapters. Each part goes to its own box on the Sorting table.
- If the device has number buttons, a scanner attached to it, is labeled a fax, or is very heavy, ask for help before proceeding further...
- Otherwise it can go straight to the Recycle gaylord.
