Disposing of waste
It is the printer owner’s responsibility to ensure that waste is disposed of in accordance with all local, state and federal regulations.
There are registered waste management companies that have been authorized by local authorities to manage waste collection and disposal and that will manage waste management and disposal on your behalf.
We recommend that you contact your local authorities for a list of authorized companies, or you can search for the nearest authorized waste disposal company on the Worldwide Web.
Make sure that any waste disposal company you engage for this task is able to provide you with the necessary documentation proving their authority to legally manage and dispose of waste.
You will be legally responsible for failing to dispose of waste according to local, state and federal legislation.
When you have established an authorized waste management company, they will need to know the type of chemical that requires disposal and you will need to determine the type of agreement that best meets your requirements.
They will need to know the common name or chemical CAS number of the main solvent found in the supplies. This information can be obtained on the Material Safety Data Sheets (MSDS) available for all supplies at http://www.hp.com/hpinfo/globalcitizenship/environment/productdata/index.html
