With so much emphasis on the environment friendliness of every product, it seems that soy based ink cartridges are making their entry to make printers more environment-friendly, if this news report on Recycle.co.uk is to be believed.

According to the report, a US-based company, Print Recovery Concepts is all set to introduce these soy based ink cartridges, which is expected to reduce the amount of petroleum-based products. Equally importantly, not using the standard petroleum based ink doesn't make these cartridges any inferior in quality or more expensive in price.

Another important advantage that the soy ink cartridges are supposed to have is supposedly the ease of de-inking them while recycling.

Printer buyers in the UK- don't be surprised if you find a "high protein" ink cartridge in printer specifications very soon!
