If Canon's asking for people to send used toner cartridges back for safe disposal, it may not be as much of a "stop reloading" scam as it might appear. A number of write-white print engines use a drum coated with selenium, which makes a great drum but is quite poisonous. I don't know if the SX uses selenium (I doubt it, since it would make for an awfully expensive "one shot" catridge), but it might well have something else equally nasty. It'd still be a ploy, but it might be a complex ploy :-)... -- Amanda Walker, InterCon Systems Corporation -- "If we don't succeed, then we run the risk of failure." -- Dan Quayle
