Over 40 million printer cartridges go into UK landfill sites each year and this is increasing annually. Buying refilled cartridges are a good way to prevent this waste and are often cheaper than new ones. Cartidge World supply refilled cartridges and can refill your empty ones - see
http://www.cartridgeworld.org There are also plenty of charity schemes around that benefit from recycling cartridges - see
http://www.actionaidrecycling.org.uk/ or
http://www.inkagain.co.uk/ If you're buying a new printer, opt for one that uses cartridges that can be refilled, or that can easily accept generic or refilled cartridges.
