In the second report, one of leading specialists from Delacamp (Germany), Volker Kappius showed the ineffectiveness of using cheap newly-made cartridges in the outsourcing process. The speaker has in detail reviewed the possible reasons of low costs of newly-made cartridges (raw-materials, patents infringement, and maximal economy on everything). He also demonstrated that a cause-effect chain of “low price” – “low printing quality” – “low outsourcing quality” can serve as a basis for focusing on quality remanufacturing, not on low quality newly-made cartridges.
