copier cartridges WILL NOT WORK in a Laserjet. They are
physically compatible, but they do not work.
Why?
The toner is incompatible with the process that the CX engine uses.
It is attracted to charges of the opposite polarity.
What is the physics behind that? AFAIK the toner is elkectrically neutral
(it would be veyery odd if it wasn't).
In fact IIRC the image formation and trasfer process in the CX (and every
other laser printer I've been inside) requires the toner to be attracted
ot electrodes of both polarities.
