Toner and cartridge refilling
Laser toner cartridges and common ink cartridges refilled at the counter, usually while you wait, for a fraction of the price of a new one.
Surya Computers refills laser toner cartridges and ink cartridges at our counter in Tragad, behind Nirma University. Most refills are done in under half an hour, with a test print before you leave.

Refill or new?
A refill costs a small fraction of a new original cartridge. For an office printing invoices and letters, refills are the sensible choice. For printing that must look perfect, like client-facing colour documents, a new original may be worth it. Laser drums wear out after a few refills, and we'll tell you when the drum is the problem rather than the toner.
Signs it's the drum, not the toner
- Grey shading across the whole page
- A mark that repeats every few centimetres down the page
- A thin black line running the length of every print
Common questions
How many times can a toner cartridge be refilled?
Usually three to five times, depending on the drum's condition. When prints start showing grey background, repeating marks or lines, the drum is worn and needs replacing.
Will a refill damage my printer?
A clean, properly sealed refill with the correct toner doesn't. Problems come from overfilling, wrong toner, or cartridges that leak because seals weren't checked. We test-print every refill.
My printer says 'non-genuine cartridge'. What now?
Many printers show this for refilled or compatible cartridges but print normally after you press OK. Some newer HP models with chip-locked cartridges can block refills; we'll tell you if yours is one of them.
