Abstract

This is the second of a two-case series (IMD-3-0788 and IMD-3-0789). Xerox Europe Ltd''s take-back policy for its products, packaging and cartridges continues to create internal friction.

These and many other issues needed to be resolved or internal support for the waste free policy would disintegrate.
