\section{Toner Cartridges}

The office has, at points, ordered two kinds of cartridges. Both can
be recycled. Currently, Nashua cartridges are easier to deal with
since they are one of the standard Office Depot items. For
completeness, information about both is listed below.

The easiest way to recycle cartridges is through Office Depot. They
will recycle any cartridge they sell. Just send email to
officedepot@mit.edu letting them know where the empty toner cartridges
are, and they will send someone by to pick them up. This is the
fastest method; others are listed below for completeness.

\subsection{HP Cartridges}
The HP toner cartridges should not be thrown away.  They should be recycled.
To recycle them, put them in a box and slap a UPS label on it.  The UPS label
can be found in one of three ways:

 1) Look in the manual inside the box.  There is one there.
 2) If there is no manual inside the box, then look in the office drawer
    (where the machine room keycard is kept) and take one from there.
 3) If there are none there or you can't find them, then call HP at
    1-800-752-0900 Ext. 1872 and talk to the nice lady there.  She will send
    you some labels.  

After you have slapped the label on, call UPS and ask them to come pick up.
Or check with the Campus Activities Complex.  They might be able to work it
into their UPS stuff.

\subsection{Nashua Cartridges}

The Nashua toner cartridges should not be thrown away. When one is
used up, remove it from the printer, without spilling and making a
mess, and place it in the bag that comes with the cartridge. Seal the
bag shut. Put a new cartridge in the printer and put the old cartridge
in the box so that it can be recycled. Be sure to label the box USED
or DEAD so that people can tell when it's time to reorder toner
cartridges. The toner cartridges can be returned in sets of four by
calling 1-800-333-3439. They will ask for an address to send a
shipping label to. Once you get a shipping label, you can return all
four of the cartridges at once.

New toner cartridges can be ordered through Office Depot. The item is
on the check-off order form under Toner Cartridges-Nashua, 92291A
Recycled. Get the appropriate people to sign the form, and then send
the form in to Office Depot.

\section{Recycling}

There are four blue bins at the back of the office devoted to (non-soda
can) recyclables.  Items without a deposit go in the bins with the
recycling logo on them.  Items with a bottle/can deposit go in the bins
with the dollar sign (\$) on them.  Non-deposit items may be recycled by
leaving them in the big rolling bins near the W20 loading dock.

The latest guidelines (as of February 2002):

\fixme{Is this part correct?

Glass (clear and colored), aluminum, tin and plastics (\#1 \& \#2 only) can 
be mixed together. These items need to be rinsed first. 
}

Newspaper and white paper can be put into the large bin near the
front of the office.

The empty deposit soda cans should be sorted by maker (Coca Cola or
whatever) into cardboard flats, and then taken down to La Verde's.  A
set of five flats should be six dollars of deposit refund.  Leave the
deposit in the CokeComm can in the 'fridge.  The current CokeComm is
rewarding people who do this with a free can of soda for every five
flats.

Empty deposit bottles, in the blue bins with the dollar sign (\$),
should also be taken to La Verde's when the bins get full.

\section{General Office Cleanliness}

\subsection{Office Cleaning Hour}
Office Cleaning hour happens once a week, and is announced
on the sipb zephyr class.  During this time, 
people in the office should pickup and clean up around the office.
If there are any dirty keyboards, please make sure to clean them too.

\subsection{Trash and Recycling}
When you are done with your can of soda, rinse it out and put it in
the cardboard soda flats at the back of the office.  When you are done
with your food, throw the wrappings away.  Remember, do not throw
anything dangerously sharp into the trash.

\subsection{Disasters}
In case of major disaster, there is a SIPB bucket, sponges, and
cleanser on the refrigerator at the back of the room.

\section{The Fridge}

Officially, anything not maintained by CokeComm may be thrown out of
the fridge.  Unofficially, anything not named and dated may be thrown
out, {\it especially} if it starts smelling bad (at which time it
should definitely be thrown out).

The last known thorough fridge cleaning occurred in June of 1998, when
the office carpet was replaced.
If you clean the fridge out, do not forget to
empty the water-collection tray located beneath it.  Feel free to use
the gloves, sponges, bucket and cleanser located on the fridge.

\section{Machines}

It's very important that machine hardware be kept in a proper state. This
means that all connectors should be screwed into the machine where possible.
The cables should also be tucked out of the way so that they don't get
accidentally tugged. Power cables should be connected to a power bar mounted
on the underside of the table or desk. Ethernet cables should be connected to
the nearest ethernet transceiver, also mounted on the bottom of a desk.
All slack cable should be coiled up and cable-tied to keep it off the floor,
so that the floor can be clean. Finally, laptop drop cables should be kept
nicely coiled, and clipped and velcroed onto a desk.
