ABSTRACT:
The invention includes a device for separating a toner hopper from a mounting member so that the cartridge can be reliably resealed and refilled with toner for repeated use. A container holds the cartridge while leaving the outer edge of each of the spacers exposed. In one embodiment, the container is provided with wheels that travel in a track. The container moves linearly along the track past a blade that cuts through the outer edge of the spacers. In a second embodiment, the container is positioned on a rail aligned to pass between two spaced-apart blades. The rail is mounted on a linear bearing so that the rail moves linearly past the blades to cut through both of the outer edges of the spacers in a single pass. This allows the hopper to be separated from the mounting member. Finally, a vacuum system is provided for removing waste debris.
