Virgin Cartridges are the ones that you get with your new printer,  the OEM cartridges. These cartridges are freshly produced, using fresh raw materials.

Sometimes empty and worn out,  disposed cartridges are used to manufacture new cartridges. The benefits of recycling cartridges are that they are used instead of sitting in a landfill for years and it avoid exhaustion of fresh material required for manufacturing new cartridges. But the process of grounding up and using them for manufacture,  produces emissions and wastes that are harmful for the environment. It is more safe and economical to reuse and refill cartridge than recycle them.

Many people replace their exhausted cartridges with new ones. They dispose of the empty cartridges. These cartridges are collected,  examined, cleaned, tested and refilled for further use. The reasons for reusing/ refurbishing / re-manufacturing old cartridges are for lessening waste collection, reducing the use of energy and petroleum for manufacturing new cartridges, and thus less impact of carbon footprint.
