I walked through the cluster and noticed a toner cartridge (used, I
assumed) and packaging materials thrown messily into the paper
recycling bin next to ajax.

My understanding was that toner cartridges get sent back to HP for
recycling there, and that they aren't to be disposed of in the
garbage.  They certainly aren't recyclable via the white paper bins.

Do we have a security problem with unauthorised people doing toner
replacements, or did someone intend to come back for it?

I cleaned up the mess, reboxed the cartridge and placed it in the
storage room.
