The
best
storage
container
for
the
cartridges
(until
they
are
opened)
is
the
original
shipping
container.
The
plastic
wrapping
prevents
dirt
from
accumulating
on
the
cartridges
and
partially
protects
them
from
humidity
changes.
When
you
ship
a
cartridge,
place
it
in
its
jewel
case
or
in
a
sealed,
moisture-proof
bag
to
protect
it
from
moisture,
contaminants,
and
physical
damage.
Ship
the
cartridge
in
a
shipping
container
that
has
enough
packing
material
to
cushion
the
cartridge
and
prevent
it
from
moving
within
the
container.
