Saving money and the environment
We are committed to environmental sustainability and are continually improving our printers to reduce their
impact on the environment.
Saving paper and toner
Studies show that as much as 80% of the carbon footprint of a printer is related to paper usage. You can
significantly reduce your carbon footprint by using recycled paper and the following printing suggestions, such
as printing on both sides of the paper and printing multiple pages on one side of a single sheet of paper.
For information on how you can quickly save paper and energy using one printer setting, see
on page
88.
Using recycled paper
As an environmentally conscious company, we support the use of recycled office paper produced specifically
for use in laser printers. For more information on recycled papers that work well with your printer, see
