Energy Star Copiers have a feature that allows them to automatically turn off or "go to sleep" after a
period of inactivity, ensuring night and weekend shut off. This auto-feature can reduce a copier's
annual electricity costs by over 60 percent. In addition, high speed copiers will be set to
automatically make double sided copies. An organization's paper costs can be reduce by $60 a month
and the volume of paper sent into the waste stream will decline. It takes 10 times more energy to
produce a piece of paper than it does to make a single copy on a copier. Therefore, using less paper
also means decreased national energy consumption.
Your Minolta Copier has been designed to use the following Recycled Paper
As an Energy Star Partner, Minolta has determined that
this copier meets the Energy Star Guidelines for Energy
Efficiency.
