Environmental Profile Sheet
The imageRUNNER ADVANCE C5000 Series incorporates leading-edge Canon technologies, each with a stronger environmental focus at every stage of the product life cycle–Produce, Use, and Recycle. These technologies, which focus on Energy Conservation, Resource Conservation, and Pollution Prevention, form the foundation of Canon’s Environmental Management System.
Energy Resource Pollution
Conservation Conservation Prevention
Canon’s Life Cycle Assessment System (LCA) seeks to control carbon emissions at each life cycle stage. The result: An overall CO2 target reduction of up to 20% over previous models. This equates to approximately 0.3 tons of carbon per year, per device.
In order to reduce dependence on petroleum-based materials, Canon uses 100% recycled plastics and bio-based plastics on certain exterior parts.
Smaller and lighter design helps improve transportation efficiency. As a result, carbon emissions per transporter vehicle can be reduced by up to 15%.
Power consumption in Sleep Mode has been reduced to 1W–or less!
Savings in power consumption during a one-week period have been reduced by up to 55%!
By utilizing White LED array technology in its Color Image Reader vs. a traditional Xenon tube, power consumption is reduced by up to 75%!
By utilizing Canon Image Sensor technology over traditional CCD sensors, power consumption is reduced by up to 50%!
Advanced Color RAPID Fusing technologies help reduce power consumption and limit the warm-up period.
New pQ Toner with a lower melting point reduces fusing temperature requirements.
All suppliers are required to meet Canon’s stringent Green Procurement policy and environmental terms. This helps Canon exceed the toughest global standards, such as those set by the European Union’s RoHS Directive, which controls/restricts the use of certain hazardous substances.
Each system is equipped with paper-, toner-, and energy-saving features that help to cut costs and conserve resources.
Long-life parts and higher-yielding supplies help maximize uptime and reduce the amount of materials consumed during the product life cycle.
Through our partnership with the Arbor Day Foundation, Canon will plant a tree for every imageRUNNER ADVANCE model sold on our customer’s behalf. Together, we can help leave a greener footprint
on the Earth for the benefit of future generations. For more information,
