Introduction
What is Energy Star
After long periods of idleness, Energy Star®copiers switch to Energy Saver Mode or turn themselves off. This allows a yearly decrease in electricity costs of up to 60%.
Copierswithahighcopyingspeedautomaticallyswitch to 2-sidedcopying mode. This reduces the costs for copy media and the volume of paper consumed.
Did you know that manufacturing a sheet of paper requires 10 times as much energy as making a copy?
The conservation of paper thus also has a direct global effect on the conservation of energy.
This copier complies with the Energy Star®energy efficiency criteria.

Use of Recycled Paper

This unit is suited for processing recycled paper that meets the requirementsof ENV 12281 or DIN 19309. For details, consult your local MINOLTA partner.
