1.2 Preserving the Environment . . .
Minolta supports the challenge of preserving the environment and does
all that it can to actively participate in preventing and resolving ecological
problems.
Our production is certified under ISO 9000 (quality management) and
ISO14001 (environment management).
Takeback and Reutilisation
Used devices, empty toner and drum units and used toner and drum
units are taken back by a local MINOLTA partner and processed for
recycling and reutilisation of materials.
What is Energy Star®?
Introduction
After long periods of idleness, Energy Star® copiers switch to Energy
Saver Mode or turn themselves off. This function can reduce the annual
energy costs for the unit by up to 60%.
Copiers with a high copying speed automatically switch to 2-sided
copying 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
requirements of ENV 12281 or DIN 19309. For details, consult your local
MINOLTA partner.
