Environmental Advice for Users

Draft 2013/03/26

Users in the EU, Switzerland and Norway

Consumables yield
Please refer to either the User’s Manual for this information or the packaging of the consumable.
Recycled paper
The machine can use recycled paper which is produced in accordance with European standard EN 12281:2002 or DIN 19309. For products using EP printing technology, the machine can print on 64g/m2 paper, which contains less raw materials and represents a significant resource reduction.
Duplex printing (if applicable)
Duplex printing enables both sides of a sheet of paper to be used. This saves paper and reduces the size of printed documents so that fewer sheets are used. We recommend that this feature is enabled whenever you print.
Toner and ink cartridge return program
Toner and ink cartridge for recycling will be accepted free of charge from users in accordance with local regulations.
For details about the return program, please refer to the Web page below or consult your service person.
https://www.ricoh-return.com/
Energy efficiency
The amount of electricity a machine consumes depends as much on its specifications as it does on the way you use it. The machine is designed to allow you to reduce electricity costs by switching to Ready mode after it prints the last page. If required, it can immediately print again from this mode.
If no additional prints are required and a specified period of time passes, the device switches to an energy saving mode.
In these modes, the machine consumes less power (watts). If the machine is to print again, it needs a little longer to return from an energy saving mode than from Ready mode.
For maximum energy savings, we recommend that the default setting for power management is used.
Products that comply with the Energy Star requirement are always energy efficient.

Note for the Battery and/or Accumulator Symbol (For EU countries only)

FiO
FiO
Draft 2013/03/26
In accordance with the Battery Directive 2006/66/EC Article 20 Information for end-users Annex II, the above symbol is printed on batteries and accumulators.
This symbol means that in the European Union, used batteries and accumulators should be disposed of separately from your household waste.
In the EU, there are separate collection systems for not only used electrical and electronic products but also batteries and accumulators.
Please dispose of them correctly at your local community waste collection/recycling centre.
