Canon’s Life Cycle Assessment System (LCA) seeks to help control carbon emissions at
each life cycle stage.
In order to help reduce dependence on petroleum-based materials, Canon uses
100% recycled plastics* and bio-based plastics on certain exterior parts.
Power consumption in Sleep Mode is as low as 1.0W!
Savings in power consumption during a one-week period have been reduced when compared
to its predecessor model, the imageRUNNER 1700 Series!
Power consumption is reduced by utilizing White LED array technology in its Color
Image Reader versus using a traditional Xenon tube!
RAPID Fusing technologies help reduce power consumption and limit the
warm-up period.
QF 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 help reduce the
amount of materials consumed during the product life cycle.
* Excluding a small amount of additives to improve physical properties.
