What are some tips for reducing the amount and/or cost of copies made in a department?
- Print in black and white whenever possible
- Print duplex (double-sided) whenever possible
- Use electronic transmission of documents instead of hardcopy printing
- Use Energy Saver/sleep mode when the device is not in use.
- Replace older products with new, more energy-efficient devices.
- Consolidate assets, replacing individual copiers, faxes and printers with multifunction systems. Consolidating into one multi-function device (MFD), can result in energy savings of up to 50 percent.
- Take advantage of power-saver features built into your systems and DO NOT turn off devices at night.
- Return unused supplies.
