Eco-Friendly Printing: Reduce Waste and Save Resources

Print Less, Print Smarter

The most effective way to reduce your printing environmental impact is to print less. Preview documents before printing, use digital alternatives when possible, and combine multiple pages onto single sheets using your printer's N-up printing feature.

Use Duplex Printing

Printing on both sides of the paper can cut your paper consumption in half. Enable automatic duplex printing as your default setting to make this effortless.

Choose Recycled Paper

Recycled paper uses less energy and water to produce than virgin paper. Look for paper with high post-consumer recycled content for everyday printing.

Recycle Cartridges

Used ink and toner cartridges should never go into regular waste. Take advantage of manufacturer recycling programmes or drop them off at participating retail locations.

Energy-Efficient Settings

Enable your printer's power-saving and sleep mode features to reduce electricity consumption when the printer is idle. Consider scheduling the printer to turn off outside business hours.

Draft Mode for Internal Documents

Use draft quality settings for internal documents and proofs. Draft mode uses significantly less ink or toner while still producing readable output.
