Use of Canon Products

ReadingUniversity

2007

How green do you want your business to be?

Workgroup print solution (fax,scanner,printer,copier) into one device reducing the total resource burden

On-demand/induction heating cuts warm up time and reduces power consumption by as much as 78%

User network log-on (single sign-on) reduces waste by only allowing registered users access to the device

Secure Print option reduces the number of print jobs

Set up Personal Mailboxes making each end user print to a folder on the device

ReadingUniversity

Business Impact

Reduce print costs by up to 3% of revenue

Help reduce damage to the environment as well

Reduce power consumption by 78%

Save paper consumption by 40%

Save Trees with double-sided print

How could using double-sided print as standard help the environment?

On average 1 tree makes 17 reams of copy paper(www.conservatree.com)

With the double-sided function on Canon’s new iRC4580i device this could save 9 trees per year

(Average paper use by iRC4580i device is 364 reams/yr (15,184 sheets AMPV) Assumes 40% saving: 146, saves 9 trees)

ReadingUniversity

2007

How could using devices with low standby energy consumption help the environment?

The new iRC4580i device uses only 3 watts in standby mode. 687 watts less electricity than older devices*

This is the equivalent energy saving needed to run a microwave oven

Over a year this could equate to the energy needed for 17,500 roast chickens

*compared to standby mode of iRC2105: 690wattsAssumes running a 700w microwave, 25 min per chicken at full power

Background to Document Imaging Strategy

Photocopier contract renewal in 2004

In 2004 the Customer:

Spent approx. £2.6M pa on Document Imaging

2,585 stand alone devices

Ratio of printing devices to staff of 1:7

ReadingUniversity

2007

Opportunities

Industry standard ratio range from 1:20 to 1:50

Technology improving MFDs replacing the need for stand

alone printers Reduction in environmental

footprint Financial savings “Document Imaging Strategy”

Project created

ReadingUniversity

2007

Aims and Anticipated Benefits

To achieve a ratio of printing devices of 1:20

To decrease the number of stand alone devices, leading to less: Energy and Paper consumption Consumable expenditure on

printers, fax and copiers Equipment purchases for scanners,

printers, faxes and copiers IT maintenance of a controlled and

reduced fleet

ReadingUniversity

Anticipated Risks

User buy in - “I don’t want to walk to collect my printing”

Management buy in Technical issues - do the machines work

within the current environment? Fleet / contingency issues All of above can be managed by pro-

active communication, thorough testing and establishing a working relationship with the supplier.

The Customer today

Devices reduced by 63% Ratio of 1:15 Savings of £1.4M over 3 years (approx.. 20%

pa). Additional savings on energy Savings will continue as MFDs are replaced

by MFDs Easier fleet to manage User acceptance of the change Confident they are following a “Best Practice”

model and working to make it even better
