How Smarter Print Solutions Help Reduce Waste and Boost Sustainability

Public sector organisations, from local councils and government agencies to education and healthcare trusts, face constant pressure to deliver high‑quality services while managing tight budgets and meeting sustainability targets. 

Our latest range of multifunction printers (MFPs) offer enhanced environmental performance, and when combined with the efficiencies of our Managed Print Services, we can help you progress towards your sustainability goals with greater confidence and control.

 

Toner Efficiency. 

Our latest multifunction printers use high‑yield, lower‑melt toner designed to cut consumable waste and reduce day‑to‑day energy consumption. 

Smarter colour management and toner‑saving modes help maintain efficient printing across busy public‑sector environments, from classrooms to shared offices, making it easier to support your long‑term sustainability goals. 

And with our Managed Print Services, toner meter readings are taken automatically and remotely. You’ll only receive new toner when you actually need it, eliminating the need to stockpile supplies and ensuring replacements happen only when cartridges are completely empty. 

 

Lower Energy Consumption.

Faster warm‑up times, optimised power‑down modes and more efficient internal components help you lower energy use day‑to‑day without compromising performance. Because low‑melt toner requires lower operating temperatures, even high‑volume print jobs consume less energy, supporting greener day‑to‑day operations. 

 

Total Energy Consumption (TEC).

Our latest devices achieve reduced TEC values, up to 13% overall and as much as 40% in standby mode, delivering measurable energy savings across everyday operations.

 

Intelligent Print Management. 

Print management software adds another layer of sustainability by giving organisations more control over how printing happens day today. 

Through automated print rules such as enforcing double sided printing, converting emails to mono by default, or preventing unnecessary single page colour prints, you can significantly cut waste without relying on users to manually change settings. sided printing, converting emails to mono by default, or preventing unnecessary single page, converting emails to mono by default, or preventing unnecessary single page colour prints. 

Colour usage can be restricted or redirected to mono only devices, helping reduce both energy consumption and toner costs. User or department level quotas ensure teams stay accountable for their print habits, while real time dashboards give you complete visibility of printing activity across your organisation. only devices, helping reduce both energy consumption and toner costs.

Improved Recyclability. 

We design our devices with recyclable materials and long‑lasting components, making end‑of‑life processing more efficient and reducing the volume of waste going to landfill. This supports stronger circularity as part of your organisation’s sustainability strategy. 

 

Simple Toner Recycling. 

Our Toner Recycling Scheme offers a simple and responsible way for your organisation to recycle used toner cartridges. 

We provide a variety of collection options that make it easy for your teams to return empty cartridges, ensuring they’re handled responsibly and diverted from landfill. 

 

Giving Devices a New Life. 

Our New Life Refurbishment Programme extends the life of devices through careful refurbishment, testing and quality assurance. By choosing a refurbished device, you support circularity, reduce waste and lower procurement costs without compromising performance. 

With smarter devices, efficient consumables and built‑in circularity, our print solutions give public sector organisations a practical and measurable way to improve environmental performance.
