Kyocera has the most environmentally friendly machines in today’s market. They are the only manufacturer who has currently produced products that are Kyoto 2007 compliant. They have the longest lasting drums and toners and their empty toner cartridges (copiers and printers) are recyclable, biodegradable and non-toxic.

Environmentally Sustainable

Does action to protect the environment in the creation of a page printer place an extra financial burden on the user? Kyocera believes the answer is no. We hold that an environementally-friendly printer with along service life offers true economic advantages. This is the thinking behind our Ecosys printers. The key to realizing the Ecosys ideal is cartridge-free technology: An Ecosys printer employs a drum coated with amorphous silicon. This material is so costly that it was not previously used in the average printer. However, it provides 30 times the durability of conventional drums and more-or-less eliminates the need for drum replacement. As a result, the expense caused from conventional cartridge replacement is avoided. Ecosys technology also promotes recycling since the superior hardness of amorphous silicon enables the use of recycled paper, which tends to damage conventional drums. With their minimal use of consumable items, longer service lives, and contribution to recycling, Ecosys printers offer ecological and economic advantages.
Ecosys: It’s a whole new approach to printing.

Save the environment and save your money. The Kyocera long-life drums reduce maintenance time required on your machine, will significantly reduce the negative environmental impact on drums in our landfills (by as much as 5 to 50 times). By reducing the number of drums required for the life of your printer, you will also save money on consumables. Kyocera toner cartridges are 100% plastic and do not emit hazardous dioxins when incinerated or recycled.
