Brief Descriptions of the Technologies
10. Environmentally-friendly toner bottle
A changeover from PS/PP/HDP to PET plastics allows
approximately 40 percent by weight of the toner bottle to be
recycled, and also reduces CO
2
emissions that occur during
the toner bottle manufacturing process.
11. Toner recycling
Enables effective use of resources by recycling (reusing)
the toner left over on the drum surface after image transfer.
12. Recycle-friendly design
To maximize the recycling ratio of machine and component
materials, as well as the ease of performing the recycling in
the field, machine sections and components are designed
so that the recyclable parts can be separated out easily.
In addition, components are designed so that they can be
reused for as long as possible after the machine has
reached its operational lifetime.
